Back when Kara and Alex were in their early 20's, they were introduced through mutual friends. Fast forward several years and two adopted puppies later, while living with her Aunt in Chestnut Hill, Kara received a text message from Alex, who at the time was coincidentally living just a few minutes away in Brookline. "Hey, heard you got a puppy we should get our dogs together sometime." Kara knew Alex wanted more than to just get the "dogs together". From Brookline to Westwood and now homeowners and co-dog parents in Billerica, these two were destined to find a way together.
Early on the morning of Saturday, May 15th, 2021, Alex and Kara decided to take Austin and Dreidel for one of their usual weekend hikes. Alex was nervous, and Kara just rolled out of bed. They hiked to the top peak, one of the usual spots they would to stop and enjoy the view. With a hawk circling overhead, they kept an eye on the dogs and Alex got down on one knee, "this is happening he said", "will you marry me?". Here we are now planning our wedding and hoping you will join us on this special day.
