Met each other at church in Bozeman the end of July!! Started hanging out with a group of kids from church and luckily we happened to be in the same friend group!! The night before this picture, we hung out for the first time ALONE.

Max and I both moved away from Bozeman the beginning of September. He went up to Scobey to prepare for his mission and I went down to Rexburg to start college. This picture was taken the first time Max came to see me in Rexburg.

I was really missing Max this week and then SURPRISE! He came to see me in Rexburg!

Max came to Bozeman and met the Blanchard family for the first time! (entire family not shown lol)

Max made another trip down to Rexburg! Just to put it in perspective, the drive from Scobey to Rexburg is 10hrs ONE WAY. Max made this drive at least 6 times. We tried to see each other every weekend before Max left on his mission.

Me and a roommate made the trip up to Scobey!! Met the Cole family for the first time!!

Pumpkin carving together in Rexburg! This night we talked for the first time about a possible future together after the mission.

Went to the Ice Caves in Rexburg with the Blanchard Fam. Last adventure together for 2 years!
