We could have just driven up Cadillac Mountain (the tallest peak in Acadia National Park, Maine), but what's the fun in that?! We hiked over ten miles up and down and all around this day!

Us relaxing after all the post-engagement excitement... it clearly put a BIG smile on my face! ;)

Us trying to explain to Dee Dee that mommy and daddy are getting married! She thought we already were...

Soaking in the Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park

Backcountry camping together in Grand Teton National Park at Leigh Lake.

Hiking through the Tetons!

Us and the new Buchalskis (Mike and Lydia) enjoying to coolest experience of our lives with the total eclipse in Grand Teton National Park!

Enjoying the beautiful colored pools around Yellowstone National Park - this one is called Morning Glory.

Fun Fact - Marne had a hitchhiking chipmunk in her backpack here and had no idea until we got back to our campsite after this 14+ mile hike and found him rapped up in her emergency blanket!

Enjoying an evening boat ride to Emerald Point with Family and Friends!

Our little family hiking up one of the 46 Adirondack Peaks - Cascade Mountain during an impromptu camping trip. Dane and Marne try to escape upstate for hiking and camping whenever possible!

Dane and Marne on their first overseas trip together to Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain. This is called Masca - an ancient town preserved in the beautiful mountains on the island.

Don't let Dane's face fool you, he was psyched about looking out at the highest mountain in Spain - Mt. Tiede, an inactive volcano that inspired Europe's #1 visited National Park!

A little snow can't keep us indoors! We love winter hikes... Dee Dee does too as long as we remember her boots and coat ;)

Dane as Jim Bowie and Marne as David Bowie (Starman). It may not be a common couples costume, but we think we made it work!

Marne and Dane at Gunsight Ridge in Glacier National Park on their first solo vacation together.

Dane and Marne at Grinnel Glacier in Glacier National Park, Montana.

How can you not take a selfie with a glacier?!

Dane showed Marne that one of the best beaches in the country is in Indiana, right down the road from where his Grandma Suzie lives!

When we're not out in the woods, we clean up pretty well!

November 1st, 2015, we packed up a UHaul full of Marne's families old furniture in Florida and brought it up to Greenwood Lake, where we got our first house together!

We'll always be lake rats at heart!

After a long hike, getting a little off the trail and stung by several wasps, a dip in this cold mountain stream was just the ticket!

In one of our favorite close destinations - The Shawangunk Mountains (Usually just known as The Gunks). Don't worry, Marne isn't really that tall, she's just standing on a rock above Dane!

Of course, graduation is always an exciting time, but we were extra ecstatic because we finally wouldn't be in a long distance relationship anymore!

You can barely see Dane, but here we are at Marne's parent's beautiful dock on the Intercostal Waterway during Dane's last long distance visit to her while in college in St. Augustine, FL!

Our first wedding together - Dane's Cousin Jenny and Rodger Stevens

We had to include a couple embarrassing pictures, right? Here we are packing up our things at Marne's family home in West Milford before her family moves to St. Augustine Florida.

Climbing trees to watch the Greenwood Lake Airport Airshow because we were too broke and cheap to buy tickets!

Dane's first visit to see Marne while in college in St. Augustine... very sweet, right?

Fort Matansas in St. Augustine, FL.

Our first Christmas together!

Our first Devils game together!
