I (Leanne) relocated from Houston to Tampa in February of 2020 for a job opportunity with Lap of Love. Little did I know, the world would shut down less than a month later secondary to COVID-19. With this newfound challenge of meeting people in a new city, I downloaded a dating app for the first time. Ryan and I managed to "match" on "Hinge" in August of 2020. I initially messaged Ryan after viewing a quote from The Office on his profile (still one of our favorite TV shows today), and he quickly suggested we meet. It turns out that Ryan and I lived about 50 yards apart in different buildings of the same apartment complex, yet we had never met. Ryan recommended we meet at the Irish pub located below our complex, and it was a date. We met up for what we thought was going to be a very casual dinner and drinks, but several hours later we were still having a ball. Sparks continued to fly over the next few months as we got to know one another, sharing goals, values, and endless laughs. Ryan even passed (with flying colors) the ultimate test of meeting my Golden Retriever, Bowie, and the boys became thick as thieves in no time. Our love has continued to grow and here we are today: asking each of you to help us celebrate spending the rest of our lives together.
