Welcome to our Love Story

I decided to start a blog to follow the journey that the love of my life, Jer, and I are currently on. We met roughly two years ago during a summer internship. Jer was the handsome employee and I was the intern. After a few flirty emails and after work phone calls, we decided to hit the town together. What happened next is what Jer likes to refer to as, "the kind of fireworks that people wait their whole life to experience," and he's right.



After our first few dates we became inseperable. Football games, wine tastings, concerts - you name it, Jer and I were there together. The work day seemed to last longer and longer everyday, and we both were looking forward to the five o'clock whistle when we could see each other again.


Finally, it was time for the next step - moving in together!! After 10 amazing months of dating, we decided to give co-habitation a try. The honest truth is that the first month was difficult - but we both knew there was no one else we'd rather be with and that was what was important. So, we decided it was time for the NEXT step - getting the most adorable dog ever!!! (fooled you!)




I knew that Jer was the one almost as soon as we started dating. He makes me laugh, knows my likes (AND dislikes - which is sometimes more important), he's my best friend, he listens, he's the most gorgeous man I've ever met (inside and out), he takes care of my when I'm sick and most importantly, he is my better half - the only person in the world that I can spend forever with.


So, you can understand why after living with each other for almost a year, I was more than ready to have him ask me to marry him. And finally, on May 2, 2008, all of my dreams came true.
