OUR ADDRESS
We have known each other since we were children. We grew up in the same neighborhood and went all through school together. Terry was my first date in high school – but it ended there. We both graduated and went our separate ways. That was in 1983.
In 2010, by chance, we met again through a mutual friend. It was love at first (ok, maybe not first) but after 27 years, first sight.
We realized that we were a perfect fit. I had two children, a boy and a girl and he had two children, two boys. They loved each other and we formed our new family. We were engaged 1 year to the date that we met again and were married 3 months later.
We are so blessed to have found one another again, and can’t believe that after all these years, we could find such happiness. This all began on March 12, 2010 or….3/12.We wish everyone all of the love and joy that we have found. Although we, of course, celebrate our wedding anniversary – Our 3/12 Anniversary will always be the start of it all.
