When I knew.

Ten years ago today is the day I fell in love with Ryan Parker my other half. On this day every year I always think about our first Valentines because it was truly the day I fell in love with this man. So let me share a little story of why I was swept off my feet by this amazing man.

We had just started dating about two weeks when Valentines was coming around and of course we were feeling the pressure of where were we in this relationship, do we do gifts, make plans, make- out all night:) (haha) it was all still new. Well Ryan took action and decided to make all the plans for the special day. I was really excited to be going out with him because at this point I was already crazy about him, having it all be so new and different this time I just knew this "one" was special. I remember I had to work and I got off work a little late, so I was rushing to get home and be all ready (couldn't exactly wear my scrubs). He looked so cute and a little nervous:) (Don't worry this was not when he proposed, that was the next day.J/K we just started dating people). So he takes me in his car and blindfold's me. We drove around, which seemed like hours, but finally arrived at our destination. He come around and got me out of the car, takes my hand and start walking and I could hear music playing. I'm thinking maybe we are going dancing(which I loved to do) but right then we stop he takes my hand and the blindfold off and there was this.....



Ryan had decorated his little garage with string lights, hearts on the wall, music playing and then in the center of it all a table set for two with candles and dinner. Home made lasagna, rolls, salad and dessert. It was so yummy but the fact that he went to all this just to make it a special night met the world to me. It was a perfect night and right then I knew....he was it for me!! Now to think that was TEN years ago just blows my mind. What a journey we have been on but I knew what I know now....I love this man. Happy Valentines day babe!!!
