… when we were in graphic arts class and you used to bring in Swedish fish for me
… Vincent acting like a “boneless chicken”
… that party we went to and how you got the “flu”
… jumping on the trampoline at Pat & Sean’s
… walking to classes together at CMU
… when Meri was 9 years old
… going to our school dances
… Sterling apartments
… coming to keep me company in Grand Rapids
… passing notes in the hallway
… our first kiss
… Tyler laughing in his bouncer
… knowing that we’d always be together… forever
Well today is the 4th wedding anniversary of Steve and I, so I thought I’d reminisce a bit on some memories and old pics.
While a Sophomorein high school I was taking a graphic arts class with my friend Cyndi, and all during class we would gush about this totally hot senior who was tall, dark, handsome and athletic. This hot boy had a friends who was skinny, with black high tops, and wore Nike shirts like everyday. That skinny kid started to grow on me, and the fact that he brought in Big Red gum and Swedish fish everyday may have helped a little. He was actually friends with a lot of my friends, we started to hand out more and he graciously drove me home in his super cool black Sunbird. So in the spring of 1998 we officially started “going out”. It’s been a crazy road ever since and eleven amazing years together, from high school and college to marriage and kids.
Here’s us in HS after a softball and baseball game… look how young we looked!


and in those great CMU days… fire up chips!
