The two of us met at the very beginning of our sophomore year of college at Texas A&M. It was our first Sunday back in College Station, and we both went to serve with the college ministry at First Baptist Bryan that morning. I (Brooke) went over to the welcome team to see if I could help out and introduced myself to Christopher, who was the leader of that group (I thought he was so cute :D).

After that, we kept seeing each other at church and would talk every now and then. I kept thinking to myself, “wow, he is so friendly!”, but I never thought anything of it. Meanwhile, Christopher was scheming ways to ask for my number. A couple weeks later, I (Brooke) got a text from Christopher asking me to go to a date party with him for his organization (he got my number from one of his friends whom I also knew). We went to the date party together and hit it off! Christopher asked me on a date at the end of the night, and 5 dates later, we were boyfriend and girlfriend :)

Fun fact: at the end of our first official date, we were both not getting the vibe that it would go anywhere. But Christopher asked on a second date anyway, and Brooke said yes just to get to know each other more. But good thing we did, because now we’re in love forever and ever!

At Caleb and Andrea’s wedding (Christopher’s brother and sister-in-law), Christopher and I discovered that we had mutual feelings about wanting to be married to each other one day. We got engaged on March 29th , 2025, and the rest is history!
