Back in late October of 2019, Savanah was just getting ready for her first front desk shift at a local yoga studio.

The job was simple as could be: greet practicing students as they came through the door, check them in for their class, and send them on their way with a smile. Every guest was warm and kind— asking her if she was new, and helping her through the check-in process when something didn't quite click— but only one of them was bold enough to talk to her after class, too.

About a blown-out tendon in his ring finger, no less.

Brendan recounted all the gnarly details of the most recent rock climbing injury he'd endured, and Savanah fell in love right then and there. She spent the rest of the day wondering if she'd get the chance to see him again, and as it turned out, Brendan was wondering the same thing!

When the following Sunday rolled around, Brendan got up the courage to ask her out to dinner.

In response, Savanah wrote out her phone number on a nearby sticky note, slid it across the desk, and the rest, as they say, is history.
