Our story begins with a move across country. Daniel's Brother Brad asked him to come be his roommate in Pensacola Florida .

Shorty after the move Dan went in search of friends to play board games with. After prowling all the local hobby shops he was directed to his soon to be friend Noah on a Facebook gaming group. Where Noah invited Dan to a board game meet up. That day was a catalyst for all of of Dan's Florida social life and eventually the love of his life. But Jasmine hasn't entered the story yet and as a matter of fact Noah himself hadn't either, at least not physically. As it turns out Noah didn't show that night to the game meet up and Dan went to a house of complete strangers (not that going with someone he'd only talked to online was much better!) But even though he didn't meet Noah that day, he would and eventually Jasmine too.

Even though they didn't meet in person that first night the two became friends and soon Noah was inviting Dan to board game nights at Jasmine's house and ultimate frisbee pick up games where Dan and Jasmine first starting becoming friends.

Mutual interests meant the two spent a lot of time with one another. Their friendship grew and strengthened quickly. Soon friendship turned into more and they started dating. From there, their adventure began.

One of the couple's favorite pastimes is gaming with family. When Jasmine first met Dan's family, she was so worried, but they immediately accepted her. Many fun-filled memories have been made around that table.

Dan and Jasmine love to throw fun and interesting parties. Wine tasting parties, thrift shop bingo, Super Mario Brothers tournaments, and even a Bob Ross painting night have made appearances in the couple's life together.

Jasmine's first snow man!

Each year Daniel and Jasmine take a trip for their anniversary to make memories that last a lifetime. During 2018, they traveled to one of Jasmine's favorite places: the Georgia Aquarium.

Halloween is Jasmine's favorite holiday and Dan never fails to support her love for it. The couple have had some excellent homemade costumes including this one inspired by Adventure Time.

Dan adopted Jasmine's fur babies and together they chose to add one more. The couple had made the deal that if they adopted another cat, Dan would get to name him. Chester Copperpot became our VERY loving, cuddly giant orange tabby cat.
