We met on CatholicMatch this past summer! Our first date was a hike on what was probably the most humid day of the summer in Missouri. And we got engaged five months later after a very short hike on the coldest day of winter in Iowa! We both thank God every day for blessing us with the gift of what we've been longing for: a partner to share life with. It's amazing how well-suited we are for each other, and we both feel extremely lucky to have found one another. We can't wait to spend our lives together traveling, hiking, reading, appreciating the art & beauty in this world, playing organ & singing, eating chocolate, supporting one another, and God-willing, raising a family. Thank you for the love and support each of you have shared throughout our individual journeys, which brought us to this incredible new chapter of our lives.
