Yesterday was Mike's birthday. We surprised him at the BCM the night before with balloons and cupcakes, and as usual, couldn't wait to open presents, so we let him open them the night before, too.
Birthdays are milestones in our relationship. The first time I remember talking to him (he remembers others before, but that's another story) was at a surprise 25th birthday party my roommates, Karry and Beverly, gave me. He was the only one to give me a "nice" card. 4 months later he asked me out, and exactly 3 months after that we went on a date to celebrate his 27th birthday. We went out to eat, then went to Trinity Park (Ft. Worth) and sat on a bench, um, watching the water. I told him I hoped this was his happiest birthday ever, and he said, "You know what would make this my happiest birthday ever? If you would marry me!!" He caught me totally by surprise. So much so that I didn't even say yes! But 4 days later I did, and the next 15 years have been the best of my life.

Ang-the day after he proposed was a Sunday. I sang in the choir at Wedgwood, feeling like I was in a dream. After church you, me, Charlie, and Mike were in the foyer talking to Mark Neese, who was visiting that day, and I said, "Angie I have to go to the bathroom, don't you want to go with me?" and told you in there. Do you remember that? You squealed lilke I did when you woke me up at the BSU retreat to tell me Charlie proposed! :)
Ya'll are so cute! I'm glad you have a blog Kecia!
