Our story began in seventh grade math class. At the time, we had no idea that the person sitting next to us would one day become the love of our lives. In fact, if you had asked us back then, we probably would have said the opposite. Somehow, though, between shared classes and teachers who seemed determined to keep seating us next to each other, what started as a simple friendship slowly turned into something much more. Looking back now, we’re pretty sure our teachers might have been the real matchmakers all along. As the years passed, we went from classmates, to best friends, to a relationship that carried us through some of the most formative years of our lives. We didn’t just fall in love—we grew up together. At 18, we took a big leap and moved in together, and not long after we got our own place—learning along the way that building a life together means a lot of laughter, patience, and figuring things out as we go. These days our home is a little louder and a lot furrier thanks to our three beloved pets—Beaux, Brewer, and Penny—who we proudly consider our first babies. Through the years, we’ve grown up together—sharing laughter, learning through life’s ups and downs, navigating challenges, and experiencing all the little moments in between that have shaped who we are today. Some people go their entire lives without finding their soulmate—we were lucky enough to find ours sitting right next to us in seventh grade math class. We are forever grateful that God brought us together and allowed us to be each other’s person. We pray that our love continues to grow, that we always find strength in one another, and that our life together is filled with faith, laughter, and lasting happiness.
