First & Forever

We met when we were 6 years old, during music circles in our kindergarten class in Spicer, Mn. Although we were in different homeroom classes, it didn't stop the crush we had on each other :) Brennen was invited to Courtney's 1st grade birthday party at the water slide in Spicer, and was the ONLY boy there. This is where it all began. In 4th grade, Brennen asked Courtney if she would be his girlfriend by giving a mutual friend a note for her to circle "Yes" or "No". In true Courtney fashion, she didn't circle an answer, she just wrote "Sure" and circled that. April 29th 1999 was where it all "officially" started. We dated until our Sophomore year of high school, when we sadly ended our relationship. We both went our separate ways and experienced years of our lives without each other. We would sometimes run into each other during holidays at home in the first years of college, but after a while, we lost touch. 17 years later, we both went through very similar experiences that ended with each of us moving back to the Spicer area, which by the way, neither one of us knew the other was back in town. We were able to reconnect and thus our new story started to unfold. Now, two years later, two new jobs, an engagement, an elopement to Colorado, a new house, and a baby, we are excited to be able to celebrate all of these exciting life events with our family and close friends. We look forward to being able to celebrate with you all and are so very fortunate for every single one of you in our lives. You have all been a part of our story in one way or another and have supported us through it all whether it was in the beginning, middle or now :) We love you all!
