Who Knew!

October 7th is a special day...5 years ago today my sweet husband asked me to be his girlfriend! We had met through one of my best friends, and been dating for a couple of months.

We went on a date to a Tech Symphony Orchestra performance and then to share hot chocolate at DayBreak Coffee Shop! Sitting outside we talked for a good while and then it went dead silent...hehe! I could tell what was about to happen...Or so I thought/hoped! I don't remember the exact words, but I do remember how sweet and cute he was when he was so nervous!

Another funny note about that night, apparently I was a little apprehensive as well, because I was playing with my necklace and the chain snapped...LOL! Jason still likes to tease me about that.



Anyways, I said yes, and then yes again a few years later :-) and here we are!
Throughout the years we celebrated our dating "anniversary." Each year we went back to Daybreak to share hot chocolate!

One year later, Sophomore year...Jason planned a candlelight picnic in the park and then we danced under the stars to a song he wrote for our first Valentine's Day...I was hooked!

Junior Year...Dinner at Stella's


Senior Year, Dinner at Cafe J

Sadly I don't recall what exactly we did last year, I was in the middle of survival mode during my first year of teaching! I do think we might have gotten some hot chocolate though...

So tonight, I am having dinner with Jason's family and then headed to Starbuck's for some hot chocolate with my sweet husband! It won't be the same as Daybreak, but a close second!
