nine years ago today i went on a blind date with this guy!
this was a TRUE blind date...which i think don't really exist anymore because you can basically look anyone up on facebook or blogs these days. back then we really had no idea what to expect.
i was talking to my best friend on the phone when he showed up and i remember telling her how hot he was. (; his car smelled like peach air fresheners and it was nice and clean...i'm sure he cleaned it especially for our date.
he took me to jaker's for dinner, a REALLY nice restaurant in idaho falls. then we drove to rexburg and attended a basketball game that his roommates were playing in. i left to go to the bathroom and almost never made it back in because i couldn't find my ticket.
he wanted to take me ice skating in rigby, but it was closed. so we drove back to idaho falls and went bowling instead.
i remember the date going by so fast, but we must have been out quite awhile. it was like neither one of us wanted it to end!
this picture was taken just about a month later...days before he was moving to ohio for the summer to sell alarm systems. i flew out to ohio in july and he proposed to me. four months later we were married!
what a difference a day makes! love you kevin!
