Living in the same places in California for years, we didn’t cross paths until we had both moved to Oregon in 2009. Christian in Portland and Erika in McMinnville. Neither of us expecting to meet the love of our lives at a random event in Forest Grove in September of 2010. Many months of commuting later, our eventual decision to live together brought us out Astoria in June 2011. Here in this hip, quaint little river town we have grown our lives together in for past 5 years.  Our hours, days, months, and travels together seem to have Flown by, and are a testament to our enduring compatibility. We are truly Best Friends and find there is absolutely no other we would rather “grow” old with ;) We are the same in a lot of ways, but different enough to learn from and challenge each other every day.  We hope this natural transition will not change anything, but just keep us strong in our union and passion for life. Our commitment and support for each other will always take priority as we take our adventures to new and exciting heights J
