It Started at the White Horse

With a little help from a wingwoman and a name tag

John first spotted Meadow across a crowded dance hall and immediately knew he was going to ask her out. Being John, however, he decided to give her some space first. Later that evening, he finally walked over, planted himself in front of her with his hands on his hips—a habit left over from his days as a UT mascot—and proudly announced, "I'm John Jennings." The name tag may have already given that away. John picked up Meadow and a mutual friend for blues dancing the next evening. In a remarkable coincidence, Kathleen had to cancel at the last minute. What followed was a "not date" that somehow lasted for hours and very quickly turned into an actual date the next day. Between dancing, church, long conversations, and discovering just how much they enjoyed being together, a friendship quickly grew into something much more. The rest of the story includes countless dance floors, a lot of laughter, a shared faith, and one very obvious conclusion: John found his Meadow.
