This kind soul is the best partner ever. He packs all the heavy stuff, cooks the yummiest food, builds the neatest things, and is the best dog-dad and husband we could ask for.
Whisky & Echo
This cuddle-bug, bear alarm, and mountain goat duo, Whisky & Echo, are both six-year-old rescues from ARF. They are who push us to get outside and adventure, but also remind us to have slow days and relax by the fire on the acreage.

Oh hey, its me. Planner of all the things, creative director, and editor. I love hanging out with my little fam, and I can’t wait for all our plans to adventure and homestead together.
Our Story
Met
Eloped
Home
Now
We met briefly in 2015 but didn't reconnect again until summer 2016 at a music festival.
We decided to elope in the summer of 2020, in the middle of the global pandemic! We had a secret backpacking elopement with only our parents in attendance. Whisky was our best dog (we hadn't adopted Echo yet!).
We bought a single family home in Cochrane, AB in 2021, but sold and bought our forever (for now!) acreage just north-west of there in 2022 during the crazy housing market.
Eight years later (four married), we have two dogs, a rotation of fosters, a little piece of land, and we are working on fulfilling our homesteading and adventuring dreams together.
