Our story starts all the way back in 6th grade when we met in the cafeteria. We've been friends all through middle school and high school. The first time we went on a date was actually to Freshman Year Homecoming. Since then, we always knew we'd make a great pair :) Only took Patrick another 4 years to initiate another date, which was at Sonic to try the jalapeno chocolate shake (disgusting, we know). We decided to make it official the day before we graduated high school and sometimes thinking back, I think we both knew back then that we were each others person. We spent the next 4 years long distance while at college, and when we graduated we moved in together right away :) We've been living in Chicago the last few years while Patrick finishes dental school. Our hobbies include: watching the game show network, spending time with all our best friends, going on walks by the lake, and drinking black and tans at all the Irish pubs. We can't wait for this next chapter in our lives! We'll be getting married, Patrick is finishing school and then going to residency, and we've added two kittens to our lives. We can't wait to celebrate with all our favorite people in the same room!
