On this date, I went out of my comfort zone and went on a blind date.
We decided to meet up in a dog-walking park, to make sure our dogs got along. Jennifer brought her shitzu and I my chihuahua, they got along just fine. As we walked the park we talked and I felt like she was my best friend already. With father's day coming up on that weekend we decided to wait till the following weekend to go out again. Although that whole week, we spent night and day on the phone talking about everything.
When the weekend finally arrived, I couldn't wait to bring Jenn around to all my family, something just felt right about her. Well let's just say the days became night and the nights became days and I knew she was the one for me.
3 months into our relationship I asked Jennifer to marry me. Without hesitation she said "yes" and giggled and said "what took you so long?!".
Now we are 13 years fast-forwarding and we have 2 beautiful boys and are loving life. People always joke and say the stars were aligned the day we met, well they were. Then to find you guys, it was a no brainer. We needed to show everyone that comes to our house what happens when you are Under Lucky Stars.
Thanks for this opportunity to share our story and show us how our stars aligned the day and time we first set eyes on each other.
