We met back in high school working as lifeguards for Framingham Park and Rec! Chris became the head lifeguard at Learned Pond Beach and Katie became his Assistant Head Guard - Scandalous!

Our very first day was in August 2005 at Golf on the Village Green in Natick, MA. After an intensely competitive round of mini-golf we ventured to Friendly’s at the Natick Mall, for dinner and ice cream. Every year since we've made sure to keep the tradition going!

In January 2013, we adopted Athena (or I guess we should say Athena adopted us). Neither of us knows how we lived before having her in our lives. She's a hybrid cross between a Bengal & Toyger, meaning shes got a big cat personality (Bengal) stuck in a lap cats body (Toyger).

After talking about going to the Galapagos for years, we finally bit the bullet and booked the trip for May/June 2016. Since we were traveling all that way out there, we add in hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. After four long days that tested all of our limits (15,000 ft up!), Chris proposed inside the ruins.

After living in Cambridge for 5 years, we finally traded in the city-life for some fresh air and privacy. Though we’re still adapting to having to get into a car to anywhere, it’s been an adventure as we learn more about home improvement, lawn care and re-adapt to early morning bird chirping.
