Our first picture together - overlooking Zion National Park in Utah after John got back from his deployment

John's first photo of Cela on his phone - quick climbing date before he deployed

Our first winter together - slopes closed? No problem - John found a better (make your own) ski hill that we had all to ourselves

Even during the summer in Maine you can find (smirnoff) ice!

Triathlons were something we had in common early on.

Much like John's "shortcuts" to the fishing hole, shortcuts don't work out in a good relationship either :P

Last fall we decided to buy our first (mobile) home together - the Minnie has been on countless adventures already

Good thing "Deployments make the heart grow fonder" - deployment number 2 for us

Cela's latest "Grand" idea - a 24 mile and 10,000 feet "short-cut" (she does it too)

A first and last in one photo - the first time John and Cela flew together on Cela's last Active Duty sortie.

No funny comments here - Cela just needed a picture of the ring ;)

Can't forget a photo of Ryder! The ultimate adventure pup providing us with endless entertainment

Can't wait for our next adventure (hopefully to include you!) in July 2025
