Our story usually begins with the audience taken by surprise at How We Met (yes, a relationship that blossoms out of an abundance of jack cokes and dirty dancing can become something more than the usual DC fling), bowled over at The Proposal (“He did something other than the dinner date proposal, how unique!”), and finally, dumbfounded at why we both still suffer live outside Washington D.C. ( I ask myself that every day on my 1+hour drive to and from work too!).

And hopefully, one day soon, we will pack up our furkids and my shoe collection and head for greener, less stressful pastures. Until then, we will continue to drown our traffic sorrows with our ever growing wine collection and de-stress about our careers by playing with our three, smooshy-faced furbabies. Cody will continue to fill his humidor with $25.00 cigars while I will continue to fill my closet and hanging, dented dress racks with more beautiful collector items (Yes, I collect dresses and love fashion…sue me).

Our story is a glimpse into the beginnings of a new life together - a new life that hopefully soon comes with a big, back yard, ample storage space and a built in wine-refrigerator.  Oh yeah, and no traffic!
