My Fairytale


Today Austin and I have been married for eight years. Time just really flies when your having fun:) That makes 13 years that we have been together we started dating in eighth grade, never broke up through high school, then married the Jan after we graduated. Let me just tell you my fairytale..... In the sixth grade we heard of a new kid in school, so at recess I decide to scope him out. Hot, sweaty, butterflies, is what I felt when I first laid eyes on AUSTIN BRACKIN. To my disapointment I found out my best friend Camille had got to him first. Patiently waiting for them to break up I never let anyone know about my secret CRUSH. Finally after two years I had almost given up on him. At a basketball game one night I finally got the news they broke up. In searching for him, I see him already holding hands with Callie. WHAT!! Flustered I leave to go on a walk. Me and my friend Lindsey get to Pizza Stop when across the street I hear someone yelling at me. It's one of Austin's friends. He comes over and askes me if I will GO OUT with Austin. NO! I said. Will you go out with me then. he said. No! and we left. Another block and I hear Austin behind us, catching us fast. Why wont you Go out with me he says. Anyway he follows me for about three blocks asking me why! and please. The whole time I am thinkin why am I saying no I have wanted this boy for two years now. So he finally quits and goes home. I was sleeping at Lindsay's that night so I had her call Austin and tell him I would be his girlfriend. SO GET THIS the next day was my birthday and guess who shows up at my door with a long stemmed rose and a black and white kids poster, of a little blond boy holding a long stemmed rose. MY AUSTIN Now after an education, a house, and two kids together I wouldn't have it any other way:)

No, I'm not picky really. I just don't like shredded lettuce or diced tomatoes. I like them any other way though. We pretty much eat anything. David doesn't like soup unless it has a lot of meat in it. I'll have to show you my collection of recipes when I get there! I think I subconsciously collect recipes. I love them!
