In a bold act to make their childhood dreams a reality, a pair of high school sweethearts from North Central Texas bought three acres on the outskirts of Fort Worth and are now making a go at homestead life.

Haris and Jackie (who wished to use only their first names for this article due to privacy concerns) first met in middle school, but the spark of attraction ignited when they attended his soccer game in high school. She was cold. He lent her his letterman jacket and bought her a hot chocolate. From that point on, they saw each other as more than just friends.
