How long have you two been dating for? – 6 months

How did you two meet?

AP: I met Luke through a good friend, Zack Cinotto, during our freshmen year. We were acquaintances until this past summer when we were set up on a double date in Chicago.

LL: Alyssa and I met freshmen year during a leadership class we both took through St. Ambrose University.

What did you do on your first date?

AP: We went out for a Friday night in Chicago and then spent the rest of the weekend in Luke’s hometown at his friend’s lake house.

LL: On our first date, Alyssa and I shared the night with two close friends of ours. The night began at my sister’s house where Alyssa got to meet a few of my many siblings. Then ended at a variety of bars in Lincoln Park. 

Favorite memory together?

AP: My favorite memory was our first weekend together- boating all day on the river, jet skiing, bridge jumping, and meeting his friends/family.

LL: My favorite memory that I shared with Alyssa was going to a Tim McGraw concert in her hometown. The cool part about the experience was I got to listen to great music and be accompanied by her friend group, along with my friend group. Oh and the beer was ice cold.

What’s your favorite thing(s) about one another?

AP: My favorite thing about Luke is his contagious personality. He always has something to talk about and is so extremely weird. There is definitely never a dull moment when he’s around! 

LL: Alyssa always has the capability of making me happy. She is a real down to earth person who allows me to be myself day in and day out.

Favorite thing to do together?

AP: My favorite thing to do together is visit each other’s families. We are both the youngest of big, close-knit, and fun families!

LL: My favorite thing to do with Alyssa is spend time with our siblings.  We both have siblings who share a lot in common. So you could imagine we have a lot of fun.
