...that Matthew and I went out on our first date. Sometimes it seems like a long time ago, but at other times not. I suppose a lot has happened since that Friday evening, when we sat at John Thurman Fields in Modesto California,with my best friend Penny and her husband Todd, waiting to see Bryan Adams whilst Matthew explained what a 'doug out' was.
That evening he came to pick me up and my hair was still in rollers (attractive), when we headed out to the concert he opened the door of his truck for me, and Penny called it, perhaps she knew before I did, what was about to happen. It was on that first date that our lives together began.
So, five years later, we have four years of marriage behind us, have moved to a new state and are blessed with a beautiful daughter, life is great. Always easy? Of course not, but worth every second. I love this man more than words can express and am grateful to be his eternal companion.

Thank heavens for that Bryan Adams concert! I think many people had you two paired off long before you did! Yipeee!!
Yes, I have to say that I did call it- Todd is my witness. That was such a fun night. I was watching American Idol a couple of weeks ago and a few of the people sang Bryan Adams songs, and I totally thought about that night. Well, Happy Anniversary you two- we love ya!
