I am Robson. I was born in Brazil but have lived in the US for most of my life. Most of my extended family still lives there and we visit when we can. However, both my parents and my brother live in the US. I’ve lived in a few different states, we originally moved to Durham, NC when I was a kid then back to Brazil for a couple of years. When we returned to the US, we lived in Texas where I attended both high school and college. After graduating, I moved to Oklahoma where I met Jennifer and it was almost love at first sight. We met, got married, and spent a number of years there before moving to Washington State to be closer to my parents.
I try to keep a good balance in my hobbies. I’ve always been a fan of video games, but I also enjoy keeping physically active. In the past it was basketball or frisbee with some friends, but recently I have been doing regular strength training. You’ll often find me watching a good movie or sitting on the couch with a new book. A joy for reading was something I picked up from my parents starting back in middle school when I borrowed a paperback my dad had taken with us to the beach, and it’s something I hope to kindle a passion for in my future child as well. I also enjoy cooking, baking, and while I’m not great, I am also a big fan of karaoke even if it’s sometimes just singing in the car.
Hello, my name is Jennifer and I was raised in Springdale, Arkansas by my grandmother. Music was always an integral part of my life since I was a child. I participated in Band, Choir, and enjoyed after school programs like B.E.S.T. Robotics. I graduated with honors at the Springdale Senior High School in 2006, and began community college that summer. After a year at the Northwest Arkansas Community College, I moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma where I attended the University of Tulsa. I graduated with my Bachelors in Arts for Vocal Performance in 2011. It was soon after graduating college that Robson and I started dating after meeting online. We fell in love quickly and knew we wanted to build a life together.
In my freetime, I love to read, play the piano, take walks to enjoy and appreciate nature, cuddle with my pets next to the fireplace, and drive to Seattle to see Seattle Opera performances. I’m also a huge foodie, so I love trying out different food places and cuisine from other cultures. Robson and I have been trying to hike because the views in Washington are so breathtakingly beautiful. I always feel surrounded by nature even though we are in a developed area.
We have two wonderful pets, Sam and Marie. Sam is a small terrier weighing around 18 pounds. He loves giving and receiving affection, playing with his toys, and napping Marie is a calico cat, the runt of her litter and definitely an indoor cat. She was taken in by Jennifer and while sometimes slow to warm up to new people, she’s ultimately a very sweet cat.
