Summer 2011: Introduced for the first time while on family vacation at the Jersey Shore (Thanks Jamie!) & ended up staying up talking all night on the beach until sun rise! Went on some dates... but timing was not on their side- kept in touch through out the years ( crushing from a far) Fast forward to Fall 2016: Nick finally found the courage to reach out to his future wife who happened to live in Alabama for graduate school at the time to wish her a Happy Thanksgiving! Winter 2017: Nick flew down to Alabama for his birthday weekend to visit Jessica and they have been adventuring together ever since! July 2019: Got Engaged while hiking in Hawaii! (Nick set his fear of heights a side to pull off the perfect proposal)
