My friend Melissa tagged me and asked me to share the story of how Kelly and I met. Even though she was there for a good portion of it. I guess its a good chance for me to reminisce and write down what I still remember. Here I go.
Kelly and I first met while working at Kenny Rogers Roasters. I was 17 and he was 15. It sounds bad but I'm only a year and half older than him. I was the first one to work there and then all of Kelly's friends started to work there. Apparently I was a looker back then, if you look at pictures you would never know it. Kelly's friends told him that he had to come in and see me. Kelly came in and applied for a job and took a gander. "She's not even cute" he said, of course being typical Kelly and trying to act cool. Really he thought I was a hottie. I thought he was pretty cute and I loved the way he walked. Haha. I was young. After only a few weeks of working there we all became good friends and started hanging out all the time. I would probably say those were some of the funnest times of my life. Oh to be 17 and not have a care in the world. It only took a few weeks of hanging out for Kelly and I to completely fall for each other. He got a hard time from his friends and so did I. I was taking Kelly away from them. Not an easy battle for either of us, but we remained inseparable. That was 13 years ago. We dated for about 3 1/2 years and then broke up for two, it was the hardest time of my life and the best thing we could have done. Its hard finding the person your going to marry at the ages of 15 and 17. We both needed time to grow up a little and figure out what we wanted. Luckily it was each other. I remember the night we ran into each other after our long break up. It was oddly enough at Club Omni, lamest club ever and I never went there. My friends came in and told they were going and invited me to come along. I really didn't want to go and I told them it was specifically because I didn't want to run into Kelly. I went anyways and low and behold Kelly was there. I was definitely scared. He was so sweet and was looking for me everywhere so we could talk and hang out. Lucky for him my friends thought his friends were cute so they called him later that night. They all came over and hung out. That night Kelly and I realized how much we had missed each other. Still a little cautious I kept my distance from him. My friends and I decided we were going to Vegas the following weekend. I told Kelly we were going and if he and his friends wanted to meet us there that would be cool. Apparently none of his friends had money to go but Kelly wanted to go so bad he offered to pay for the trip. Good thing he did. It was a big turning point in our relationship and not even a year later we were engaged to be married.
Kelly and I have completely grown up together. He has been my best friend for 13 years and I love every minute I have with him. Just like every relationship we've gone through our ups and downs but we know there is nothing that we can't get through together.
Enjoy the blast from the past.

Look I even played foot ball with Kelly. Also, not very good at it.
Kelly was pretty proud of the fire he built.
I love you Kelly and I had the best time with you this weekend. I hope you had a wonderful 29th birthday!!!
