- Jeff: I like to sit in the front row of classes, especially ones where there is a possibility I'm not very good in that subject. Sitting in the front row forces me to pay attention. So I walk up to the front of this long classroom and there are a limited number of seats available. Among the people s [...]
- Jennie: Jeff didn't know that our first date was a date, exactly. We had been friends for a while, and at the beginning of my junior year, we had started to meet up for coffee once in a while, and talk about how dating was hard in Boston...by the time Christmas rolled around, I thought maybe it wasn [...]
- Jeff: The summer after graduation was spent planning an epic road trip to move to Los Angeles. Shortly after completing an internship, I decided that I could take on California and make it work. I may have jumped in with both feet not knowing what was about to happen. My first couple of months were [...]
- Jeff: I'm a big fan of surprising people. I really love to see the look on people's faces when they're surprised. Sometimes I forget what gifts I've given people because I'm so excited to see their reaction that I forget. The idea to surprise Jennie at her parents house for Thanksgiving snuck int [...]

Similar to the Thanksgiving surprise, the idea popped into my head earlier that year before Jennie had even [...]
- In 2009, Jeff turned 25, and I threw him a surprise party to hopefully counter his awesome surprises over the years. He was truly surprised when he showed up - and thought the party was for me! Our birthdays are a week apart, so he thought that our friends were throwing me a surprise party, and then [...]
- In 2010, Jennie and Jeff headed to the sea with Jeff's family to cruise around the Bahamas! It was the first time Jennie met much of Jeff's family, and they had a wonderful time on the biggest cruise ship on the water at the time. Getting to know Jeff's family was fun and relaxing when on white-sand [...]
- Jeff and I started running in earnest in 2012, starting with our first 5K together in September. After that first one, we ran several more together including a 5k Turkey Trot with my family Thanksgiving of 2012, a 10k in December of 2012, and the ever-fun Color Run 5K in February of 2013. In March o [...]
- Jeff: It's no secret that I like to document everything. My philosophy is that we're only on this Earth once and every minute that goes by is a minute you'll never get back so you should not only make the most of it, but document all the fun you had along the way. It had been a while since I had [...]
