This is the first photo Marla took of Brett! Celebrating the end of 1st year studio in spring 2019 - we weren't even dating yet!

An impromptu trip out to the Salt Flats in Utah turned into the most romantic non-date two colleagues could ever have. We started dating a couple weeks later!

Summer 2019 Pure Water Days Race - quickly becoming a summertime tradition for us.

Our first pumpkin carving contest.

During our time abroad we visited Ulldecona - home of the oldest olive trees in Spain. Our guide told us how couples used to come to this tree when they wanted to get married - and here we are, 4 years later!

We tried to escape covid quarantine and enjoy the wildflowers whenever we could.

Christmas 2021 - Peaches is obviously having the time of her life!

We spend a lot of time walking through the woods or the prairie - but it never gets boring.

In Canada to celebrate Jack + Shelley's wedding! Foreshadowing...?

Sometimes we change out of our hiking clothes for party apparel!

5:30 am - just beginning the ambitious Enchantments through hike! We tried to take a selfie every mile of the 20-mile trek...

...and it was the most spectacular day!

Brett proposed on a hike at our favorite "Rocky Place" in Chippewa Falls. As the saying goes, "First comes love, then comes kitties, then comes marriage!" ... or something like that!
