We first crossed paths back in 6th grade gym class. At that time, neither of us could imagine just how important that ordinary day would be. What started with me (Riley) giving Ethan relationship advice and telling him how to ask out a girl, you know important 12 year old stuff, turned into a friendship we didn’t know we needed. This friendship would last throughout middle school, high school, and the rest of our lives. For the past 10 years we have been by each other through wins, successes, losses, and failures. All cases brought with endless memories. What’s most special about our story is that it is rooted in friendship. Through every season of life we have been each other’s constant, and somewhere along the way, that friendship grew into something more amazing than we could have thought. Now, at 22, we get to look back on the last decade with ample gratitude for the journey that began on the first day of middle school in gym class. We are so thrilled to start this next chapter of our lives together and grow in love and friendship. It is crazy to see that the best part of our story is still ahead of us.
