Summer 2021: Both Jaycee and Tim were starting a new chapter of their lives in the south to train further for their careers. Since they were in a new place, how does anyone meet new people to date these days…the apps. Tim and Jaycee matched and decided to meet up on a Sunday. Despite Tim being a gentleman and asking to pick Jaycee up for the date, she politely declined as she wasn’t going to have this stranger knowing where she lived. Little did they know in due time Tim would be spending a lot of time at Jaycee’s house. The first date, as you can imagine, went really well and more topics were talked about than typical fashion for a first date. Luckily, Tim passed the test as he offered to pay for the first date meal and they ended up having to stop their conversation to ensure both of them were able to get back to their houses to be prepared for the upcoming work week. The following weekend they spent in Columbus, GA and walked down to the riverwalk for the first time which became a common adventure spot for Tim and Jaycee. They ended up spending every weekend after that seeing each other and were always eager for the next time. They moved to Tennessee in 2022 where they stayed strong through a deployment. During their stay in Tennessee, they spent a lot of time together line and country swing dancing in Nashville. Now back in Georgia, Jaycee and Tim found themselves again at the Columbus riverwalk, not unlike a lot of other times, however, this evening was very special as while on the bridge overlooking the water, Tim got down on one knee and popped the question to which Jaycee responded, “yes” with a happy smile. They are both excited to continue their journey of life together in holy matrimony!
