If you were to guess where they met, you'd never think it would be a bar. However, in 2015 John and Leigh Ann met at Whiskey Dix in Murfreesboro, TN. That night they exchanged numbers and then Leigh Ann never heard from him. A couple months later John's brother was dating a friend of Leigh Ann's and their paths crossed again. From that point on there was no turning back.

To make it simple, life hit hard and harder in 2018 and they separated. Over the next 4 1/2 years they each grew and lived separate lives. In 2023 John reached out. Leigh Ann had messaged him a year prior because a piece of mail kept coming to her house and he didn't see that message until a year later, almost to the day. He asked how she had been and the conversation led to him asking if they could go to church together. He had no idea, but Leigh Ann decided that year that her relationship with God was going to take priority and she had prayed that the next man to come into her life would be a man she could continue to grow in Christ with.

As in any relationship there have been highs, lows, in-betweens, bright days, and some darker days. But in every day they chose to grow together, talk through what life is throwing at them, and work through it all. They are thankful to take this next step in marriage and to continue to grow in a union where God is the center and their strongest common ground.
