Cody's Version: Having worked together, Brit and Cody definitely “met” “in-passing” a few times, but the first time that really sticks out to him was at Gameworks. If you know anything about Cody, he is amazing at pop-a-shot, so of course that’s what he was doing most of the night. After posting numerous 100+ point games, he sat down with his beer at a table. Across from him at that table was Brit and much like Cody does, he didn’t really talk initially, he just listened and he was intrigued. Cody and Brit chatted for a bit and had some more drinks. After that night, there were a several happy hours (Horse & Barrel will live on), conversations, and drinks to be had before there was an actual Brit & Cody. Brit's Version: Cody and Brit met at work. They both began working at the same firm in 2016, but were located in two different Cincinnati offices so their interactions were few and far between. Their journey truly began when the two offices merged to become one in 2018. Brit had a long time crush on Cody and invited him to numerous happy hours she organized for their departments. One outing in particular stood out. After a happy hour in January 2019, everyone decided to take the party to Walt's Hitching Post for dinner. Brit convinced Cody to attend and he even drove her to the event. When Brit walked into Walt's, she was about to sit down when she heard Cody yell from across the table, "You're not even going to sit by me?!" Cody and Brit sat next to each other at dinner and spent the entire time talking and making each other laugh. They started dating about a month after.

Cody's Version: It was a beautiful spring Saturday, May, 7, 2022. Cody did his first 90 minute Power Zone Endurance ride that morning and he was not prepared for the aftermath of 31+ miles on the Peloton. He had promised Brit a dinner at Cooper’s Hawk earlier in the week, which he had strategically done as he knew Brit was getting her nails done that week. This was all part of the plan, as was playing off how exhausted he was, so there would be no way of knowing what was coming. As she got ready to go to dinner, Cody dressed Flapjack and Hooper in matching dog bandanas that said, “Mommy, will you marry Daddy?”. Even if Brit wanted to say no, she couldn’t have. Cody heard Brit coming down the stairs, so he let the boys out and as she was near the fireplace they attacked her sporting some sweet bandanas as Cody dropped to one knee and asked Brit to marry him. Brit's Version: Cody and Brit had planned their monthly dinner date night at Cooper's Hawk. While getting ready, Brit noticed her side kick, Flapjack (Cody and Brit's oldest fur baby) was not right beside her. A little odd, but she thought maybe Cody was having a snack and Flapjack was trying to see if he could get lucky with some scraps. Brit finished getting ready and was heading downstairs. When she hit the bottom of the staircase, Flapjack and Hooper (their two fur babies) were running at her and Cody was right behind them. Cody said "The boys have a question for you?" Brit looked down and noticed the new bandanas Flapjack and Hooper were wearing that read "Mommy will you marry Daddy?" She obviously said yes <3
