Lee and Jade met through the Viking Vanguard Band while at Airline HS. They sat a few seats away from each other since Jade played the Alto Saxophone and Lee played the French Horn. There were months of ‘talking’ and playing 20 questions, which was more like 1,000 and Jade thinking that was a fun way to get to know each other. They made it official on Saturday November 6, 2010 at the Northwestern Band Competition.

They decided to go to the same college after High School and ended up at the University of Louisiana at Monroe. Jade graduated with a BS in Health Studies, and Lee graduated with a BA in Political Science and a MA in Public Administraion. Lee is now in his first year of Law School at the University of Loyola of New Orleans.

On June 4, 2020 we went to pick up our little ball of sass, Luna! She is a black and white fluffy corgi and was Jade’s graduation present from Lee. Luna is our sass queen, but she will do anything for food and attention. Luna’s favorite things are her morning cuddles with Lee and playing with her squeaky toys. On May 8, 2021 we drove down to pick up pup number two, Lexa! She is a red merle mini aussie with bright blue eyes that look ghostly white. Jade got her for Lee when he graduated from his masters program. Lexa is a ball of energy, a bit on the shy side, and super sweet. Lexa’s favorite things are her cuddles with Jade, chewing a bone in someone’s lap, and messing with Luna.
