Eddy and Sammie met while working at Costco in Covington, WA. She was living in Kent and he lived in Tacoma with his dog Dexter. When Sammie took a job in Issaquah and they didn't work together anymore, Eddy asked her out. The first date was on January 26, 2014 at The Hub Restaurant and Brewery in Tacoma. They spent hours talking, enjoying each others company and drinking good beer. They continued dating and introduced each other to their friends and family. In June of 2014, Eddy and Sammie moved in together. Since then, they’ve traveled to New Orleans, Long Beach, Las Vegas, Iowa, DC, Hawaii and Australia! They’ve taken long weekend getaways, gone on road trips, camping trips, toured breweries and gone to many concerts. They love to spend time together and look forward to more adventures in the future!

On August 20, 2019, Eddy and Sammie went camping on Harstine Island to see Eddy’s parents. Once they got to the campground and unpacked, his parents had dinner ready. Sammie and his parents were at the picnic table ready to have dinner. "Where's Eddy?" they all asked. Dexter came out of the trailer with a box around his collar. Sammie was confused and looking for Eddy, who came out, got down on one knee and asked her to marry him! The rest of the trip was spent celebrating their engagement!
