It's not the prettiest picture, but it's our first one together! Too nervous to ask A on a date, L mentioned going to a "haunted" house and A excitedly agreed, making this their unofficial first date.

The day that we met, we went indoor rock climbing with some friends. Since then, climbing has been one of our favorite ways to connect and have fun together.

A's first spring break in New England and our first photo shoot together!

A got a taste of true New England weather on that first spring break...one day it was snowing, and the next we were at the beach!

Whether hiking, climbing, kayaking, or exploring a new area, adventuring is something we both love. It's one of our favorite ways to connect & we can't wait for the years of adventures to come:)

We can't share our story without mentioning the place that brought us together. This photo is from the student center of ENC's campus. We're forever grateful for this place and all it brought us.

The first time L visited A's family in California, they visited one of the Fitzpatrick's favorite places: the Redwoods! It was a dream come true for L!

L knew she wanted to marry A after they went on a mission trip to Honduras together. After serving alongside A and seeing the depth of his love for Jesus and others, L knew he was the one.

After many hikes up to New Hampshire's peaks, in May 2024, A finally got to take L on some hikes in his neck of the woods!

"The big day! Leandra and I went back to the spot at ENC where we first met three years before. After visiting that spot, we went on a nature walk by the shore where I proposed" -A

"My favorite "yes" I've ever said! I was suspicious because HE suggested that we do a fall photoshoot, but A was so relaxed the whole morning that I was convinced he wasn't going to propose." -L

On the day of our engagement, we were visiting friends. We got to spend the afternoon apple picking and celebrating with them. Since fall is L's favorite season, she loved this!
