Well, guess it is time for my weekly post and what better day to do it than the anniversary of mine and Brandon's first date!!! Yes, our first date was on halloween of 03. It is so funny to look back! We went to the BEHS championship game--where it snowed and I was very not prepared! I froze!! Brandon's dad and friend nate came with us. I didn't dare say how cold I was because I knew Brandon wanted to stay. I ended up sharing a blanket with Nate for some reason and finally Brandon gave me his gloves. Brandon's dad thought I was on a date with Nate! :) I kept waiting for Brandon to scoot closer to me to keep me warm or somethin, but he didn't! We had some hot chocolate and went back up to Logan where we went to Ruby Tuesday and ate with a bunch of people and then went to my apt and watched a scary show. Brandon wouldn't even get close to me.. I think towards the end, he finally put his hand on my leg. I thought.. Okay.. no first kiss for a long time, but surprise.. on date #3 he kissed me! He won't admit to this day that he initiated it, but I promise.. it was all him! :)
I was nervous about dating someone from work in case it didn't work out, but I really liked him, so decided that it would be okay. We kept it from people at work for like a month! I even remember hiding in the corner at his apartment when his sister came over!! I am not quite sure why! :) How dumb!
We didn't talk for a couple days after our first date. I was over at my friends apt a couple nights later (in the same complex) and got brave and went to talk to him. He wasn't there.. so I left a note and he called me and we pretty much were inseperable after that! :) Weird thing.. he lived in the same apartment that Steph lived in our freshman year and I spent so much time there that year (when steph lived there) and the year that we were dating. I think i was at that apartment the MOST of any other apartment I ever lived in!
We ususally like to go out and celebrate, but Brandon has a presentation he has to do for tomorrow. If he gets it done we might go out or just carve some pumpkins.
I went visiting teaching last night and found out that one of the girls I go to, her and her husband's first date was on halloween, engaged in feb and married in june.. all one year later than ours! That is so crazy!
It was all worth it and I am so glad that Brandon asked me out 4 years ago. I can't imagine my life without him!! We are so happy and love each other more than anything! Brandon is my best friend and I love so many things about him! We are very grateful to have wonderful friends and family that support us in all that we do! We are extremely grateful for the gospel and how it has helped to strengthen our relationship as well. Okay.. I am stopping before it sounds like a testimony! :)
I will try to post a fe pictures of us when we were dating later tonight.. I am on my work computer right now and can't.

That is a cute story. I didn't know that Brandon lived in my apartment!! That is awesome. I guess it's just where all of your favorite people live! :)
I can't believe that it has been 4 years. Congrats!
