Madison & Dominic
Photos
We tried to keep it in a chronological order the best we can. Come down memory lane with us as we reminisce the road that led us to this moment in time.
One of our first pictures together! Summer of 2017, Madison spent most of her summer travelling but on one of her free days, Dominic helped her cross the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco.
DC versus Marvel? Who wore it better? Our first Halloween together was one of procrastination and old costumes.
Dominic had no idea what he was in for when he started dating a marching band nerd!
Dominic went to every competition he could to support Madison and her students!
Our first Thanksgiving spent together was spent cooking for Madison's side of the family with chef and sous chef jackets included!
Our first Christmas together. And our first photo together with our pup!
Whether it was blue or pink, it became real that we were going to become parents in this very moment.
A pumpkin in the oven, growing our household by two little feet.
An ongoing joke is that Dominic still sleeps on the couch, so for Halloween it was only fitting to be the Mother Mary and Joseph
Our "babymoon" was a quick trip to Lake Tahoe during Christmas time where we ventured to the top of Squaw Valley!
The nine months of pregnancy was not always picture perfect, but it certainly strengthened our relationship moreso.
And just like that, we were bonded for life through a little miracle.
We became a family before our "I dos" because "I dos" don't define a family, its just the icing on the cake!
We are so incredibly thankful for the engagement pictures Madison's sister-in-law gifted us the day after he got down on one knee in an elf pajama onesie. A huge milestone documented!
Our third pumpkin patch together, Charlotte's first.
As a family, we dressed up as characters from the TV show Stranger Things for Halloween.
The ring!
For all the days along the way
