10 Years Ago Today....

I met my future husband. I remember vividly the night my friend Julie and I went over to his mom's house on a Friday night after we had just gone to Olive Garden to celebrate her birthday (a day early). Julie grew up across the street from Bob and has known him her whole life. He pried himself away from some geeky computer game and came out and talked to us for hours. I was so impressed that he stood in the doorway near me almost the whole time. I of course later found out it was because he had a big hole in his shorts and was too embarrassed to walk by us. When we were leaving I caught a glimpse of his tattoo on his leg and asked what it was. The only word I caught was Mickey and thought it was fate that he would have Mickey Mouse on his leg and I was such a Disney freak! I walked out of the house, turned to Julie and said "I am going to marry that man." Well the tattoo isn't Mickey Mouse it is the Mickey's bee from Mickey's Malt Liquor so I guess it wasn't fate after all, but I love him anyway.

If he was able to pry himself away from a computer game - it MUST have been love at first sight! :)

Happy Belated Anniversary!
