The best adventure Saturday yet
On a cold and dark December morning three days after Matt arrived in NYC, he stumbled into Rachael's F45 class in Williamsburg Brooklyn. A series of days, burpees and Matt's best attempts to seem cool later, Rachael surprisingly agreed to meet for coffee to discuss a job opportunity. That coffee meeting about a job turned into an evening date about life - and here the adventure began. Trying to keep Rachael on her toes and Matt from getting lost in the New York subway system, we made our Saturdays: "Adventure Saturday". These adventures took us all over the boroughs to new parks, pizza, museums, and friends. Those friends took us all over the world for birthdays, stag parties, and weddings. We now have the honor to invite you, along with all the people we love most, into our favorite tradition and to our biggest adventure Saturday yet. We hope you'll join us and help us continue this great adventure. With love, Rach & Matt
