We love to tell of how we got "set up" by our moms, but here's the full story- Emylee just graduated from physical therapy school and moved to Huntsville, Alabama for her first adult job. She knew one good friend from high school and one friend from studying abroad who lived there, but otherwise no one. Jarrett had lived in Huntsville since he was a freshman at UAH so by this point he had been living there for 5 years. Jarrett's dad and Emylee's step-dad were in the same mountain biking group in Dothan, Alabama so when Emylee moved to Huntsville, her mom suggested meeting Jarrett who had an established friend group and enjoyed playing in a tennis league. Emylee also grew up playing tennis and had recently gotten into playing in a tennis league in Knoxville, Tennessee when she was in physical therapy school. They originally planned to meet at a local coffee shop downtown, but it was going to close by the time Emylee got off of work, so they decided to meet at a sports bar called The Martin for a drink. Jarrett later invited Emylee to play tennis with a couple of friends, Jared and Marissa Nixon. They all went to lunch after that, and Jarrett and Emylee continued to hang out for the rest of that day. They continued to talk and spend time together more frequently and the rest is history! :)
