Tevin and Chris's story begins in October of 2017 with Tevin getting lost searching for Chris in Knoxville, Chris leading Tevin astray on a dark path , and view from the rooftop of Neyland Stadium - that was just the first date! They spent the next few months exploring Knoxville together, meeting friends and family, and making some of their most cherished memories.

After dating for 6 months, Chris and Tevin were forced to make some tough decisions. Chris was moving back to Texas for medical school, and Tevin was moving back home to Georgia. The pair was unsure of what the future held for them, but decided to try having a long distance relationship. For about 3 months, there were many phone calls and text messages, but it was clear that Tevin and Chris were struggling being apart from each other. In September of 2018, Tevin made a life changing decision, and moved from Atlanta to San Antonio for a fresh start and to see where things could go with Chris.

The decision to move worked in their favor. Tevin started his career as a teacher in San Antonio, and Chris was excelling as a medical student. Life in San Antonio consisted of brewery hopping, game nights, friendsgivings, and many trips to Austin, Tx. to visit Chris's family. Things for the two just made sense. Their relationship flourished so much that Tevin decided to propose to Chris at The Pearl in San Antonio. Chris said, "Yes!", of course. 2021 was a year to remember for Chris and Tevin.

Although things were going great, the destination of Chris's residency loomed over their heads. Match day arrives and emotions are high. Learning where Chris matched would change their lives forever. The results were in, and Chris announces that he will be a Orthopaedic resident in El Paso, Tx. The news was bittersweet. The excitement for the next chapter was evident, but saying goodbye to friends and San Antonio was incredibly hard.

Luckily, adjusting to El Paso has been easier than anticipated. They bought their first home together which has a backyard view that will never get old. Chris couldn't have been matched with a better group of co-residents, and Tevin has found his way teaching 7th grade reading. Tevin and Chris are ecstatic about what the future holds for them and their marriage.
