Noah and Mini’s story began sophomore year at Michigan State. What started as Economics study sessions quickly turned into Noah cooking dinner for Mini, showing up at her doorstep unannounced and eventually asking her to be his girlfriend. From that moment on, the two were inseparable sharing many fun memories throughout college. After graduation, they packed up and moved to Austin, Texas, where they embraced a new adventure together. Within the first few months they welcomed Huey, their energetic Australian Shepherd who tags along with them almost everywhere. They fell in love with Texas culture (and BBQ!) and grew a lot together meeting new friends and exploring new hobbies. Running became a shared hobby for the two of them. That hobby became the backdrop for one of the most special moments of their journey - Noah proposing at the finish line of the Bayshore Marathon in Traverse City. Over the past seven years, they’ve celebrated milestones, supported each other through challenges, and grown to feel like a part of each other’s friends and families. Now back in Grand Rapids, they’re excited to find their first home and start this next chapter together.
