We met playing Ultimate Frisbee. Tim's team was playing their summer league championship game, and one of Erika's friends from college was on Tim's team. Erika had moved to Seattle only two weeks prior, and her friend invited Erika to watch the game. We hit it off at the game, and hiked Mailbox Peak a week later for our first date.

In February of 2017 Tim and Erika had the great fortune to secure spots on a 16-day Grand Canyon river rafting trip for the summer of 2018. Tim decided over a year in advance that he would propose to Erika on the trip. On day 13, during a lunch stopover at Havasu Creek, Tim knelt in a pool of crystal blue water and asked Erika to marry him (and she said yes!).
