AJ had recently returned from a deployment when a close friend of both of ours convinced him to buy a house on South Grazing Court. When AJ closed on the house, Kelli insisted on a "Stereotypical closing picture." Tory saw the picture and took the wonderful leap of asking about AJ. After being busy with some of the joys of being an enlisted Marine that Tory has grown acquainted with, AJ finally reached to Tory and the story begins. Their first date started their relationship off in full swing as they agreed to eat at the Topsail Shrimp House while both of them don't like sea food. Through the ups and downs of another deployment and the build up to the deployment, Tory stuck by AJ's side. Upon returning from deployment, AJ proposed to Tory and now we're here. It's been a long winding road and they wouldn't change it for the world. From beach days to playing as a family at the trampoline park, the spark of love has truly touched this family. We hope to see you there to celebrate our South Grazing Love.
