In a little corner of East Texas, there is a pretty wonderful place called The Pines Catholic Camp. This is where Eddie and Mary met. Both were counselors in the summer of 2016 which is arguably the best summer of The Pines ever. Because we are a "Camp Relationship" there are a couple of unique quirks our relationship has. One of the most prevalent is our love of Hawaiian shirts which we wore every Wednesday during camp and still wear on most Fridays! When you hear "Go Trees", you'll know youve met one of the other members of the The Pines Catholic Camp family. Needless to say, Summer 2016 at The Pines holds a very special place in our hearts.
We've got a little story for you Ags. On a beautiful Sunday morning in College Station, Eddie took Mary on a walk around the A&M Campus that would change their lives. After putting a penny on Sully's shoe for luck (which all good Ags know is the best thing to do for luck), Eddie led Mary under the Century Tree. Now all you good Ags know that you only walk under this tree with one person, the person you will spend the rest of your life with. That's why when Eddie and Mary walked under that tree, he asked her the question that countless men have asked down on one knee under that old tree.
