Despite growing up only a half a mile away from each other it took us getting to Manasquan High School to meet. While we had mutual friends, we only knew each other in passing. While we did not have the fortune of know each other since we were kids, we were lucky enough that our brothers did. Growing up John and Craig played Pop Warner Football together with our dads as their coaches. This was the first step of what was to come. Over the years, they grew closer as friends and our families started to mesh. It all culminated when John and Craig both decided to go to Gettysburg College and play football together. Our story really starts here; going to Gettysburg football tailgates and parties(Go Bullets!) Even with the memories of our time at Gettysburg, we did not truly get together until a few years later. We decided to make things official on the 4th of July 2021. It was time to give what we had a real shot and the rest is history. On July 6, 2024, Shawn took the biggest step of his life and proposed to Alicia and she said yes! We are ecstatic to be taking the next step and get married. It is a dream come true! We are looking forward to celebrate with our friends and family in June 2025!
