Your wedding was beautiful in its simplicity and deeply meaningful. The traditional Cathlotic elements made it feel intimate. Your reception was the hottest spot in Houston that night. I wish you guys so much strength, love, and patience for this next chapter of your lives! #linkinbio

I definitely was nervous for how uncomfortable and painful it would be - that's how it is with most things you try for the first time. Jiu-jitsu is definitely on the list of things to pick up in the near future :) #linkinbio

This is just a small snapshot of who I am thankful to and for. There's many other people not in this picture who have made me a better person. Thank you for letting me share this absolutely crazy life with you! Thank you to those who reached out to wish me a Happy Birthday. I'm absolutely terrified of what's to come in this next decade. Cheers!
