You know how they say....when you know, you know? I never believed that. Not ever. ...And then I met Austin. We met through pure luck (or fate), and it was truly love at first sight. He was installing DirecTV for my neighbor, all scrungy and dirty too, and I had the day off. I happened to be outside at just the right moment and wham! Our eyes met. Sparks flew, electricity crackled....all the things that happen in sappy romantic comedies. Both of us just kind of stared at each other in shock...it was like we'd met before and couldn't figure out the where and when. He had the lamest pickup line ever too! "Got a boyfriend?" My answer? "Nope!" He asked for my number on the spot and a week later we had our first date. That first week before our date we talked on the phone every night. For hours. Like teenagers. It was glorious. I knew I would marry him the night we went shopping for our first Halloween together...he put on this ridiculous mask and started dancing to Shania Twain in the middle of the costume store. This man was unbelievably handsome, could engage in excellent conversation, AND make me belly laugh at his own expense? That's a keeper. And here we are, sooner than I would've believed, about to walk down the aisle. Sometimes I think I must be dreaming, but I don't want to wake up! I've never been so in love in my life. He truly is my other half, my soulmate, and my best friend. I feel like the luckiest girl on the planet that I get to marry him! |
