We found love in a hopeless place... in the height of COVID quarantine, July 2020. Maddie had just moved to downtown KC, where she fatefully met a new friend that lived in her apartment complex, Jordan. Little did Maddie and Jordan know that their budding friendship would one day be their budding sisterhood. To celebrate her birthday in July, Jordan invited Maddie out to her family’s lake house, where Maddie and Jacob would meet for the very first time. Just about a month later, the two connected again at another Burns family birthday celebration, where the sparks were undeniably flying. At the end of the evening, Maddie, oh-so-subtly, sent Jacob a DM on Instagram that read, “You’re fun 😊,” followed by her phone number. Somehow, Jacob decoded Maddie’s sly flirtation and excitedly asked her out for their first date. Their first date was immediately followed by a second, and then a third, and then… well, as they say, “the rest is history!”
