Most love stories start with “boy meets girl.” Ours starts with a couch. Long before we officially met, Keenan spent countless nights on the very couch in Jessica’s childhood home, crashing there before skateboarding events with his best friend (who just so happened to be dating Jessica’s sister). Meanwhile, Jessica was somewhere in that same house, blissfully unaware, probably waiting for the next episode of Buffy or Charmed. Right person, very wrong time. Fast-forward to December 18th, 2016: an ugly Christmas sweater party, where the universe finally decided to give timing another shot. We met, we laughed, and through mutual friends, a friendship formed… but life still had a few detours planned. We became roommates. (Yes… they were roooomates.) For over two years, we lived under the same roof, slowly weaving our lives together without fully realizing it. After moving separate ways for a bit, we reconnected, this time with timing finally on our side. Dinner dates, movie nights, out-of-town concerts, and spontaneous adventures… we fell in love in the most natural, slow-burn, “oh, this is my person” kind of way. Since making it official in 2021, we’ve been busy living the life we always dreamed of. We've been traveling for music and adventure, growing our fur family from one to three (Indie Anna Jones Smith, Eevee Smith, and Millie May), working on ourselves, laughing constantly, drinking cocktails and bourbon, and building a future that feels like home. Speaking of the future… on November 23rd, 2024, Keenan got down on one knee on Pebble Beach in Seattle, the place we fell in love, and asked Jessica to be his wife. She said yes to forever, and yes to a lifetime of adventure, quirks, and shared couches (just not the childhood one). So here we are. Two people who crossed paths long before they ever knew it. Two people who found each other again and again until the timing finally fit. Two people creating a beautiful, silly, adventure-packed love story, one that we can’t wait to continue as husband and wife.
