Our Adventure Begins

Although our paths may have crossed many times in the halls of LMU, or at Delta Gamma formals, or at a bar in Manhattan Beach it wasn't until 8 years later that our paths collided. Fate had it that Graham befriended my best friend, Jenna, through kickball in Denver and upon realizing that their birthdays were days apart they planned their 30th birthdays together. From that weekend on a strong friendship was formed between us, but it wouldn't be until a year and 2 months later when I packed up and moved to Denver that we'd finally go on our first date and the rest has been an adventure ever since.

We love taking road trips together - whether it's across states or just up to the mountains. For our summer adventure, we set our eyes on Banff, Canada and so the pups could join we decided to make the 17 hour drive to one of the most gorgeous places we have ever seen. I called Jen's parents the morning we left to fill them in on the happy news, knowing full well they couldn't be trusted with this secret for too long. Next was to find the perfect spot and thanks to Jen's Banff instagram obsession I knew exactly where I wanted to propose. I planned to head to Moraine Lake first thing in the morning to beat the crowds, halfway into our hike along the lakeshore I stopped for a photo op. The first photo was my test shot and I told Jen there were people in the shot and we needed to take another - I told her I thought she'd like this shot way more as I got down on one knee and she burst into tears! We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you. See you in Colorado!
