Emily & Aaron in Bertram, TX

When Emily Jordan decided to spend a year of college abroad, she didn't know when she'd see her friend Aaron Vixie again. It turns out that Aaron emailed me almost every day, which ended up being four months instead of the entire year, Emily explains of her abbreviated stay in France due to the events of September 11, 2001. Once Emily returned, Aaron confessed he wanted their friendship to be something more. The two soon became inseparable -- and later, engaged.
