Their Story

The couple first crossed paths at Louisiana Tech -- specifically at a social event for the Association of Catholic Tech Students. Sam's fiery and independent spirit shone through a game of Google Jeopardy, and Eric was immediately smitten. Fast forward several months later, and Eric overheard Sam mention something about "Samurai Jack" having a 5th and final season. Intrigued, Eric suggested that he, Sam, and all their friends come together to watch the final season. Together they all laughed, cheered, and cried their way through that final season. From there, the two bonded through memes. They talked and texted every day, and eventually, Sam asked a very interesting question. "Does Maria go to Fontainebleau High?" "Uh... Yeah, how'd you know that?" They realized that it was a small world after all. Even without Ruston, they were just a few miles away from one another. Thus, during a particularly lonely summer in 2017, Eric finally made a move… "Hey. Do you wanna go see Baby Driver?" "With like a group of friends, or just us?" "Just us. This is a date." "... sure, why not?" And that's where it truly began. Since then, the lovely couple have ventured out and made many memories. They currently reside in a quaint little apartment with their cat children (Kitkat and Cinnamon), continuing to forge their bond. Together, they hope to continue to share their love with each other into eternity, and cannot wait to spread that joy to everyone around them. They hope you’re able to join the party!
