A baby shower, thank you McKenna, brought Amanda to Tampa Bay in 2021 and the location filters on a dating app did the rest. We got to know each other through texts and zoom before we got to meet in person for the first time. We kept prioritizing each other and we made time for dates in our respective cities, Orlando and St. Pete, before mutually deciding that the other person was our person. Since then we've traveled, moved into our first home together, dealt with hardships and grief, parented some sweet kitties, got engaged, picked up new hobbies (so much coffee), scream sang at too many concerts, and chose each other over and over.
