It all started in September 1991, in our sophomore English class. We didn’t know it then, but that first day would change everything. We clicked instantly, like we’d known each other forever. By junior year, we were off to the Sadie Hawkins dance together, where we shared our first kiss — and from that moment on, we were inseparable. Senior year flew by in a blur of memories, laughter, and late-night talks. Then came graduation, and with it, the next chapter — college. Life took us in different directions, and along the way we were each blessed with two incredible kids who became our whole worlds. Fast forward to July 2023. Out of the blue, Brent hit the “Follow” button on Katie’s Instagram, and just like that, the spark reignited. Katie couldn’t resist saying, “It’s about damn time!” Now here we are — back together, stronger than ever, ready to get married and take on life as a team. We can’t wait to cheer on our four badass kids as they conquer the world, and one day, spoil our future badass grandbabies rotten. Because sometimes love takes the scenic route… but it always finds its way home.
