I met Gracey-Hope in 2015 halfway through her first semester of college. Right around that time we had a group of mutual friends that starting getting together to hang. I immediately felt like we would somehow be in each others lives! Our former small town high schools were rivals and happened to be playing each other on the weekend she came home to visit. Our hangout with our friend group that weekend was at Buffalo Wild Wings of all places- the first place we met!

Gracey-Hope and I had many small conversations that night. We both sensed without saying that these small conversations would become the foundation of some type of relationship. Needless to say, it did! For a few months we remained friends, yet eventually found ourselves in a restaurant booth… Again. (We love eating.) All joking aside, we initially found ourselves having 3-4 hour conversations on the phone at night. I'd sit in the garage at dad's workbench and she would sit on her couch and we would dive deep about goals, dreams and what we wanted in this life. Those phone conversations would eventually turn into truck rides late at night and casual 'dates' anywhere that was still open that late.

We knew in no time that we had met someone special for each other. We continued weeding through the surface small talk and naturally challenged each other with hard questions. Those conversations started bringing us closer and closer. We started 'officially' dating mid-July of 2015!
