We met in good ol' West by God Virginia, where we both worked as social workers for a foster care and adoption agency. After Jake moved on to a new job, Brittany inherited his scarlet and gray, OSU themed office. Love at first "email" started when Brittany needed the voicemail code for Jake's old office phone, and he quickly realized they both had Ohio area codes. Fast forward to Brittany sending a simultaneous friend request and text message- we were on the countdown to our first date. Cue Fat Patty's bar seats with Crown Royal on the rocks and a Jack and Coke. We talked for three hours straight, and dinner seemed to happen naturally. After leaving Fat Patty's, there was no handshake or hug -we took it straight to a "high-five." How romantic.

That high-five stuck. It wasn't long before we spent every day finding new adventures in wild and wonderful West Virginia. Picnics with the pups in Ritter Park, running the park trails, Dave Matthews concerts, pumpkin festivals, visits back home to Ohio and epic OSU tailgating. Eventually, it was time to move closer to the family and friends that we hold dear so we packed our home in the West Virginia mountains, loaded up Woody, Sammie and Zorro, and headed to Columbus, OH.

We still spend our days as social workers, doing what we can for our clients and communities, a passion that has been such an joy to share with one another. We love visiting the family cottage on Lake Erie, taking mini vacations with family and friends, camping and most of all... BREWDOG.

We are so thankful for the family and friends who have relentlessly supported us throughout our journey. You have shared your love with us and we are incredibly grateful to share ours with you :)
