One September day in 2019, I decided to take a trip out to Emory to grade some papers and lay out by my parents' pool. Little did I know, my life was going to change forever there. I arrived, wearing running shorts, a tank top, messy bun, and no makeup, thinking the only people I would run into were those who I had already known for several years. Then I was introduced to this tall, blue-eyed stranger and we fell in love...not really! He tried to get rid of me by asking all of his non-negotiable questions: do you like guns, do you like hunting, etc. I passed the test! We spent the next few weeks talking, went to the fair, went to dinner a few times, and on my birthday, we made it official, and the rest is history!
