We matched, started talking, and a few weeks later decided it was time to meet. The first date? Building patio furniture at Brittany’s place, with dinner as a maybe. Josh showed up with tools ready to go, only to find most of it already put together—very Brittany. She’d also made three dinner reservations, just to keep options open. We landed on Lazy Tiger for dinner, grabbed cocktails at Yellowbelly, and ended the night at UpDown with games and pizza. Thoughtful, fun, slightly overplanned—but easy, and a perfect way to meet. From that first date, we kept saying yes to new things. Brittany was always finding something to try, and Josh was always down. Travel became part of our story—weekends away, new places, good food, and one last cocktail before calling it a night. Years later, we’re still saying yes, still enjoying each other, and ready for the next chapter
