It all started in 2017 with mutual friends posting pictures of a night out with Nikki on their snapchat. Chris responded to one of their posts of Nikki happy dancing with the fridge with, "Who is that? Put me on." To which the twins replied, "put yourself on". LOL

After careful consultation, they gave Chris Nikki's number, and he called. Yes, not a text, straight up called. A few weeks in, Chris asked Nikki out on a first date. With him living in DC and Atlanta, and Nikki living in Chicago, this meant someone would need to travel. Chris flew in to Chicago for one night to take Nikki to a Bruno Mars concert! (Best 1st date ever!)

Fast Forward to 2020. Mid pandemic. The text conversations picked up, the friendship grew, and Nikki planned a trip to D.C. for the 2020 March on Washington. (protest against racial injustice)

Nikki was certain her and Chris were just friends, until she hugged him in the airport pick up lane and smelled his cologne. At that moment, she decided he was going to be her boyfriend. (He may not have known it yet).

Chris finally got his 2nd date.

After a year of long distance and month long covid visits, Nikki decided to leave the best city in the whole wide world and start a life with Chris and their fur babies, G&Q in D.C.

Nikki officially became a cat mom when G & Q welcomed her into her new home. Their hearts broke when they gained an angel and said goodbye to Q in 2023. Then in 2024, G got a new baby brother. Wedding day will be Wrigley's 2nd birthday!
