Chris and I met while I was working at EquipmentShare. He was a vendor for the company, and every time he stopped by, he somehow found his way to the shop window. Not long after, animals from his farm started showing up in our office — goats, chickens, cats — which should’ve been my first clue that life with him would never be boring. One day, Kristin McCormick and Angelina Gulli suggested I should go out with Chris (shoutout to Kristin & Angelina for changing our lives). After talking for a bit, I finally decided to text him — and that one text changed everything. Our first date was anything but ordinary. We went fishing (he caught turtles, I caught fish), roasted marshmallows outside a graveyard, and then trespassed at a community pool. Since then, I gained the most amazing bonus child, Levi, and together we welcomed our sweet Wyatt. Our lives have grown in the best and wildest ways, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
