Emily & Bobby met at a bar through a mutual friend in December of 2014, two days before Christmas. Bobby was in Colorado visiting friends and family for his two-week holiday leave from Army basic training. It was a quiet Tuesday evening, so safe to say neither was looking for love! Emily successfully made the first move and asked for Bobby's phone number. The two shared their first date the next evening, on Christmas Eve. By the time Bobby had left to return to finish his basic training 11 days after their first meeting, the two were already inseparable.
