The time Amanda went to the Stanford team banquet and got two dozen roses from John's athletes… not planned by John.

Becky (Amanda's sister) designed the original Save-The-Date card! Her stellar design will be revived for the program. She's so talented <3

In an alternate universe, John and Amanda live in the Pacific Northwest, have a small family and a husky. In reality, they enjoyed taking a walk with Mary, Josh, and their family.

John bought Amanda a giant panda to rest on after a surgery. Then while she was at work, he sent her this photo.

Zip-lining in the CA redwoods! Flying by the seat of our pants, as usual...

Amanda pointing to John as if to say, "This is the guy I'm eventually going to marry."

One of their many moments when Amanda downplays what she does, John then brags about Amanda, then they look at each other.

Two lies and a truth: Amanda is into karaoke and finally got John to sing in a small bar in Arizona. She led a group sing-a-long of "Don't Stop Believin". That's when John knew she was the one.

Amanda and John met the old fashioned way... at a bar - named Slippery Slope. Here are photos of Amanda and her kickball friends from that night.

John and his friends the night he and Amanda met. Luckily, John's friends vouched for him because his dance moves weren’t doing him any favors.

John’s dream is to travel the country in a van. Amanda wants to shower every day. For 5 days in southern Colorado those two opposing desires were put to the test.

One of the first postcards John sent Amanda. He still sends her postcards.

Amanda's eyes are dilated in this photo. Ask John why.

Two pre- and one post-engagement photo. Amanda didn't see it coming.

When only one of us participates in the selfie.

Obligatory Grand Canyon photograph taken by a stranger.

Maybe it's a high ankle sprain he said. Then he brought her ice packs for weeks and made her laugh by racing around on and occasionally falling off her knee scooter.

John whispering into Amanda's ear, "Amanda let's have a small wedding with 5 guests in 2020 then a big party in 2021... scratch that... let’s go 2022.” Amanda was cool with it.

One person is very excited about a potential van adventure. The other not so much. Can you guess who?

COVID has tested how much time they want to spend in a small apartment together but a week in a campervan was the ultimate final. Don't worry the wedding is still on.

July 2021 - Campervan tried and true. Waterfalls to boot.

The Oliver brothers!
