Lets lighten things up....
In honor of the newer members (the real newlyweds, if you will):
When did you know DH was "the one" (and Cayla - I know you're not married but you said things are better than ever with Scott, so lets hear it!)? Did he do something special? Were you somewhere special? Spill it!
Re: Lets lighten things up....
Don't we all love love stories
I knew DD had marriage potential when he threw a snowball at a mailbox maybe 75 feet (I really have no idea, but it's a long driveway, so 75 sounds possible) away and hit it right on. It's a good skill to be able to teach future children. Yep, it sounds crazy
The time that I knew he WAS the one- he "borrowed" a wheelchair from the ER when my stepdad was being flown to a Boston hospital and my mom would need a wheelchair to get around. Then he drove my mom and I into Boston faster than possible, got us all set up in a hotel, and came back each day for the next 3.
Two Times:
My sister was in a car accident a couple months after we had started dating and the first time we saw her afterwards - he knew I was nervous about it. He gave her a big hug and told her he was so worried about her and was so glad to see her doing alright. It was so sincere and I knew he really meant it. He was always really great and fit into my crazy family so well
Then a few months later
Hubs had always talked about moving back to MD or away from Boston. I always told him, 100 miles from Fenway was as far as I would go, he would make a big deal of it and make fun of me for it, but hey when there's a place that you love that you connect to your friends and family - it's hard to imagine being far from it. We were on Yawkey Way enjoying a beer and listening the the music and the people and he was holding my hand and said "I think anywhere within 100 miles from here is a good place to be with you"
So I knew that we'd always be together from that point on.
lol! Well.... a background Scott and I went on one date after he graduated, the end of my freshman year, and he begged and begged to take me out- and I finally gave in. After that date I thought he was the biggest dork, and actually laughed when my mom asked me if I would ever see him again. Three years later I was moving to Fl and we started talking again! And I always say... well and now we're here!
He would kill me for saying this! The moment for me was when I was visiting from FL, and Scott brought me back to the airport and he cried the whole ride. Also the way Scott fell in love with my mom and brothers. He calls her all on his own and checks in on her. He's fabulous:-) We have been through a lot, but we have grown and our relationship has evolved into something I never knew could happen!
i met my husband at a party- his best friend asked me out & i said no because i was more interested in (my husband)
i knew after the first date- i came home & told my friends i was going to marry him. and i did.
look at the birds | bless this food
I wouldn't have admitted it then but shortly after we met we went on a 5 week mission trip to Kenya. When we got there we had an 8 hour bus ride from the airport. We ended up sitting next to each other and talked the entire time! We got to know each other so well and realized we had so much in common. He was so sweet and somewhere inside I just knew.

Bill and I were friends for about 4 months when my birthday came around. I told everyone I knew I was going out to this bar, including his friend Derek who I was a better friend with at the time. Bill stood outside in line for 30min (in January!!!) and Derek didn't! I knew then that maybe Bill liked me. We were "just friends" who cuddled and hugged and talked on the phone for hours for another 3 months before we both admitted maybe it was something more. 7.5 years later we are still best friends!
When I first met DH I was 15, and I am not kidding when I tell you he had this glow around him. I seriously was in love at first sight... but of course for a 15 year old that love is a little bit different than the love I we share now!
Fast forward 4 years later when we went on our first trip alone together to Niagra Falls. After that trip I knew he was the one for me! We had such a great time and continued to grow closer as time went on and well... here we are having the time of our lives!
