For those who don’t know, we met while working at Smiths (a grocery store here in Vegas equivalent to Ralph’s!) We both worked there and worked nearly opposite shifts. We only saw each other in passing. By chance, Jackie had to work late and cover a shift for someone, and we got to work together and actually talk for the first time! After that, we took advantage of the opportunity to say hi and bye in passing!

Soon after, Jackie moved to work in the bakery, so we didn’t see each other too much. After a while, Jackie had been swapped to nights most of the week. Chris always made time to come and say hi to her when he got to work, and he would take the long way around the store to see her! Not to mention, when there was a break in his work, Chris would help her when she needed it! This blossomed into a friendship and clearly something more after a while!

We started officially dating in January 2019 and have been inseparable ever since! We moved in together a few years ago, and we even have a beautiful feline son, Nori!
