We're getting married!

John and Kristina first met when she started her full time job at PetSmart in 2014. John had just moved to a different team which opened up a position for Kristina. Fast forward a year later when they find themselves working on the same team! To this day, John still laughs about how Kristina always managed to one up him on meeting deadlines. In March of 2016, Kristina started scheming with a friend at work to get John to notice her. It consisted of spur of the moment get togethers and pleas to help Kristina move apartments using John's truck. They finally had their first official date in June of 2016 where Kristina got to meet Jinx for the first time!

John and Kristina decided to take Jinx up to Sedona for a hike the weekend before they left for a trip to Maui. They decided to go to West Fork Trail which is a beautiful hike through a national forest following a stream in Oak Creek. Half way through the hike, Kristina started noticing that John was tripping over rocks, which was totally out of the norm. He eventually found a nice boulder off the trail along the creek to rest and take a break. While sitting on the boulder and enjoying the day, John turned to Kristina and asked her to marry him.
