With the American Dream in mind, we did the responsible thing and put all of our cards, and none of our money, on the table. We became homeowners! The house was ugly but the mortgage was cheap…it was the best of times, it was the worst of times. Babies, spiders, and dogs oh my!

One of us wanted to snowboard and drink beer, the other wanted to change the future by having a family—can you guess who wanted what? Could the cognitive dissonance possibly lead to problems? The baby fever breaks and we get a barrel full of monkeys, topped with a butt-load of responsibility.

We were finally 18 and we couldn’t wait to move out! We ditched our home town and got a place of our own complete with: sideways neighbors, occult interactions, and long strolls on the beach. The place we thought we couldn’t wait to get to, ended up being the place we couldn’t wait to get away from!

Not long after the Team Babe Get Together, a rock band is realized. Things get a little rocky, too many divas enter the dance floor, and a power struggle ensues. The music created exposes some ugly egos and some beautiful talents. What could be more romantic than two best friends and a bossy girlfriend? 

A glimpse. An intuition. Misunderstood jokes and bookstore shenanigans brought them together. It was 1996 and things were grungy. A terrible first date, a huge crush, and a long lost cosmic connection laid the foundation of Team Babe.
