Though we come from different coasts and have opposite personalities, Jackson with his love for structure, me with less structure... we have found the balance each other needs! What began as a random and funny first encounter, turned into something more a year later. I baked a homemade peach cobbler, not knowing his sweet tooth yet, Jackson brought a bottle of gin, not knowing it's my favorite, and this sparked a new beginning. A baseball game, a terribly long bike ride in Vermont, and a car accident later, and here we are! We are rooted in our shared love for Jehovah and privileged to be surrounded by the support of loving family, and friends like you who we consider extended family. We are so excited to share this next step with you!

Everything Lizette said is true. I echo her sentiments and am grateful for more than I can express. We are thankful that good friends and our pursuit of spiritual goals brought us together. Her joyful personality, the warm welcome from her family, and the support of good friends mean the world to me. Each day I appreciate Lizette more, and I look forward to starting our future together. We are so excited to celebrate with you in December!
