Everybody claims that their partner is unique, but I believe we are more convinced of that than most. We met online, weary from the challenges of dating apps and almost giving up on finding someone who shares our values when God intervened. Shortly after we started talking, I casually mentioned, "By the way, I'll be at the rollerskating rink tonight," and he responded, "I'll be there" and beat me to the rink. On December 25th, 2023, amidst family and looking like lumpy, Christmas-Vacation-themed potatoes, he proposed, "Will you let me irritate you for the rest of our lives." Since then, things have been a whirlwind, which included not only planning our own wedding, but also a job change, home renovation, numerous vehicle meltdowns, a new puppy, a brother's destination wedding, and attending or participating in five more weddings. But look how well we've managed to stay sane! We are thrilled to embark on this new chapter of our lives and celebrate with our closest friends and family!
