Sarah and Blake initially met their freshman year of college in 2005 at Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas. According to Sarah, meeting Blake was very memorable because he was the only freshman with a mohawk and a bright yellow Nissan Xterra that said “Wolfpack 4 Lyf3” (wolfpack for life) on the back. But most important of all, he was a genuinely friendly guy with a great sense of humor. Over the next 3 years, they became good friends as they were in psychology classes and a kickboxing class together. In the summer of 2008, Sarah and Blake’s friendship grew as they entered senior year, Blake introduced Sarah to Korean food for the first time, they bonded over really bad (or awesomely amazing, to be honest) 90’s rock/ alternative music (such as Creed, Third Eye Blind, Limp Bizkit, etc.), and decided to make their relationship official in September 2008.

Over the last 9 years, Blake and Sarah have been through a lot together. They have raised their crazy but lovable dog, Pepper, survived several moves and a few years in different cities while Sarah finished her PhD, and been there for each other when life has thrown its curve balls.
