[our favorite story] we met through mutual friends while we were both in high school, stayed in touch off and on through college but ended up on separate paths. a few years later, one night while Tyler was visiting home we ran into each other in downtown Knoxville. we hadn't seen each other in a couple of years but we talked for hours that night (and every day since) .... long distance is no joke, but an impromptu beach vacation with Tyler's family sealed the deal. ever since we have been inseparable. hence leading to countless road and air miles traveled whether it was to see each other for a couple of days or even for a few hours. God has his own way of bringing people back together exactly when they're supposed to - and we're so happy He did.
