Our Wedding

November&nbsp;2,&nbsp;2021 Jerney:&nbsp;My&nbsp;friend&nbsp;Alaina&nbsp;spontaneously&nbsp;asked&nbsp;if&nbsp;I&nbsp;wanted&nbsp;to&nbsp;meet&nbsp;her&nbsp;friend&nbsp;Jacob.&nbsp;Without&nbsp;a&nbsp;second&nbsp;thought,&nbsp;I&nbsp;agreed&nbsp;and&nbsp;we&nbsp;made&nbsp;the&nbsp;quick&nbsp;drive&nbsp;to&nbsp;his&nbsp;apartment.&nbsp;Jacob,&nbsp;Alaina&nbsp;and&nbsp;I&nbsp;hung&nbsp;out&nbsp;while&nbsp;Josh&nbsp;sat&nbsp;quietly&nbsp;watching&nbsp;a&nbsp;football&nbsp;game&nbsp;on&nbsp;the&nbsp;TV.&nbsp;He&nbsp;barely&nbsp;said&nbsp;a&nbsp;word&nbsp;the&nbsp;whole&nbsp;time&nbsp;I&nbsp;was&nbsp;there.&nbsp;Little&nbsp;did&nbsp;he&nbsp;know&nbsp;that&nbsp;I&nbsp;would&nbsp;spend&nbsp;some&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;next&nbsp;several&nbsp;months&nbsp;wondering&nbsp;how&nbsp;I&nbsp;could&nbsp;get&nbsp;him&nbsp;to&nbsp;speak. Josh:&nbsp;My&nbsp;first&nbsp;thought&nbsp;when&nbsp;I&nbsp;met&nbsp;Jerney&nbsp;was&nbsp;how&nbsp;I&nbsp;could&nbsp;make&nbsp;a&nbsp;joke&nbsp;about&nbsp;having&nbsp;a&nbsp;Dodge&nbsp;Journey.&nbsp;Then&nbsp;I&nbsp;was&nbsp;just&nbsp;quiet&nbsp;the&nbsp;entire&nbsp;time&nbsp;after&nbsp;that&nbsp;because&nbsp;I&nbsp;was&nbsp;too&nbsp;nervous&nbsp;to&nbsp;talk&nbsp;to&nbsp;her.&nbsp;I&nbsp;did&nbsp;make&nbsp;a&nbsp;joke&nbsp;about&nbsp;pyramids&nbsp;but&nbsp;it&nbsp;went&nbsp;over&nbsp;her&nbsp;head.&nbsp;Thankfully,&nbsp;it&nbsp;was&nbsp;not&nbsp;the&nbsp;last&nbsp;joke&nbsp;I&nbsp;got&nbsp;to&nbsp;make&nbsp;that&nbsp;went&nbsp;over&nbsp;her&nbsp;head!

First Meeting

April 1, 2022 Jerney: Alaina and I were driving around and I thought we were close to Josh and Jacob's apartment. Believing so, I asked Alaina if we could stop by their apartment so I could talk to Josh. Even though I was wrong about being nearby, she agreed to drive us there. We had barely settled into their apartment when Alaina sold me out saying, "She's been wanting to see you again, Josh." That must have broken the seal--Josh stopped being silent and started flirting. IT WORKED. I texted him that night and told him that he needed to ask me on a date. Plans were made for the following day. Josh: Me and my brother just got back from Five Guys (greatest place on Earth) and Jacob told me that Jerney and Alaina were going to swing by. I was nervous, but incredibly glad to get a second chance to see Jerney. I tried to talk and did ok at first, but things really took off when Alaina made some comment about how Jerney wanted to see me. After that, I got very comfortable and it ended with us exchanging numbers and setting up a first date for the next day!

Second Meeting

April 2, 2022 Jerney: I WAS SOOOOO NERVOUS. I called my aunt right before I arrived to Josh's apartment to tell her how nervous I felt. It was a perfect first date. We went to Chili's, watched the stars at an abandoned observatory, and got ice cream at Andy's. It was perfect for me. Josh: I remember being so nervous when Jerney was on her way to my apartment that I had to pee like 7 times while waiting. But thankfully she was very easy to be around. We went to Chilis first, where I discovered she likes to sit on the same side of the booth as me. That was funny and cute. Then we went to look at the stars on the hood of my car at a place that was secluded. It was magical, and the first moment I really started to feel something. Then we finished it off at Andy's for ice cream. It was an amazing first date!

First Date

April&nbsp;10,&nbsp;2022 Jerney:&nbsp;I&nbsp;had&nbsp;been&nbsp;dropping&nbsp;LOTS&nbsp;of&nbsp;hints.&nbsp;like,&nbsp;"Everyone&nbsp;wants&nbsp;to&nbsp;know&nbsp;if&nbsp;we're&nbsp;dating...&nbsp;Should&nbsp;I&nbsp;tell&nbsp;them&nbsp;you're&nbsp;my&nbsp;boyfriend&nbsp;or..?"&nbsp;I&nbsp;thought&nbsp;that&nbsp;was&nbsp;a&nbsp;pretty&nbsp;clear&nbsp;hint.&nbsp;He&nbsp;finally&nbsp;asked&nbsp;me&nbsp;out.&nbsp;It&nbsp;felt&nbsp;like&nbsp;I&nbsp;had&nbsp;been&nbsp;waiting&nbsp;forever! Josh:&nbsp;&nbsp;I&nbsp;actually&nbsp;thought&nbsp;we&nbsp;were&nbsp;already&nbsp;boyfriend&nbsp;and&nbsp;girlfriend,&nbsp;but&nbsp;Jerney&nbsp;asked&nbsp;me&nbsp;one&nbsp;night&nbsp;when&nbsp;we&nbsp;would&nbsp;make&nbsp;it&nbsp;official.&nbsp;She&nbsp;also&nbsp;told&nbsp;me&nbsp;to&nbsp;only&nbsp;ask&nbsp;in&nbsp;person.&nbsp;&nbsp;On&nbsp;April&nbsp;10,&nbsp;I&nbsp;finally&nbsp;asked&nbsp;her&nbsp;and&nbsp;she&nbsp;gleefully&nbsp;said&nbsp;yes!&nbsp;The&nbsp;rest&nbsp;is&nbsp;history.
