How it all began
“The first time I met Emma, I came downstairs with a haircut that had been cut way too short and brand-new soccer referee gear on, looking like I was headed to ref a JV game, not meet the girl I’d end up marrying. Then I saw Emma sitting in my La-Z-Boy chair in blue leggings I still remember to this day, and I was instantly into her. I couldn’t wait to get back and talk to her. Whether those poor JV kids got a properly officiated game that day is still up for debate.”

“Marcus was dressed like a soccer referee coming down the stairs, short shorts, high black socks, the whole thing. As I unknowingly sat in his chair, I couldn’t help but notice how tall, charming and handsome he was. I don’t think either of us knew it then, but that random moment would end with me marrying the guy coming down the stairs dressed for kickoff.”
