March 17th, 2012 was a regular Saturday night out on the town--or so we thought! We crossed paths in the most unlikely of ways: one of us was tired, grouchy and ready to go home after a long day, and the other had simply stepped out alone for a drink to clear his mind. Nanci was glad she got her attitude together to step out, and Jay was glad he decided to be in the right place at the right time. During the early portion of our courtship, neither of us had any particular expectations, but instead, just went with the flow in order to experience one another on our own terms. Nanci was unaware she was even in a relationship until one afternoon when Jay’s mom called and he shared that he had “spent the afternoon hanging out with his girlfriend.” Oh? Nanci made note of her new title and went along with it. Years flew by as we took the time to really get to know one another. (The good, the bad, the ugly and in between). A lifetime commitment is a serious deal, and as Percy Sledge would say, “Take time to know her/him, it’s not an overnight thang…” Fast forward to the weeks leading up to the proposal. On September 22nd, Jay took Nanci to dinner, telling her that they would be attending a couples game night later on that evening. Shortly after 12AM on September 23rd, Jay cleverly worked his proposal into the game "Taboo" to ask Nanci a pretty important question, and she gave him an equally important answer. We are so grateful to everyone for the love and support that everyone has shown throughout the years. The enthusiasm and "cheering from the sidelines" has not gone unnoticed; and we need it now more than ever as we prepare for a very exciting time in our lives! Our love for one another is what keeps us going, and we are ready to roll up our sleeves and do the work required to maintain a healthy life partnership. Continue to send prayers, well-wishes, and kind thoughts our way as we plan a party and get married somewhere in the middle! Keep your #EyeOnTheFarrows!
