what an amazing opener to the #lcseattle missions trip to the #ladreamcenter. it was a blast pushing my adrenaline levels to new heights today at #KnottsBerryFarm. #snapseed #vscocam #afterlight #iphoneography #losangeles #spring2015 #igdaily #rollercoaster #thriller (at Knott's Berry Farm)

there's something special about taking a step back and observing. it was an honor to assist my love in the media cave. I love seeing you totally submersed into your passions and elements. #nlnextgen #vscocam #afterlight #pnw #media #northwestisbest

"Babe please just smile for one photo." That's not actually what happened, but it made for a witty caption. I love this woman. Life with her is never boring. #womancrushwednesday #wce #vscocam #afterlight

This view, from the Seattle Great Wheel, has a special place in my heart. I first experienced it on October 4th, 2014, my 19th birthday with @aliciag1029. It was as I looked out at this view, and then looked back at her, that I knew this amazing woman just had to be mine. Three months later, on New Year's Day, I asked her to be my girlfriend, and tonight we celebrated our first Valentine's Day together. God has truly blessed me with the most amazing woman on this planet. I love you Alicia. Happy Valentine's Day.. (at The Seattle Great Wheel)

late night set ups and an encouraging word from @judahsmith is definitely one of my new favorite life combos.

MOD pizza. I cannot believe I've been in Seattle since September and have just now tried it. Pizza will never be the same. It was a grand closer to an awesome day with @aliciag1029 and Kyle. #vscocam (at The Mod Pizza Tacoma Mall)
