We met at a house party in 2019 and quickly became friends.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, we spent a lot of time on group calls and playing cup pong over messenger. When we could, we would spend time hanging out at a distance with friends. In the fall semester, Megan took a physics class that almost ended her academic career, and Alex saved the day by offering to tutor her.

One day Alex told Megan that he had a crush on her. This changed the friendship big time and we started dating in November of 2020. We enjoyed going on hikes and getting to know each others' families better.

Megan moved to Halifax in February 2021 and we started doing long distance. When Megan moved to Halifax full time the following September, it didn't take long (less than a week, I think) for Alex to book a flight to visit. For the next 2 years, we split our time between Montreal and Halifax, building homes in both cities.

We spent a few years exploring the east coast. Alex was able to get to Halifax about once a month, and worked from Megan's apartment for a week at a time. In the evenings, we spent time with friends and loved exploring local breweries.

We took our first big trip to Alaska during summer break.

Megan moved back to Montreal for her final clinical placement, and took over Alex's apartment. We flew back to Halifax for grad and had so much fun celebrating with the Dal family. Soon after, they moved again into a bigger apartment.

We got engaged in New York City on July 19th, 2023. We feel so blessed to be celebrating our wedding day on the 2-year anniversary of one of the best days of our lives.

On March 10th, the day finally came for us to bring our puppy, Maki into our home. We had been wanting a Shiba Inu puppy for years and were so excited to welcome him into the family.

The 3 of us got the keys to our first home!
