My favorite memory with Megan and Ewald is every time they make me lasagna! It usually means they want something unless it's for my birthday.

My favorite memory of Megan and Ewald was from Ewald's first desert trip with us. After explaining how the quads operated, Ewald said he knew how to ride motorcycles and then returned to camp 5 minutes later with tire marks across his chest.

I’ll never forget our amazing trip to Puerto Vallarta with Ewald and Megan. We had such a blast exploring the vibrant town, from strolling along the beautiful beach to enjoying the lively local markets. One of my favorite memories was the boat fishing trip we took, where we all laughed as we tried to catch the big fish! The nights were just as unforgettable, with live music, dancing, and a lot of laughter. The whole trip felt so relaxed and fun, and I’m so grateful to have shared those moments with you guys!

I remember our trip to Zion and that hike up Angel’s Landing with Ewald and Megan. That was quite a day! The trail was tough - the endless switchbacks, steep climbs, and those narrow spots where the path was barely wide enough for our feet. Definitely not a walk in the park! We didn’t make it up to the chain section since it was crazy busy, but honestly, even getting as far as we did was an adventure in itself. When we made it to Scout Lookout, the view from there was absolutely worth all the effort. The canyon below us looked like a picture, and the feeling of making it that far was amazing. You guys really made that tough climb feel more like an adventure than a challenge.

My favorite memory of Megan & me is our movie marathons over the summers growing up and having ice cream for breakfast! Shhh don't tell Mom.

My favorite memory with Megan was going to the pumpkin patch and following it up with Fish Bowl Margs and singing all the way home!

My favorite memory with Ewald was when I was in like 6th or 7th grade, Ewald went on a trip to Tahoe with one of his friends from school. When he got home, he brought me a gallon ziplock filled with snow and we had a small snowball fight in the backyard of the home in NorCal.

My favorite memory was when Ewald detoured to visit me on his drive back to San Diego and we took his POS BMW up to the snow. Most of the snow on the streets was plowed, but the turnouts had a fresh layer of snow, perfect for drifting. We drifted until we ran out of gas, drove down the mountain to refuel and grab a midnight pizza, then drove back up and kept drifting until the car blew a coolant hose.

My favorite memory with Ewald was when he visited me in DC on the 4th of July. We got drunk by the Washington Memorial while watching the fireworks then somehow walked back to my apartment. We then continued drunkenly watching illegal fireworks across the city from the roof.

There was one day when we were in college and he had just bought a VR system. He hooked it up to his computer and we started playing it. One of the games we were playing was a little too realistic for him, some climbing game that I don’t remember the name of, and it needed him to “jump up”. So he jumped and banged his hands on the ceiling and made a small hole.
