We are filled with joy and love for both each other and the family we are building together.

On top of a Mountain not so far far away, during the ominous 2020 Pandemic, one lone Republican in Asheville NC was fit enough to catch eye of the hometown, toe sock wearing, liberal. Our mutual friend, Mark Zuckerberg, connected us via Facebook dating app, it was love at first swipe! With four kids (Lucian, Sunny, Willow, and Wren) and one overly dramatic dog (Tiger), Gabe swept Mary right off her feet. She and Pancho quickly felt more at home with them than in their one bedroom apartment with a 22'' TV. As their love grew, like Elon Musk's fortune, building their life together just came so easy. Mary was a natural with the kids, daily arts and craft activities, hikes and other adventures quickly bonded them. Gabe, being the social butterfly that he is, quickly overwhelmed Mary's family with hugs, kisses, and random texts. Bonding most with William and Charlie over sports and Sunday golf excursions. As our Day of Unity quickly approaches, we are full of excitement and anticipation for what our future together will bring!
