Met 7/3/04 @ a friend’s lake house in N MI, young summer love began. Life took us different ways: he moved to MT, she traveled the US. We stayed friends. Fast forward to Covid; both back in MI after family losses. Took a chance on a spontaneous road trip, full of laughs, adventure & rediscovery. We've been together since. 21 yrs later, 5 back together love feels like it's just starting & forever. Our hometown & home today both sit on the 45th parallel, yet our love spans far beyond any line.

We decided that our top favorite memories are both of our first dates, although we have created so many truly amazing experiences! Our very first date is our favorite. It was technically our 3rd time hanging out, but 1st official date, and we went out of town to watch the Buick Open, which John Daly Won, and we shared our first kiss! It was all great...once we got there. We got a flat tire a half hour down the expressway, both moms had to be part of us getting a ride each way for the new tire!

Celebrate our love w/ 5k towards MT Wedding, 5K for MI Wedding, 5k for traveling, a honeymoon, rings, & pampering like couples massages, & 5k for the homestead to continue building our orchard, perennial plants, fruits, and flowers for the birds, bees, enviorment and to grow healthy produce to share with having a portion going to our garden becoming certified to share to our local food bank which Jen volunteers at. Not engaged, yet, if we win, having the finances out of the way makes life BLISS!
