How We Met

First comes school, then comes marriage.

Austin's perspective: Freshman year of college I met Tessa through school events, ice-breakers, and tossing a football to each other. The conversations were first had with one another I noticed right away how smart and funny she is. It was so easy to talk to Tessa at first because we shared similar interests such as video games, fishing, and Mexican food. When Tessa invited me to play video games in her room I was like "hell yeah!". Once we got to know each a little bit more I knew that Tessa is special. Tessa's perspective: The first time I had ever noticed Austin was during the first week of college. We were playing the game "Cards Against Humanity" with most of our Freshman Floor. I think that during the whole time we played, Austin didn't say a word. He was very quiet and shy but he kept winning all the cards! It was hilarious. As the weeks went by, Austin and I began to spend more and more time together. We would play catch, play video games, go to class together and go get some "grub" down at the mess hall. Austin started to grow on me the more time we spent together.
