We first met in college through mutual friends during the fall of 2018, but at the time, it didn’t feel like anything more than a casual introduction. It wasn’t until the following spring that we really began to connect and get to know each other. That summer, I (Lauren) moved back home to Austin, and as life took us in different directions, we started to drift apart… until the Texas Longhorns brought us back together in the fall of 2019. While attending a UT game, Johnny and I reconnected over our shared love for the team, and from there, everything changed. We started calling and visiting each other every weekend—making the nearly 400-mile roundtrip just to spend time together. Then, in March of 2020, we officially became a couple. Two years later, we welcomed our beautiful son, Hayes, into the world. Now, after five wonderful years, we’re so excited to tie the knot surrounded by the friends and family who’ve been part of our journey! Take a look at one of our first official pics together!! (lol)
