Separated by three years of age, Christie and McKenzie were both born and raised in Indianapolis, IN, living parallel lives. Little did they know, they even attended the same elementary school at the same time! (Shout out school #91 woot woot!) Their lives converged during the wedding of mutual friends, Karin Williams and Max Hackman. Christie had just moved home from Chicago and was officiating the wedding, while McKenzie was attending with Kris Williams, Karin's little brother. The next day, Christie went to spend more time with the newlyweds and McKenzie was there hanging out with Kris. McKenzie and Christie started talking, laughing and being ridiculous immediately. Luckily Christie gave McKenzie her phone number and they have been talking, playing, traveling and falling in love ever since.
