Like all of the best love stories, Jimmy and Theresa met in line at a bar while out with some mutual friends. Their first meeting was short, sweet, and quite forgettable. They wouldn't cross paths again until a couple months later after Theresa returned from a long underway. A friend had finally convinced her to come to a barbecue at Jimmy's house (to be fair it was advertised as "a house 45 minutes away and oh by the way six Marines live there," so you can understand the hesitation). However once they arrived, things quickly clicked between the two. They spent the whole night talking and laughing like they'd known each other forever. Their first date was on a San Diego Friday night, with Jimmy coming out of the field and making it barely and exactly on time. One date became two and three, and their relationship became official on the most romantic day of the year- The Army Navy Game. Since then, Theresa has begun her second tour, Jimmy completed his first deployment, and the two have spent time visiting each other's wonderful families on hasty but memorable trips on opposite ends the country. That brings us here.
