We tell people we met the "Old Fashioned Way", in person, at a house party. In 2012, at a place known lovingly as the Party Mansion, Thomas and Katie met. Thanks in large part to our good friend Anthony we ended up at the same Halloween Party where Thomas dressed as Bob Ross and Katie dressed as Bert from Sesame Street. After a few more get-togethers and a couple of fire-pits we got to know one another and set up an official first date just after New Years.
