Our Love for Hiking

Adventure called, and we answered together with our amazing friends. Countless mornings began with packed hydration and well-worn hiking boots as we explored nature alongside the people we love most. Our first backpacking trip with friends tested all our limits in the cold mountain air, but the breathtaking memories and shared laughter made every shivering moment worth it.

A Year of Adventures

A year painted with family joy, powder-filled slopes, and festival magic. Precious moments chasing nieces and nephews solidified Brad's reign as the favorite uncle, while the ski season brought its own adventures - MaKinna conquering her fears one slope at a time, and Brad mastering the art of patient encouragement.

The Proposal

The year our dreams aligned with destiny. Against the backdrop of a breathtaking Cabo sunset, Brad dropped to one knee on the warm sand and asked for MaKinna's hand in marriage. The golden orange sky seemed to celebrate as happy tears filled her eyes and she whispered the sweetest 'yes.'
