It all began as a job. Dale Earnhardt Jr. met his wife Amy Reimann after he hired her interior design company to renovate his home in North Carolina.

The married couple also clicked a couple of selfies together, and both looked happier than ever in each other’s company.

The anniversary celebrations ended with the start of the new year, with fireworks being seen in Amy Earnhardt’s Instagram post.
