It all started with great timing... and a little help from some friends. Jesse was going to the annual MKE halloween bar crawl with his friends Dylon and David. Hope was third wheeling (per usual) with her friends Meaghan and Nick after leaving Mady and Jon's costume party. Meaghan had come up with the brilliant (and slightly mischievous) idea to find Hope a husband that night. Hope, though very skeptical of Meaghan's matchmaking skills, was always down for a good time. As the night went on, Meaghan would nudge Hope toward various guys on the dance floor, hoping one might catch her eye. Unbeknownst to her friend, Hope had high standards. This went on a few times- with no luck- until one well-timed push landed her in a group of lumberjacks. Hope turned around and was pleasantly surprised to see a handsome young man in cut off jean shorts. Jesse and his friends being polite, thought nothing of it and kept dancing. Hope, feeling a spark of confidence, asked Meaghan to push her into the group again. This time, a little blonde girl in a witch costume with black lipstick caught Jesse's eye. He introduced himself and asked for Hope's phone number right as the lights flipped on and music screeched to a halt. After their first date, Hope told her family she would marry Jesse one day. Lucky for her, Jesse fell just as fast.
