Later the next year, Ryan and Angela bought their first house! Albeit an enigmatic combination of stress and delight, home ownership opened the door for them to explore an entirely new world of interests and responsibilities. After a celebratory night out, they dove head-first into navigating their way through basic DIY renovations to transform the house they purchased into their very own home. (All this with a great deal of help from family and friends!)

After months of laborious nights and weekends, they'd worked up quite a hunger. Even though macaroni and cheese and PB&Js will always hold a place in Ryan's heart, they decided to try their hands at the culinary craft. Angela prefers baking delicious treats for Ryan to steal while she's not looking, and Ryan has taken to just about anything he can put on the grill or fry up in a skillet skillet for a delicious king-sized hot breakfast.

Wait... is that a second orange cat? TWO ORANGE BOYS??? ARE THEY CRAZY?? No, they're not crazy, they've been chosen. In June of 2023, they adopted Squid (f.k.a. "Milo") from a mutual friend at Clarkston Community Band! That last picture captures his personality pretty well.
