Jake met Janine while she was working briefly at Boot Barn. Jake and his friend Cody had come in to get a hat cleaned, and while he was there, he caught a brief glimpse of Janine and decided she was someone he needed to talk to. After a bit of conversation, Jake asked Janine if she would like to grab drinks, and she told him she “could be persuaded”. She eventually agreed to go out with him that evening after she got off work. After a 6 hour date, the rest became history. They have been laughing together ever since.
