Chelsea had moved to Ohio from her home state of Iowa, and had been working at a factory for about a year; Josh had taken a summer job before college at the same factory. Chelsea was a machine operator and Josh was sorting parts at the machine "next door". Separated by a large rack of parts, Chelsea was singing, when she heard a "shuttttt uppppp" from an unknown male beyond the rack. She stopped the machine and walked over and said "who said that!?", finding out it was the cute, long-curly-haired blonde she'd seen on break just a short while earlier. Details afterwards are hazy, but it most likely involved Chelsea getting flustered from the mix of attraction and embarrassment. She later received a "delivery" from a forklift operator with a note from the cute blonde that said "I lost my number, can I have yours?". Chelsea didn't reply, and Josh (the cute blonde), cornered her after work and got it! He then started working out at the YMCA at the same time as Chelsea, and won her over with his treadmill prowess and surprise kisses in the shallow pool. Josh assumed him and Chelsea were an official couple until one fateful morning in the fall, while having breakfast at Bob Evans before josh went back to college for the week. He was talking to Chelsea about how she was his girlfriend, and Chelsea informed him that she didn't remember being asked to be his girlfriend. And so, on that magical date, Josh officially asked Chelsea to be his. Chelsea insists that was October 17, 2005, while Josh stands by it having been October 18th, 2005. Since the actual date is less important than the fact that from that moment on, Chelsea and Josh started their life together, they celebrate both!
