Lupe is born! Chicago holds this kid’s heart, memories, and all the pozole one can eat.

Sebastien is born! New Jersey was the stomping ground for this kiddo (but he only claims his Canadian roots).

The first photo of Lupe and Sebastien to exist. A secret Santa gift exchange sophomore year. Lupe got Sebastien and got him Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal, 100 grand candy bars, and a blue bowl that rumor has it is still in their kitchen to this day.

Mostly the date our friendship came to fruition - sophomore year of college. Sebastien was having a tough time finding his ‘group’ at BC, and Lupe invited him to join hers during Marathon Monday.

A little pre-finals trip to Castle Island sophomore year.

Halloweekend 2017. Junior year of college and Lupe and Sebastien were living just a couple floors apart in 2K. They started to spend a lot of time together and going to parties with each other was no exception. (In case you couldn’t tell, these costumes were purchased 20 minutes before at CVS)

Easter break of Junior Year. Sebastien went with Lupe and her roommates to Portland, Maine for a day-trip.

First football game of senior year. Sebastien and Lupe may look like they were dating in this picture, but it would still be another 2 months before they told each other they had feelings for one another.

The night it all began. Dinner at Cityside, dancing at Tits, a late night snack of McDonalds chicken nugs, and a first kiss.

Lupe’s 22nd Birthday senior year of college. We were Troy and Gabriella.

SCRUBS senior year. Lupe and Sebastien were both leaders. Sebastien spoke openly for the first time about their relationship during his speech.

Marathon Monday senior year of college. Things really came a long way from sophomore year for these two, but the jerseys stayed the same.

Graduation. They did it!

Well….they ALMOST did it! Still had to study for and pass the NCLEX :/

Boston Pride Parade! Lupe’s first pride and Lupe and Sebastien’s first pride together #babygays

Anniversary trip to Niagara Falls! Lupe was in NY doing JVC and Sebastien was living in Boston - but we had to celebrate the anniversary together! 1 whole year!

The final visit before COVID. Sebastien drove to Syracuse to visit Lupe and little did they know that they wouldn’t see each other again for another 5 months.

The reunion! Lupe moved back to Boston following her JVC year, and later that same month Sebastien and Lupe would officially move in together!

Sebastien’s first visit to Chicago! A weekend marked by paletas, deep dish pizza, and many, many donut shops.

They’re Engaged!! At a random hill in JP. 1/22/22.

A quick trip up to Montreal for art museums, good food, and, oh yea, Bad Bunny!!

A visit to DC!

Bad Bunny Round 2! This time in Boston, and this time with the GOAT of albums…Un Verano Sin Ti.

T-Swift concert! I think this concert officially solidified Lupe into the fandom.

5 Years of Lupe & Sebastien! To celebrate - a trip to NYC and a haircut!!

‘Real Women Have Curves’ at the ART in Cambridge! If it were up to us, this show would be on Broadway already.

Lupe’s first time in Disney World! Don’t be fooled by the face of concentration on Sebastien…we both lost pretty horribly.
