It's 2021 so no surprise that our love story started on Match.com. So cliche but ... I never imagined when I joined Match that I would find a love like this; I think I can say Matthew feels the same way. Long story short, who are we kidding I am a talker so nothing is ever short; we met online, had some long phone calls ( yes Matt actually picks up the phone to talk - shocking I know) and then finally met in person. Matt was working crazy hours at Encore so we had to work things around him. We had dinner at Hagen's in Hampton. ( If you haven't been there they have great food). We talked all night about working out, sports, work and then the boys that are my world. It took some warming up for Matt to get used to the idea of 2 boys being around but when he heard about baseball games, golf matches and all the other things he was sold a little more. The more time we spent together with each other, the boys, our friends & our families, the better things got. Everyone had this feeling that we just fit and had known each other forever. The past 2.5 years have been busy to say the least. Juggling jobs, a short move to NJ, baseball for days, house remodels and a dog. In between all of that we've traveled a bit. We found a great place in Florida, Matlacha that we have gone to twice. Great ocean views, fun little town and lots of cannon balls in the pool. It's become our go to with the boys. Matt surprised me with our night away at the Ashworth by the Sea for my birthday and little did I know ( or maybe i knew a little) that was going to be memorable day. He asked - I said YES - and the rest is about to be come history! We are so glad you are here to share this time with us. We can not wait for champagne toasts, I DO's, dance offs and seeing all your lovely faces. Cheers! Matt & Karen
