Like any modern couple, we swiped right... or whatever Hinge's version of that is. We quickly agreed to meet up to see if we had anything in common and grabbed beers at Little Woodrow's on Burnet. We both loved Austin and wanted to settle down here, we were both tired of the dating apps, we both had adorable pups (Murphy was on the date too), and both of our dads (and my mom) were accountants- fun! Conversation was easy and we bonded over our love of live music and good food. We quickly became integral to each other's lives, meeting family and friends, attending lots of live music, and traveling together. Nicole went to her first Panic show, Greg learned (a few) Taylor Swift lyrics, and Valley learned to tolerate Murphy's puppy energy. Although our first year together was full of ups and downs, we have never been happier because we get to weather the highs and lows together. We are overwhelmed with joy and excited to get our favorite people together this year to celebrate with us!
