John and I met and went on our first date twelve years ago today!!! It was a blind date lined up by my soon to be brother-in-law. John treated me to a fancy dinner at the "Golden Corral." On the way to the restaurant John was so nervous he wouldn't stop talking. He still won't stop talking to this day! We then went to the park and flew glow in the dark kites and then went back to my brother-in-laws house and made homemade rootbeer. We actually realized we liked each other when we went out and sat on the trampoline together and talked like we had know each other for years. Our date ended by watching Joe vs the Volcano. When John dropped me off at my front door he asked if he could see me again. My reply was " I'm gona see you tomorrow." We had already planned on going hiking up Farmington canyon. I knew after that date that I wanted to marry him. He was so nice and interested in everything about me. He even liked me despite my ugly braces I was still sporting. I hope he reads this and gets the hint that I would like to go on a date tonight to celebrate!
I am only glad I did not know John when he looked like this. I think I would have run the other way!!! Notice the purple Fresh Jive Pants. Classy John!
This is John looking G.Q. right after his mission. I think he still has that suit!
