After meeting through mutual friends, a few other encounters, and conversations with friends; we finally ended up going out to Northgate together for the 4th of July. Michael wanted to leave to avoid being towed with only 30 minutes left until the bars closed. Bri ended up leaving the bar, walking all the way over to pay Michael's parking meter, and saying "What's your excuse now?" Michael, coming from a long line of oblivious men, got the hint and realized this wasn't just a kind gesture, this was a "HELLO!" We will have been together a little over 6 years once our magical day comes, "A good trial run" Michael claims. We have three beautiful fur babies. Charlie, Riley, and Tig complete us as a family. Together we have traveled to Time's Square in NYC for New Years, to sipping margaritas on the beaches in Mexico, to hiking Mount Rainer in Seattle, and exploring the White Sands of New Mexico. We have seen each other be successful and we have been there through each other's struggles, and there is no one else who we were meant to share our worlds with than each other. We can't wait to see you all on the dance floor!
