Due to family obligations, COVID restrictions, and a million other factors, we sped up the timeline considerably. In order to do that, we're keeping it very small (Kevin likes to use the word "exclusive"), which means if you're reading this - you're very special!
Kevin and Jess virtually met on a dating app called Coffee Meets Bagel in April of 2018. After chatting for a few days, we met up for coffee and a walk in the park, and from there, the rest is history. We made it Facebook official just a month later. Since then we've had many adventures together: hiking and kayaking, traveling, joining a local church, and buying a house to name a few. We're both overjoyed that we get to continue adventuring together for the rest of our lives!
Kevin thought he was being sneaky, but Jess knew it was coming. In June we traveled to Acadia National Park in Maine. On our third day, we hitched a ride on a small USPS boat to the nearly deserted Great Cranberry Island and hiked out to a pebble beach. We sat down on an outcropping of rocks above the water and marveled that there wasn't another human in sight. Kevin had been collecting rocks in his fanny pack and started pulling them out one by one. Finally, there was one last very shiny rock in a ring box, which he opened upside down as he proposed. We were both giggling hysterically through the whole thing. It was perfect.
