Welcome to our website, we cannot wait to see you in july!!!

If you know us, it's no secret that the beginning of our relationship was a little crazy. We swam as teammates on the Tabor College swim team all year (2018-2019) and became friends with three weeks of school left. It had been one of the craziest years of both our lives and we found sanity and empathy in each other from the first time we talked. For the record, from the first day we got to know each other I (Maddie) wondered what it would be like to marry him (cheesy but true). We spent the last few weeks of school boxing (well, Evan tried to teach me), laughing, Kansas adventuring, and staying up late sharing stories. It was a comfort to have one another in the chaos of the end of the school year and we continued communication through summer and into Evan's year teaching in Honduras (2019-2020). After Evan was urgently flown back to the states when COVID-19 began, he taught at Yamhill Carlton elementary school in Oregon as I finished up some classes and began the nursing program at Everett Community College. God has been unbelievably faithful and gracious in our lives through this entire journey, during both the moments we are aware enough to notice it and the times we are too blind to see. He has blessed us unconditionally and has allowed us to grow in closeness and maturity beyond what either of us thought possible. In the spring of 2021 Evan moved his life up to Snohomish, Washington to give us a chance to be closer and really see if this relationship was the real deal. Turns out it was. A few months living in the same town was all we needed to realize how badly we wanted this to be our forever. And here we are now, still only at the beginning of the true adventure!
