Actually yes, we are married already! We prefer to do some things in life a little out of order :) We enjoyed a small, quaint ceremony in Rocky Mountain National Park in 2018 with the intent of later celebrating with our closest friends and family. This dream has now become reality and we are so grateful to be able to celebrate our union in August with our closest friends and family. We now reside in Bend, Oregon and would be honored if you could make the trip to this magical setting. Come celebrate with us!! How We Met: Our paths crossed in late April, 2015 when we had our first date at Union Station in Denver, CO. At this date we realized we were both born in the same hospital in the same city in Corpus Christi, Texas. What are the chances?! We knew then it was destiny (and we promise we are not related :). We laughed so hard at our first date we snorted our beer! Dave soon got to witness (a lot of) Lara's obnoxiously loud, guttural laugh and luckily stuck around for more dates to get to know each other more. Our relationship progressed and we quickly realized we wanted to be in each others lives for a very long while... From there, we descended upon a myriad of life events, including graduate school for Lara, trips abroad, engagement, pregnancy, and baby Jules! We recently moved to Bend, Oregon and have loved being in a smaller, quieter place to raise our daughter. We certainly miss our friends in Colorado, but are eager to expand our life in Central Oregon.
