Andrew somehow conned me into coming over to his house for our first date. I was a senior in college at the time, chronically exhausted from schoolwork, work, and trying to maintain some sort of social life. He promised me puppy cuddles with Avery, who, in his photos online appeared to me around a 5-8 month old puppy. Well- I got to his house, and Avery was a full blown 2 year old dog, NOT a puppy, even though she still won me over (and I guess Andrew did too). The rest is history – and we’re FINALLY doing the dang thing!
