Story
We both found ourselves at Hampton days on a nice, warm day in September. He spent the night playing pool with my mom, sister, and a buddy of his. My mom and sister still can't believe how many drinks were bought for them! I spent most of the night talking to my other Hampton friends, but at the end of the night I invited him to come and watch the Vikings game at the bar the next day.
His buddy made a bet that a teacher wouldn't go to a second bar on a Sunday (school night) and I never lose a bet. Jeff drove me to the second bar and we got to spend some time together because his buddy never showed up. I asked for Jeff's number when we got back to town, we went on a date the next weekend, and we've been inseparable ever since!
Tidbits
What was your most memorable date?
Taking our Ranger down to the trails in Chatfield, stopping at a small town bar for lunch, and spending the whole day together.
What's your favorite activity together?
We love to take our Ranger to our closest nature areas for hikes. I call them walks so I can get Jeff to enjoy them too!
Where are you going for your honeymoon?
We are heading to Madeira which is an island off the coast of Portugal. It is supposed to be the Hawaii of Europe!
What's the most memorable trip you have taken together?
We traveled to Mexico the winter after we'd been dating for a year. It was wonderful to realize we could travel at the same pace and enjoy a vacation together.
