Stories & Memories

**Your relationship story**

I’m from small town southern Indiana. Called Wadesville, Indiana (Posey county). Nothing but corn, wheat, and bean fields.

She is from the city of Evansville, Indiana Defiantly not country.

Met online. 1st date was at Old Chicago. The restaurant is closed now. Moved in with each other very fast. She left the city and moved in with me out in the country which she never experienced and LOVES now.

I was in the police academy when we met, she was a social worker at a clinic working with adults which she didn’t like.

Now I’m a cop and she works her dream job in a school with kids as a social worker.

We got married on the family farm in an old barn on June 17th 2017. This year will be our 5 year anniversary.

**Other stories or memories**

Before we had kids we traveled a lot and went to concerts. Been to Jamaica, Mexico, a cruise to the Caribbean, the Bahamas, St. Louis every other year for the zoo, and Florida. Recently went to Vegas on our first vacation since we had kids (alone).

Now we have twin daughters (Elsie and McKinley) that are 2 and a half years old and turn 3 in October.

They love being outside and love animals. Especially cows.

They were born premature and were in the NICU which was super hard on us. Now they are healthy, beautiful, and the world to us.

Bought 14 acres 2 years ago next to the family farm and have been saving money to build our dream home.

Hope to start building soon.
