Jacob and I worked at Academy Sports and Outdoors as college students, he was taking a semester off and I was busy trying not to fail my next Calculus class. We were friends before we started dating, he was my favorite co-worker and when I had a headache I laid my head on his register and he would scratch the top of my head. My last day at Academy he asked me to hang out outside of work, and I asked him to go to my church for the college bible study group I attended and the rest of it is history.

February 8th 2020, it was my birthday and we went out to dinner at Kobe steakhouse with his parents. After the dinner we went to our apartment and picked up our pupper, Sassafras, and drove to his parents’ Leander home. At his parents’ house they have a small cottage in their front yard with Sassafras in tow Jacob and I walked to the porch of the cottage where he asked me to marry him after I protested about why he was acting weird, I eventually said yes 😂 By the way as soon as he asked me there was a waterfall of tears.
