Andrea & Nick met the usual way, online, and then in real life for afternoon drinks on December 8th, 2018 at Rosebud in Davis Square! It was a lot of fun but Andrea had to get to Leah's birthday party downtown. While in the Uber back home, she texted Nick to see if he was up for some late night pizza and they had their 2nd date the same day! And another date the next day, and then saw each other A LOT. Andrea rarely returned to her apartment. The first month was fun and amazing but also swapping sicknesses, Andrea gave Nick Strep throat and Nick gave Andrea the stomach bug but still were always together. Andrea met Nick's kids, Asher & Jonah and their mom Taryn and they became a bigger modern family. They both love to travel, and in January went to NYC, Tucson to meet his parents and Las Vegas to meet a sister. The next two years consisted of lots of travel, so much fun with all their friends, meeting more family, hosting Holidays and parties, a lot kitchen purchases during Covid, too many Zoom happy hours, Nick officiating a Zoom wedding, driving to Virginia to pick up Andrea's dog Snickers, stressing out about Thalia & Snickers getting along, spending a lot of last summer on in Orleans, getting engaged in Orleans, lots of beach time and sunsets, surviving a pandemic and now planning a wedding (still in a pandemic).
