How I met my love!


I'm teaming up with Mama M. a few times this week (when I have time) to post about my special Valentine.  My hubby and our life together.  Should I first mention that we forgot our 4 year anniversary last summer.  I mean that's just how our lives go.  Luckily we did remember number 5 and I'm pretty sure we'll remember number 6 this summer!  Anyway on to the question...

How did you meet the love of your life...

On band tour (did you laugh?  sometimes I do.).  Yep, we met in college our freshman year.  I started second semester and we were both in band.  We had band tour that year during spring break to, New Orleans.  Who thought it was a good idea to send a bunch of college students to NOLA?  I have no idea, but I remember meeting future Hubby and thinking he was kind of a nice guy.  Laid back, not crazy (hey let's admit it, some band people are crazy), and didn't mind if I tagged along with his group since I didn't know many people yet.  We hung out together a lot toward the end of the semester.  Our first "date" was watching baseball on TV in the dorm.  Luckily we both love baseball and I've come around and am now a big Cardinals fan.  He's lucky I kept him around after I asked for help with my religion paper in New Testament.  The smartie pants religion major read through my paper and then asked "when is this due?"  I don't know, next week.  He then replied "do you have time to start over?"  WHAT?  And I married you?

That summer we officially started dating on my birthday and this summer we will have been together 9 years, married 6, and have a 3 year old and a 4 month old.  Together we have lived in 3 states and moved 4 times, once with a 6 week old baby.  I still love him even if he did make me write that paper over (and I did get an A on that paper by the way, but let's not remind him of that).
