Through fate, or luck, or maybe both, two friend groups came together on a snowy April Saturday for a blizzard hike & cookout. That day hike deteriorated into snow day shenanigans complete with board games and Nerf gun fights. The next day, Kate texted her cousins to say she had met her future husband. The day after that, Steve called to ask Kate out on a date. The rest (as they say) is history.
