Our story began almost 3 years ago on that fateful night at the bowling alley on Armenia Ave in Tampa. Even though we had never met, our mutual friends Ryan & Becki Maas, who had been trying for a while to get us to meet finally managed to get the both of us in the same place at the same time. Ever since that first night we never have missed even one day of talking or seeing each other. Since the beginning it has been an adventure, literally, with GTD trips to places like Costa Rica... rapelling down 165ft waterfalls in the middle of the jungle or midnight boating in 0 visability fog out to Beer Can Island to watch fireworks for the new year! Being together has always just seemed right and fun from the very beginning. Now it's time to take it to the next level and we invite you to join us!
