11 Years Ago Today

11 years ago today, Stephen asked me to be his girlfried and we have been together ever since. We celebrated this day for 7 years before we got married and even though it's not our wedding anniversary, it's still a special day to me.

Stephen was working at Randalls and he called me to see if I would come see him on his break. It was late, probably around 9:30 or so. My parents said ok, but then my mom decided she would drive me (my parents are slightly over protective- which I now appreciate and will probably be the same way). When we got there, I went in to see him and he wanted to walk around the parking lot. As we were walking he "asked me out".

The first year we were dating, each month he would bring me roses on the 12th corresponding to how many months we had been going out. It was so sweet. He is not as romantic as he once was, but I love him with all my heart. I am so glad he asked me out that day and this day will always be special to me. It is a day to remember those two 16 year old kids who were falling in love.
