In 2022 our best friends were getting married. They held a joint bachelorette party in Mystic, Connecticut where Kevin and I met. From the jump, sparks were flying. Our energy’s collided immediately. He brought out a spark in me that was missing. He was a caretaker to all the ladies, was respectful, and looked after us all. We had our first date a couple weeks after meeting and the rest is history from there. We go back to Mystic as frequent as we can to retrace our original tracks together.

This is hard. We would choose our first trip back to Mystic for our first year dating anniversary. Kevin started it off with surprising me with matching forever bracelets! From there we went to the winery the girls went to, the brewery the boys went to - we went and ate at the restaurant we all joined up at. We went boating, and we stopped back at the Airbnb to take photos and soak up the memories. It was surreal. Mystic is a beautiful city and the start of where our chapter book began together!

Kevin and I are saving for our first home together and also planning our wedding. Kevin recently got his real estate license and is doing that part time while also managing a full time business alongside his Dad. Our goal is to work hard now in our youth to then be able to provide for our future children. This money would be the crutch towards that first step to chasing our dreams together!
