We went to the same elementary and middle schools! We had always known of each other, but somehow we never had a class together. While in college, Amie got Ryan's contact information from a friend because she thought he was SO cute. We connected, and Ryan asked Amie out on their first date. After our first date, we each went separately to our friends, who were waiting in nearby parking lots, to discuss how great the date went. We continued to talk to one another for about 8 months before Ryan made it official. Once together, we became inseparable. It still amazes us that after all these years of knowing one another, all it took was one message!
