Like most people our age, we met on a dating app! We met on Hinge first, then Bumble…Long story short, we made it to our first date at the Happiest Hour in Dallas. We were both very nervous and late (lol DFW rush hour)! Alex thought Rebekah was going to cancel because she kept mentioning a gas leak at her apartment; he was a skeptic. Little did he know it was true, and Rebekah had to run to the mall to buy make up to touch up before the date! We sat down at the table, but we were still so nervous! We ended up sharing a mac & cheese entree. We even had some left over! It’s laughable now because we are both such big eaters and order three entrees to share. We chatted and laughed for six hours; time flew by! After the first date, we just kept dating! We dated during COVID, adopted Stella, met friends and family, traveled to many places, and consumed so much food. It has and continues to be a beautiful life we have built together!
