All Because Two People Fell In Love...
Rick and I met on April 24, 2003. I had been at church the month before and Mary Lu Odom stoped me and said, "There is someone I want you to meet when you come home from school for the summer." I said, "Uh, ok." So when I got home for the summer, Mary Lu brought Rick to church. We talked and planned to go to the "drive in" movie at church that night and out for ice cream. When I got home that afternoon, I called Anna and told her that I found the guy I was going to marry! :o)
So we started dating, I went back to Flagler that fall and decided to come home for good that spring. There were some things happening (Aunt Karen, wanting to be at home, etc) that I wanted to be close to home for.
We continued to date and on Chirstmas Eve 2006 Rick asked me to marry him. He had talked to my parents the week before and everyone was there... My mom and dad, his mom, Gram, Vicky, Del, Bethy, Ms Dottie, Aunt Karen, Uncle Bob, Kevin, Chelsea. It was a great night! We were so excited!!
So we set the date for April 21, 2007. It was as close as we could get to the date that we met. During the time between getting engaged and getting married we lost Aunt Karen and Ms Dottie. It was a sad time, but I am glad that they were there for the engagement. They both mean a lot to us!
So April 21, 2007 we got married and moved into our condo in Pembroke Pines. We honeymooned in Las Vegas and it was a blast! We planned to travel a lot in the next few years. We traveled to Alaska in the summer of 2008 and to the Carribean in Feb of 2009. Both were great trips! We had planned on traveling a little more, but to our surprise we found out we were expecting in May 2009! :o)
