Our story starts with friendship. We first met during the production of Nutcracker, where we were waltzing partners. We began dating about a year later. There is a wanderlust we both have. It's our desire to see the world that brings us so close. Our first big adventure was a road trip to the Grand Canyon. We spent 5 days (4 nights) hiking from the North Rim to the bottom and back out. Our next journey was moving from Illinois out west to Oregon. While we were nervous to be moving so far from family, there was also excitement in exploring a new place! From Oregon we continued to travel and explore. Discovering trails and waterfalls. Hiking the Redwoods in California. Because of our love for adventure, it is fitting that Casey would propose outdoors. We took a hike on Angels Rest Trail, in the Columbia River Gorge. At the top there is a rocky platform where you can admire the view. It was perfect! The sun was just setting as he gave his speech. There are many more places we would like to see, and so many things we have yet to do - but together will always be our favorite place.
