Christian and Kara first met at a party the night Kara won her high school state championship game her freshman year. Sparks were already flying as they battled in Mortal Combat. They remained friends until Kara got the guts to text Christian first at the end of her sophomore year. She was on the yearbook staff and faked a story about long-boarding in order to start the fling! From the first date on the two of them knew they found something special. They continued dating throughout high school enjoying many school dances, watching each other compete in sports, and getting to know each other's families. They survived a four year long distance spell while Christian attended St. Louis University. They were so excited to live in the same city once again when Christian got accepted to UMKC's Medical School program. Since then they have moved into their place together close to Kara's school and Christian's hospital. They enjoy their coffee dates, Chiefs games, and movie nights. They will have been dating 10 years leading up to their wedding date! Needless to say the two of them are thrilled to finally tie the knot.
