We met at a rehersal dinner in Canon City, Colorado. Aaron was preparing to officiate the wedding of our dear friends, Matt and Naomi Wittry, who were getting married the next day. We found ourselves lighting off literal fireworks in their driveway later that night. Gabbie was living in Denver and Aaron was in Canon City at the time. We reconnected later that summer when Aaron asked Gabbie to come to the Whitewater festival. We have been hooked ever since!

We purchased our home in Colorado Springs in July of 2019. We live directly across the street from a beautiful city park full of trails. Most days we find ourselves running, hiking or biking the park. Fast forward, it is the day before Gabbie's birthday. Her sister and MOH, Frannie, was in town to celebrate. When Aaron asked to go for a hike before they got ready for dinner, Gabbie did not think anything of it. When they reached the usual destination vista, Aaron got on one knee and asked Gabbie to spend the rest of their lives together... with Frannie there to document, of course! We cannot wait to bring our worlds together to celebrate and RING in a new year!
