Neither one of us were looking for love but both of us just happened to be at the right place at the right time. (Special thanks to our dear brother & friend Easton who we think had some sort of hidden agenda) We were both finishing up school to start the careers we had worked so hard for and both decided to go have a little fun in the dirt to blow off some steam. I had every intention on hanging out with my best friend Amanda; dancing, riding, shooting, & froading before we returned back to school yet again for another hell week. Travis had every intention on riding his dirt bike for the day and returning home later that evening, only bringing enough food, water, and supplies for a half day. Despite our simple intentions, we found ourselves gravitating towards each other as the night progressed. I embarrassingly christened Travis with my Angry Orchard after using the bottle opener on his keychain and completely soaked his ONLY sweater. Of course, Travis laughed and didn't let me feel bad or embarrassed for more than a minute. Next thing we know, its 3am and we're the only ones left out by the campfire just talking and looking up at the stars. Yes it sounds cheesy but that is where we learned the the desert is a magical place and to this day, holds a special place close to our hearts. Everything just clicked that night, was so simple & innocent. We both knew that this journey would be something special and different. After a long night of talking and getting to know one another, I learned about Trav's initial intentions and how he brought NOTHING to stay the night and how he had work in just 5 hours. He stayed because he was intrigued by me and I am so grateful that he stayed even though he was hungry, thirsty and froze his butt off sleeping in his jeep with no blankets. xD If that wasn't love and dedication, I don't know what is. Now here we are, almost three years later about to start the rest of our forever and we are just as happy as the night we first met.
