Joshua and I met through our siblings! I (Bailey) had known Joshua's sister, Katie, and a few of his brothers for several years through homeschool circles/church before we crossed paths. On Labor Day, 2019, we got a group together to hang out at a restaurant in Fort Worth and he introduced himself. Our siblings planned several hangouts after that, and our friendship began to grow. Turns out, we were in the same place at the same time probably 4 or 5 instances before meeting, and didn't know it. Almost 2 years into our friendship we started dating, and 6 months later he popped the question!
