We met as teenagers — two kids who had no idea what was ahead of us. Lucas was best friends with my brother, so he was always around, and somewhere between all the visits and laughter, something just clicked. Our first date was at Urban Swirl, and only two days later, we both knew it was love. From that moment on, we’ve been inseparable. We grew up together, graduated high school and college side by side, built a home, adopted two cats, and shared every season of life hand in hand. What started as a simple crush blossomed into a love story that has truly stood the test of time.
