Tale as old as time, boy signs up for dating site, girl signs up for dating site, they both swipe right, and TA DA!! Next thing you know after chatting a few weeks and making sure neither of them were serial killers - they decided to go to the zoo! Girl decides her little girl would have final say if boy was good enough for them. Among the sights and sounds (and let's face it...smells) of the zoo both girls found boy funny, charming, and very kind. Boy suggests ice cream and since both girls love to eat, he charmed them further. At the end of the day, they were all hooked. And so began the love story between Jenn and Chris and the little girl named Addy, who loves them both!
As our story continues, the zoo date ending in ice cream turned into a blossoming relationship full of laughter and fun. Addy decided that Chris was Daddy and while the little girl fell in love first, Jenn was not far to follow. Surely Chris knew that he was sunk from the beginning. Months of dating came and went and soon, Jenn and Addy moved in with Chris, making their future all but certain. Chris found that he loved his bachelor pad turning into a home and couldn't imagine being without his girls. So, he began house hunting so that they all had lots of space and room to grow. After a short time, Chris found the perfect house and they moved in shortly before Christmas 2020. For Christmas, Chris and Jenn's sister, Michelle, decided to give Jenn a full family photography session. These photos would be complete with all direct members of Jenn and Chris' family. The idea struck Chris like lightning. Chris called Michelle and said "I'm going to propose on family photo day!" and then the two of them began making plans. Chris had his grandmother's ring reset into something he knew Jenn would love. Picture day came and with the whole family gathered and Addy full of smiles, one by one pictures were taken. At the end, Michelle and Chris maneuvered everyone into the very last picture. Jenn, Addy, and Chris in the middle. SNAP! Last photo was complete and Chris kept Jenn distracted while the rest of the family moved out of the frame. It was finally time. Chris got down on one knee and took Jenn's hand. As Chris began the beautiful speech he had laid out, Addy decided she wanted to play. Like any great parent, Chris improvised and ended with "Will you marry me?". Jenn happily accepted, but Chris wasn't finished. As he slipped Jenn's ring on her hand, he then pulled out a ring for Addy also. Thus cementing that he was going to love both, his beautiful fiancée and the daughter she had given him, for as long as they all shall live.
