We met at the mall in Springfield, IL in 2021. Jake was looking for shoes for Jackson and Gracie and Adrienne was looking for shoes for work. After Adrienne had finished checking out with her work shoes, she asked the cashier for a piece of paper from the receipt printer and a pen, wrote her name and phone number down, walked over to Jake, handed it to him, and walked away. Almost five years later, we own our home, have three amazing kids, and are making it official with Adrienne stealing Jake's last name in November of 2025!
