2015: The Summer of Love

How it started…

Reagan and Austin officially met in 2015 at Ball High School, but God had been weaving their paths together long before then. They shared mutual friends, played in the same sports leagues, attended the same church, and even lived in the same apartment complex after Hurricane Ike, yet their paths did not truly cross until a high school bonfire that summer.

Their first date came a few months later at Sonic, where Reagan managed to spill her entire blue slushy on Austin’s cloth car seats. Her clumsiness, to this day, remains one of Austin’s favorite things about her. From that moment on, they quickly became best friends and officially began dating in the fall of 2015.

Austin graduated from Ball in 2017 and headed to the University of Texas at Austin. Reagan joined him the following year, and together they built lifelong friendships and made countless memories.

After graduating from UT, Austin moved to Houston for work. Reagan stayed in Austin to finish her final year at UT before moving to Waco for law school.

And the rest is history!

Austin surprised Reagan with a beautiful proposal almost 10 years later in a spot where they’ve taken countless walks together. After four years of long distance, the two are finally back in the same town and ready to make Galveston Island their forever home.
