Grace and Sam met on Bumble. If you're not familiar with Bumble, the woman messages the guy first if there's a match. Grace remembers debating on swiping right with Sam because he only had two pictures on his profile. Grace messaged Sam on 1/25/21 which begins their story...

Sam worked for Disney at the time which faired well for him with Grace. Their first date was at Magic Kingdom. They rode rides, talked, watched the parade, ate Dole Whip, and went to Disney Springs for dinner at Terralina. This picture of Cinderella's Castle is from their first date (see the people wearing masks?).

For their second date, Sam brought Grace donuts from Everglazed. This gave him his nickname - donut guy (Thanks Dana!).

After becoming an officialy couple on 3/4/2021, Sam and Grace took their first cruise on Freedom of the Seas! The port stops were Nassau and Coco Cay. This was Sam and Grace's first cruise ever and they got hooked!

Continuing their first vacation together, Sam and Grace drove from Miami to Key West. They made memories stopping at Robbie's Marina, eating at Conch Republic Seafood Company and Seaside Cafe at The Mansion, taking a full day excursion with Fury, and trying as many key lime pies as possible!

Grace and Sam (and Nico!) officially moved in together to test the next stage of their relationship.

Sam visited Iowa for the first time with Grace! Thank you Jenn and Thomas for hosting!

Pumpkin joined the Roman pack. Sam and Grace were so happy Nico and Pumpkin became close friends and they loved running up and down the stairs.

In preparation for their cruise through the Northeast, Sam took Grace shopping for new dresses. Little did Grace know those dresses were actually for something much more important...

Grace had brunch plans with her friends, Ashley and Yannette a couple months in advance. What Grace didn't know is that these brunch plans had been orchestrated by Sam. The morning of the surprise proposal, the three friends ate brunch at Boca in Winter Park and then spent the rest of the day exploring Park Ave.

While the ladies were enjoying their day in Winter Park, Sam was preparing for his big surprise...

Ashley and Yannette planned a cover story to get Grace to Kraft Azalea Garden. This is Grace posing for an Instagram photo before she saw Sam.

She said yes! Now their next adventure begins...
