now we know what you're all going to say.

It's been a long time coming..

It's about damn time..

took so long your clothes went out of style..

And just when Nick thought he had the perfect moment to propose after swimming with turtles in Hawaii (Laura's only contribution to ideas for the trip) half the boat got sea sick; not the most romantic setting. In the end it all worked out in a spur of the moment proposal with the back drop of a beautiful sunset on the pier on our last night in Waikiki.

Nick and Laura met Spring of 2012 and it may be a surprise to some but we didn't quite get along first try; but after a few false starts Nick had to admit that Laura was the best thing that ever happened to him (lol) and we officially started dating in 2013. Over the past 11 years we've truly been through it all and even when the times were hard and we wanted to kill each other we knew we were always better when we were together.

After working together, living together, welcoming family, and losing some before their time, we've truly been through it all together and want to thank every single person who helped us get to where we are along the way.

so here's cheers to us and to all of you for being a part of our journey.
