We met at a halloween party our sophomore year of college at the University of Michigan. I was dressed as Eeyore from Winnie the Poo. To this day, when I am grumpy I tell Clark "you knew who I was from the day that you met me." Clark was dressed as a "lumberjack," which was really just him wearing his usual flannel. We spent the next three years taking in all Ann Arbor had to offer, until we moved out to Colorado to officially begin our lives together. Since then, we have been best friends, roommates, adventure buddies, running partners, and dog-parents to our most beloved pup, Sasha. We are celebrating our wedding in this small, intimate (borderline elopement ) fashion because this honestly isn't the biggest event in our lives. It's just one small event in the longer story of our commitment, friendship, and love for each other that always has and always will continue to exist.
