Our crazy story

9.4.2026 | 304 Sycamore Rd, Portsmouth, VA 23707 | RSVP Opening Soon

In 2015, Maddie was just a freshman in Algebra 2 Class— not realizing she was about to meet her future. She and her friend happened to sit by Robert and his friend in the computer lab. Maddie finally asked, “What are y’alls names?” Robert smiled big and said, “Hi, I’m Robert.” Maddie played softball, and Robert played basketball. They became “athletic trainers” just to show up to each other’s games. If she had a game, he was there. If he had a game, she was in the stands. They even went to math tutoring together (which usually turned into passing notes, getting in trouble, and being forced to move instead of solving equations.) When Robert left for college, Maddie’s high school heart thought life was over. But what’s meant to be always finds its way back. In 2020, they moved into their first apartment. Instead of bonding over sports, they bonded over business and down the line.....somehow, accidentally, became local content creators along the way. They added a crazy, sweet pup named Kiko to their little family, and now hope to grow it even more in 2027! Life hasn’t been easy. Health struggles, family losses, seasons that tested everything. But each challenge taught them how to lean on each other instead of pulling away. From passing notes to building a life, a brand, and a family. And they’re just getting started 🤍
