We like to say our story began in 2012. What seemed like one degree of separation was not aligned until the Lord, in His divine timing, willed it. Pictured are two kids, with their families, unknowing that their first picture "together" would be at a wedding and 11 years later, they would be taking a picture together at their own. Connor, Sophomore at Samford, standing with his family. Kelley, 8th grade at Whitefield Academy, standing with hers. Legend has it Elyse and Kelley are in conversation in this photo...

Years later and after a couple of nudges (thank you Caroline & Steve), the two met for a drink at Yeppa & Co.. Kelley (obviously nervous) and Connor finally met.

... and started dating....

.... and are joyfully engaged!!!!
