when dh and i met i was waitressing at a restaurant and he was just being hired...he swears to this day i hit on him but i was just introducing myself to get a better look cuz i thought he was cute..we talked for about a year - nothing serious, then i got promoted to manager and had to move to london, ont and told him if he wanted to be with me he was more than welcome to come but i wouldn't do the long distance thing - heard too many horror stories. i guess we both didn't let on our feelings as much as we should have until that point but he hummed and hawed for a couple days then said sure. he ended up working in the same restaurant (again) and i was his boss for 4 years while we lived together (baaaad news...surprised we made it this far..). he always said he'd never get married but i knew he's wear down eventually. my uncle had the whole family go to vegas for his wedding oct 6/04. we were there two days and dh asked me to marry him and we got married the day after - oct7/04...and alecksandria was the absolute best thing that we brought home from vegas!!..she was conceived oct 8/04...not on our wedding day b/c my sweet brother fell asleep in our room..but that's another story in itself. anyway we've been together for almost 7yrs and married for a year and a bit...sorry long story!
