Our love story began before the both of us really even knew it. We met in middle school, although neither one of us can remember the other; we were in the same band class Ryan being a crazy drummer and Marissa a not so talented flutist. We went our separate ways and about 12 years later our paths crossed again and this time is was forever. We had our first date consisting of dinner and a drive on September 23rd 2016 and it was such a great date we couldn’t even wait 12 hours for the second date. On our second date, which just so happened to be Ryan’s birthday, we went off-roading for the first time together and ended up at a shooting range where Ryan was crazy enough to put a gun in the hands of a girl he hardly knew and where Marissa showed off her shooting skills. From that moment on we were inseparable, constantly going on adventures and growing our relationship. Fast forward almost four years to the day and we are on to our next big adventure, and we can’t wait!
