Just friends :)

After bonding over many games of Spikeball, I asked Claire to join me on a walk to Walmart...to buy a plant. Soon, we spent hours talking at our favorite coffee shop, the Muse, then went on our first date to Tacos Locos and Percival's Island.

From mountains near Lynchburg to urban peaks in Phoenix, we have loved exploring the great outdoors.

Over Thanksgiving break, our families met for the first time to pack shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child.

No trip to Somerset County was complete without a stop (or two) at Café Dodie!

I accepted a summer internship in DC - conveniently, not far from Claire's hometown. We spent the summer together exploring monuments, museums, and food spots.

We spent several years campaigning and leading in Liberty's student government. SGA taught so many lessons and provided even more dear friends!

Any given Saturday, you could find us playing sports with friends, grabbing a pizza at our favorite local shop, or supporting our football team.

She said YES!

The year since our engagement has been anything but quiet. We graduated from college, celebrated the weddings of our best friends, and started to plan our own wedding and life together! :)
