Laurie had decided to go to Stephenville, Texas to go visit her best friend Jordan at Tarleton State University to see a concert in April of 2016. Jordan just so happened to be dating Max's best friend Austin. The two introduced Laurie and Max to one another, and a relationship grew from there. The coming summer Laurie and Max took turns every other week driving the 217 miles to see each other for six months. After the six months they mutually agreed to become friends. Until six months after that Laurie and Max both attended the same concert as the year prior. Where Max decided to tell her that he was actually in love with her and regretted the way their relationship had went. From there they repeated the same as they had the previous summer until May 30th, 2017. Laurie said that she would like to date Max .Max reluctantly agreed based on the way the year prior had gone. However they continued the long distance relationship seeing each other every weekend until Max had saved up enough money and found a job, thanks to Jordan's father, as an electrician. Max moved to San Antonio on February 1st, 2018 into a town home with a mutual friend named Shelby Ramirez. In the year that Max lived there Laurie showed Max San Antonio, New Braunfels, Port Aransas, Port O'Connor and all the things there were to do that weren't available to Max in Granbury. At the same time that Max was in San Antonio working Laurie was pursuing her BSN in nursing which she achieved in May of 2021. Before she earned her degree Max had asked her father for his blessing for her hand and he gave it to him. So on March 27th, 2021 Max planned to have her closest friends, immediate family, and his family at her graduation pictures where he surprised her when he asked her to marry him. She said "yes", you wouldn't be here if she said no, and since then she has started her career. They have now bought a house, survived a pandemic together, and filled their life together with love.
