How we came to be...






It seems like I have been asked a lot lately how Brian and I came to be. Well, there is no short and sweet story. Brian and I met years ago (like 15) through mutual friends. I use to come home from college (single and wanting to stay single) and each New Years we would party with the same mutual friends. According to Brian there were many times which he asked for my number and was trying to "hit" on me, but between the alcohol and the freedom of enjoying my college years I didn't give it much thought. Supposedly, I would use lines like "I don't have a phone", or "I will give it to you next time I see you", "Can't remember my phone number". And the thing that really torked Brian was I told him to "go pound sand" (that is what he recalls, I don't remember it so much). Years went by and I thought he was the funniest guy but of course "just a friend". I dated his friend and he dated mine and at the same time it was him and I who always hung out and talked for hours about life. He is and was absolutely hysterical and I laughed my way into "falling" into love with him! : -) After about 6 years of telling my parents, Brian is "just a friend", I started realizing that maybe there was more to it. Still not wanting to give up my college LIFE (it was way too much fun!), I just pushed the thoughts back inside my head. Life took its turn one Christmas when he came home from Arizona to visit me and the rest is history. We were married within 9 months and have led a FUN and ADVENTUROUS life as husband and wife for 8 + years. My husband is more than the man I have always dreamt about and he is MORE than I pictured him to be. He is the life of the party when we are out, but when we return home he is the most caring, loving, and positive person I know. Here are some pictures BEFORE we had a child (the "wild" side).
