Our Wedding

<p>Gavin and I met at Ball State University in the spring of 2018. We were both majoring in Exercise Science and had several overlapping classes that semester. If you want the full story of how I set a trap for him and that he fell for it, ask me later ;).&nbsp;We started dating later that year, and spent our final year at BSU together until we both graduated in the summer of 2019. Since then, we have been long distance and supporting each other throughout some pretty cool things.&nbsp; I moved to North Carolina in the spring of 2020 to pursue a graduate degree in physical therapy, and&nbsp;I've been in NC ever since.  Gavin has lived in Georgia, Indiana, West Virginia, and South Carolina working at several different universities as their strength and conditioning coach. All we can say is thank goodness for phone calls and FaceTime!  For the past year and a half, we've only lived an hour away from each other and have enjoyed lunch and dinner dates at breweries, and so so many sporting events. We've been together for a long time and we're excited to keep experiencing life together, just from a closer proximity now!</p>
