As JJ and Devin grew closer, their bond grew over laughter, spending time with each other's families, and bonding over the parallels of their lives, both coming from small towns less than an hour away from each other.

JJ is from Lockney, TX, and Devin is from New Deal, TX, and while the two were growing up, the schools competed against each other in every extracurricular activity. With both JJ and Devin being involved within clubs and teams at their respective schools, JJ and Devin's paths crossed before ever saying a word to each other.

Later on in adulthood, JJ's friendship being with Jonathan Rodriguez meant he was spending lots of time with Maegan (Cantu) Rodriguez, Devin's close friend. As many times as the two spent time with the Rodriguezes, it wasn't until the night of their wedding when JJ and Devin finally met and the rest is history.
