Our story

A breakdown of the Batchelor-Bretón baecation in Vietnam: bánh mì, burns, beaches, bites, boats, bikes, báhn bao, breakfast, birthday, bún bò Huê, bread

Italia: lots of pizza, wine, and pasta

A retro-covid safe date night at the drive-in movies

One of our famous 9 pm to 3 am RA desk shifts because choosing the same weekend shifts seemed like a good idea at the time

A quick road trip to OKC, also known as a reason to put on jeans after 9 months in sweats

Rachael's first time in DR and Ray showing her everything his country has to offer

Pure excitement getting the keys to our first home! #adulting

Rachael's 21st birthday, filled with tears (from her losing her wallet the night before) and Ray gifting her a promise ring & the promise to upgrade it (which he followed through on March 27, 2020!!!)

Our engagement photo sesh to officially announce he put a ring on it

The first trip we took together to Niagara Falls (the Canadian side of course) when Ray asked Rachael to be his girlfriend *swoon*

Our most recent roadtrip to the weird city of Austin! This mural was too perfect, too cute, too cheesy

When we asked this llama, "¿Como te llama?" he hummed back at us "Barack Ollama!"

A little Bean with her big Bean and the Bean

The first night alone in our new home when Ray proposed to Rachael

Our second trip together to Isla Mujeres, where the water was warm and the sand so soft

Family photo with our first (but not last, he's getting a sister) adopted kitty boy, Milo

More RA adventures, as you can see from this photo Ray is very ecstatic to be here and to be running the ResHall event, clearly, Rachael's enthusiasm is no match for his!

Graduating together, Rachael is still obsessed with these photos - they're her phone and laptop background

Their first date, to the famous Syracuse county fair. Ray refuses to admit it, but Rachael knows this is his favorite photo of them

The beginning of their DIY journey...see if you can spot this sign the day of the wedding (;

A quick "Getaway" to the middle of the woods

We're full-fledged Dallas Mavericks fans, so I don't even know why we went to a NY Yankees game
