Evan and Casie began dating March 10, 2009. Evan, a senior, and Casie, a junior, at Clifton High School.

The first "I love you" was said after a Tarleton State vs. Midwestern State football game.

Dinner at Ocho in San Antonio with a few drinks (to calm the nerves) followed by a proposal overlooking the river walk. It was quaint and simple, but surprising in every way. It was perfect!
