I love our love story...

but first, a little about him, me, and us :o)

John is: a great future father, a kind person, generous, a hard-worker, and a pretty funny guy. He loves skateboarding (or ripsticking or longboarding, yes, we own each of these things! I even have my own skateboard! It's got flying pandas on it!), he is incredibly knowledgeable about beer AND wine, and he's into video games of all kinds. He has lots of friends, not least of all, my seventeen year old brother. And he will make me a great husband because he loves me, pitches in when I need him to, he's protective, we have fun together, he takes care of me when I'm sick and cleans off my car when it snows, and he actually likes to snuggle (although he wouldn't like that I'm writing it here!).

I'm: a bit more reserved, but like conservatively fun things. I never thought twice about what our wedding would be like before we got engaged, but now I am proudly obsessed. I love to read, manage a retail store, and used to keep lengthy journals (hopefully this blog will help me release some of that pent-up writing energy). I am not so patient, try to give others the benefit of the doubt, a big believer in fairness, and family-oriented. I am a recent graduate from the University of Connecticut, volunteer at a local library, and like to meet friends at our favorite bar on occassion. Oh, and I am a chocoholic (my future family-in-law has a running joke that the three things I will eat are chicken, cheese and chocolate).
In the name of fairness.

John and I are kind of opposites. I was a good student, whereas he didn't care about school. I am quiet, he walks into a room of strangers and everyone likes him. I get restless spending a day sitting around watching movies, he quite enjoys it. And much more. But we see things eye to eye on the important issues and we want the same things for each other that we want for ourselves. And we love each other a little more with every day.
