The Tale of Bree & Jeffrey
Bree and Claire Take on The Great White North
Some friendships are so tight, they’re basically a package deal. That’s Bree and Claire—unstoppable, inseparable, and always up for an adventure. In 2021, they packed their lives (and their beloved fur babies, Gracie and Rosie) into a Chevy and a VW Golf and hit the road for Labrador City. Why? Claire was chasing love (hi, Brett), and Bree was chasing… well, Claire—plus a promising new career.
Claire dove headfirst into romance, while Bree took a job at the local brewery, filling time while scoping out opportunities in Labrador’s Iron Ore scene. Little did she know, that brewery was more than just a place slinging craft beer. It was about to serve up a life-changing IPA—er, we mean encounter.
Then there’s Jeffrey….
Enter Jeffrey. Born in Ontario, raised in Montreal, and somehow ending up in Labrador City (thanks, Dad’s hometown). Jeffrey was the kind of guy who could fix your car and then play drums about it in a band. His happy place? A garage full of sporty Subarus, where he’d bring cars to life with the same passion most of us reserve for pizza. His pride and joy? A shiny blue Subaru STI that he drove straight to—guess where—the brewery.
Girl Meets Boy (and Subaru)
One ordinary day, Jeffrey walked into the brewery, but for Bree, it was anything but. Her coworkers knew him (small town perks), but to Bree, he was just a guy with a cool car and an air of mystery. Naturally, Bree made the first move—because if you want something done right, you do it yourself.
Sure, Jeffrey’s Subaru wasn’t the VW she had a soft spot for, but close enough. Soon after, Bree got a message from him, and the sparks started flying. But wait—this wasn’t just fate. Turns out, Taylor (Bree’s coworker) had been hyping her up to Devon (Jeffrey’s best friend’s sister), who then nudged Jeffrey to take the plunge. Small towns, man.
Building a Crew
Before long, Bree, Jeffrey, her pup Rosie, and his dog Russ were a full-blown squad. Russ did his best to keep things spicy by regularly eating Bree’s shoes, but hey—no family is perfect. Their bond grew over time, with shared adventures and one life-changing trip to Portugal.
Fun fact: Bree had planned a romantic sunset horseback ride, but, uh, missed it completely. No worries—Jeffrey swooped in with a surprise proposal, pulling a ring out of his bag instead of the lip balm Bree was expecting. Honestly? A way better trade.
Weathering Storms
Of course, life isn’t all sunsets and proposals. Bree and Jeffrey faced heartbreak when Rosie, their beloved pup, passed away at just four years old. It was a tough blow, but together, they honored her memory and found healing. Eventually, they welcomed Lennon—a feisty, shoe-chewing furball who brought chaos and joy back into their lives.
The Future Looks Bright (and Italian)
From chance meetings in Labrador City to dreamy cliffs in Portugal, Bree and Jeffrey’s story is full of twists, turns, and a whole lot of love. Next up? A stunning Italian wedding—because when your love story feels like a movie, the wedding should too.
Through it all, Bree and Jeffrey have built a life that’s adventurous, resilient, and—let’s be honest—pretty hilarious. With love, dogs, and the occasional shoe casualty, they’re proving that the best stories are the unexpected ones. Stay tuned, because these two are just getting started
