What started off as several different dog walking missed connections throughout the city of Cleveland, has developed into Ayden and Lex's love story. Ayden and Lex "met" a few times before actually meeting. During the first missed connection, Lex was playing a game of cat and mouse with Ayden, as you see, Lola, her fun loving, energetic, overly friendly Aussiedoodle, was going through some health issues and needed to stay away from other dogs. While Ayden attempted to gain her attention, she high tailed it in the opposite direction for her and Lola's sake. During a second missed connection, Lex was walking home from work when she saw Ayden and LeBron walking by so she ran up to say, "hi" and give LeBron a good pet. Too soon they arrived at Lex's apartment and parted ways. After a few more missed connections, Ayden has LeBron James Canavos to thank for our first meeting in a separate almost missed connection. While Lex and Lola were walking by, LeBron pulled with all his 25 pound might to meet his future momma and sister, Lola. There were a few more missed connections that ultimately ended with Lex giving her number to Ayden to start going on dog walks together. The rest is... history!

Ayden and Lex's first date was at a pizza parlor named "Il Rione" on Tuesday, July 12th, 2022. Every Tuesday since that first date, Ayden and Lex have had a standing pizza date. Whether it be from the comfort of their couch as they binge watch another one of their favorite TV shows (GoT, anyone?) or hopping from pizza parlor to pizza parlor, this tradition has stood the test of time and will continue until the end of time.

Ayden and Lex's first date was Tuesday, July 12th, 2022. Ayden proposed to Lex at one of their favorite summertime spots, Geneva-On-The-Lake, on July 12th, 2024, and now they will make a vow to each other to make their love permanent and forever in front of all their family and friends on July 12th, 2025. We thank you for being a part of our pattern.
