How It All Started

January 2017

I stumbled upon this beautiful blonde with cool shoes and matching beanies-- that was it. I was absolutely intrigued. We started to build our relationship over the next 6 weeks-- from nonstop on facetime calls to goodnight texts followed by good morning calls only a few hours later. We were able to use this time to connect and grow on a more emotional level, but more importantly to make sure she wasn't a serial killer. Our first date, picture it, an Indiana girl drives to a big city to meet possibly the person of her dreams and she is quickly faced with the reality of parallel parking. Alex came to the rescue, of course, but before she parked my car she hugged me in the middle of Farragut street for the first time. In that moment, I knew. This is my person. The last three years have been filled with a love that I know people have tried to write songs about or try to express in movies, but I am not sure there's a way to truly understand unconditional love until you experience it yourself. Even through life's ups and downs, the same always remains, she is my safe place and I am hers. There are no amount of dark days stronger than the foundation of our love. As Alex and I raise... (insert Tay and H). Welcome to the celebration of our very unconventional but truly unconditional love story.
