We're so excited to celebrate with you!

Casey- TJ and I met at Lebanon Valley College through Christian Life on campus. I attended a worship night and a boy caught my eye. I wouldn't say "love at first sight", but I knew I wanted to get to know him. That night, we were assigned to small groups and he was my leader. From there we started going on "study dates" ... where studying quickly took the back burner and learning more about each other took precedence. TJ and I started dating in March, 2018 and did everything we could to spend time with each other... which at times was challenging. We got engaged on Jockey's Ridge in the Outer Banks on July 31st, 2020 with a beautiful sunset behind us. We are so excited to be getting married and finishing up our last externship/clinical together in Virginia. TJ- You already read Casey's story of how we met which is true. What she intentionally left out is that she slid into my Twitter DM's after that worship night to tell me how much she appreciated my passion for the Lord. Well that was a first for me. For a girl to reach out to me to appreciate the significance Christ has on my life. That's a good start in my books. Over the next few months as I began to pursue and understand her heart, I saw how uniquely similar, yet different we were, but how beautiful it was to be loved by someone as caring and dedicated as her. I would say I knew within the first couple of months that I wanted to be with her for the rest of my life, but it wasn't until Casey picked my mom up in June 2020 after a rough year of doing speech therapy with middle/high schoolers online through COVID to take her to Casey's family's beach cottage in the OBX for a week to unwind. Just the two of them. I started to look for rings that very week, and the rest is history!
