The Beginning

April 28, 2004~ My cousin Erin's 22nd birthday, we decided to go to Tripp's to celebrate. We had invited a few people, including the guys that Erin and I had been dating. Now these two guys were younger than us and they lived in Raleigh, needless to say we were stood up. I was very distraught over this, Erin was really unaffected, cause she had just started seeing her guy. Well one of the other guys that she had invited was this guy Chris who worked at the Nextel booth. He called asking if he could bring a friend, well of course that was okay. It was pretty sad anyway just her and I sitting there alone on her birthday. Turns out that his friend was also his boss at the carousel, Chris was the same one who let Erin, I and my niece ride a month or so prior to us meeting. So they showed up, and it turned out to be a pretty good time. Chris noticed that I was clearly upset over being stood up, so he sat with me at the bar and we talked, I know we sat in there the majority of the evening. I walked out of that restaurant that evening on the verge of love, and I knew it.


Just for the record, later I did find out that on the way to Tripp's that evening, Chris told Chad that he didn't care if he went for the other one, but the tall dark headed girl (Erin)was hands off.


Through out the course of the next few weeks Erin and I had taken a few trips to the beach(we were total beach bums that summer) but on the long road trips she would call Chris to talk, but it would always end up being him and I talking for hours at a time.

May 05, 2004~ We had our very first kiss in FUBAR ( The club Chris played at when we met)

May 11, 2004~ at 3:33pm Chris asked me to be his girlfriend ( He was so nervous!)

June 3, 2004~ at 1:11am Chris professed his love for me. We have been head over heels for each other since...
