10 Years Ago Today

Ten years ago today, I met my husband.
(I actually already knew who he was but we really never hung out, so I say today was the day we met!)

I met him at my friend Stefani's 21st birthday celebration at Mama's. (Remember girls? Underage drinking at its best!)

Fitz was a year older and really didn't hang out with our group. But he came with our friend Ray to the party. We hung out with the Sig Eps and their formal was just around the corner. I had been to the last 2 or 3 formals but hadn't been invited that year. Of course I really wanted to go because all my best friends would be there. I remember telling my friend Kim, "Fitz doesn't have a date, I'll get him to ask me!" It went something like that b/c I heard that he didn't have a date yet and he was a Senior and past President how could he not go, right?

Well he asked (a week or so later) I said yes and as they say the rest is history!

(Looking at the pic I realized it was semi-formal, duh, formal was in the Fall Semester!)
