It all started when they were 12 years old in 7th grade band.  Amber was first chair flute and Eric's goal was to be first chair clarinet so that he could sit behind Amber and play with her curly hair. :)  They shared many classes through high school but lost touch until their 10 year reunion.  Thanks to Facebook they were able to keep in touch throughout the years.
In August 2013 Eric drove out to Fate, Texas to attend a fundraiser poker tournament Amber's 3-Day team hosted and the rest is history.
