John and I met when he was out with his friends and I was out with mine (Paige and Missy). The bar we met at is called The Draft House and neither one of us had ever been there until that night. His friends started talking to mine and then he bought us drinks. We then went to another bar after that and I was about to leave when my friend Missy reminded me that I still needed to get his number...thanks Miss;) I texted him the next morning and we had the best first date ever and the rest was history! Side note: John's family and my family actually knew each other when we were kids and grew up together at the same church. I was best friends with his sister Katie and our moms were best friends:) It was our second date when John told me that our families knew each other. It was definitely unexpected but also ended up being the coolest love story ever:)
