HOW WE MET: We went to middle school and high school together but
were introduced by some mutual friends our junior year of high school at
Floyd Central in 2010, when Michael was on the football team and Jamie
was on the volleyball team. Our first date was to Harvest Homecoming, and
the rest just fell into place from there. We dated all through high school and
college, when Michael went to Purdue University and Jamie attended the
University of Indianapolis. We then both pursued our doctorate degrees:
Michael obtaining his Doctorate of Pharmacy from Sullivan University,
and Jamie earned her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from the University of
Indianapolis this past May.
Our wedding was…a weekend we will always remember, thanks to
everyone who celebrated with us. From the rehearsal dinner at the Loft on
Spring to the picturesque rooftop at the Frazier History Museum. We were
surrounded by family and friends who had watched us grow over the last
nine years into the couple we are today. Although we worried about rain, the
clouds parted after a few sprinkles earlier in the afternoon for an absolutely
perfect outdoor wedding ceremony overlooking the Ohio River.
Marriage is…a new adventure with your best friend every day. We both
spent many years in different cities dating long distance, so getting to finally
live in the same city/house makes all the years leading up to this point worth
it. It’s falling more in love with the little things each and every day, learning
to enjoy the phase of life you are in right now, and overcoming each new
challenge together.
