Our Love Story: Q & A
I saw this
little quiz on Blue Eyed Bride's page
from Mrs to
Mama and thought it looked like fun!
1. How long have you and your significant other been together? We started dating on January 1, 2004 so we have been together for 8 years.
2. How did you meet? {What’s your “love” story?} We met in October of 2000 while both on FFA trips for our schools. His school was an hour from ours in Illinois, but we met at the National Convention because we were staying at the same hotel. We met the first night we were there and basically just hung out as friends and exchanged e-mail addresses and began chatting online. Yes, chatting, when that was popular :)

7. Tell us how he proposed?
We went to a Chicago Cubs game, my first one ever. Before the game I was asking him where my jersey was, because I knew he had gotten me a jersey to wear. At first he told me that he forgot it at home, but then I asked again, and he said let me look at see if I have it. He went to his cousins backpack and pulled out the jersey. I went to put it on and he said wait I think I left the tags on it. So I pulled the tags off and went to put it on again. He said wait it looks like there is something on the back you might want to look. So, I unfolded it and look at the back and realized it said "Mrs. Iverson"!!! I was in shock. At that point he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him!

Is he a flowers and teddy bear kind of guy for v-day, or strawberries,
champagne, and rose petals?
Neither, we don't celebrate Valentine's day really. It's just another day to us.
