Both Micah and I grew up in Minnesota a mere hour away from the North Dakota border. We spent lots of time in Bismarck/Mandan as Micah has family there, and in Fargo—it was the “big city” to us back in the day! Despite living so...
Micah and I lived in South Florida for 4 years, and we’ve visited the area more times than we can count. We even had a destination wedding and got married in Palm Beach County, in Delray Beach, FL, to be exact. After moving to Florida,...

Peering over the edge of the window, I looked down at white sand and aqua waters. If I didn’t know better, I’d think we were flying through the Caribbean. In reality, that couldn’t have been much further from the truth. Where were we? We were...
