Don't Mind If We Do!

While at Texas A&M, Louie lived with some awesome people; one of them being Stephanie Anderson, who also came to be one of Louie's best friends. Stephanie was dating a guy from Austin (Buda to be exact) named Jeff Bondi. One day, Louie, Stephanie and their roommates decided they would throw the party to end all parties at their house, appropriately named BLACK OUT OR GET OUT (yes, college was a lot of fun). Obviously, Stephanie would be inviting Jeff to this epic party, but she would also be inviting Jeff's younger brother, Jacob, who lived in Austin. Louie and the others wanted as many people there as possible, so they said "the more the merrier!" With the guest list set and the bar stocked, the party raged on the night after A&M's first home game against LSU (as a part of the Southeastern Conference, or SEC). Let's just say they weren't celebrating a victory. Louie was inside making drinks for friends when Jacob walked in the door with Stephanie and Jeff. Stephanie introduced Louie to Jacob and...well that's about it. It wasn't a fairy tale love at first sight meeting, but it was later confirmed both of them thought the other was very cute. Clearly! The two had a great time that night, and they became friends on Facebook shortly after. Back in that day, making things FBO (Facebook official) was considered a significant step in any relationship. It wasn't until about a year later that things became more serious, and once again, Stephanie had a hand in bringing the boys closer together. It didn't take long for Louie to decide he was DEFINITELY moving to Austin after graduation. Fast forward to today, Stephanie and Jeff are now married with a child (and one on the way), and Jacob and Louie are ready to start their own happily ever after!
