We met during our Sophomore year at Washington State University. Our mutual friend, Spencer, set us up to go on a fraternity "date dash" together. Not too long after, Brandon asked Maddy out on their first official date to one of their favorite restaurants in Pullman. The rest is history!

We recently bought a house in Lake Stevens, WA! We have been loving exploring our new home and getting acquainted with the new neighborhood. We live with our fur baby, Moose- the goofiest, most energetic golden retriever you will ever meet. Brandon is a sales representative for a company called Aptive. Maddy teaches 2nd grade in the Mukilteo School District. Together we like to travel, cook at home together, try new local restaurants around our house, and find new adventures we can go on with Moose!

For Valentine's Day, Brandon surprised Maddy with a trip to Leavenworth to stay at The Post Hotel. Prior to checking in, Brandon asked Maddy if she wanted to walk along the river that goes right through town. The sun was shining, and it was the most picturesque winter wonderland. Stopping to take a picture, Brandon surprised Maddy, dropped down on one knee, and proposed! We are so excited to celebrate this time in our lives with you.
