A good ole Southern Preacher’s son meets a Jersey Peach with big dreams and even bigger thighs.
Keep reading for the rest of our happily ever after…
Ironically, this Jersey Peach was in the southern boy’s home town of Chattanooga for a bridal show. No…she wasn’t engaged. Jersey was one of the models (bridal gowns hide hips – if only they were affordable for everyday!). After the show, a group of Jersey’s friends were getting together for a little salsa dancing and that is when she laid eyes on the redneck boy. Of course she didn’t like him at first…no respectable Jersey girl likes anyone right at first. So after loudly announcing to her friends that he wasn’t her type, Jersey refused to talk or dance to the sweet Tennessee boy.
But this redneck was the pursuing type 🙂
Four weeks later they went on their first official date. Jersey threw up that morning. By the end of the day, she was gambling with his money and squeeling about his their her winnings.
Two weeks after that, the good ole Southern boy charmed a new employer and transplanted himself to the dirty south…Atlanta, Georgia. They laughed, they played, they bonded over greasy cheeseburgers. Then the girl realized something. Jersey realized that somehow that sweet southern boy had wormed his way into her heart…permanently. Soon after he knelt on one knee and promised that he would always keep her warm.
With nine months till their wedding, they purchased a white house on a hill and started some major renovations. By the time they got hitched, the house was no where close to move in ready. But Jersey didn’t care. That sweet southern boy carried her over the threshold in her gown and they spent the first night opening wedding gifts with the sexy smell of Steak n Shake wafting in the air. Jersey learned two things that night.
1. That Tennessee redneck would always be her boyfriend…no matter how married they got.
2. You can take the redneck outta the South, but there is no way to get that boy to unhand the cheesy steakburger.
