It was just another game day at the Vineland Ice Arena, where Eric would follow his brother Christian before a game. That day became more than just another game day, when Coach Weber walked into the rink, with Erica following shortly behind. At that moment, Eric turned to one of the guys and asked, "Who is that girl?" When his teammate answered, "oh that's Coach's Daughter," Eric immediately responded, "Oh Nevermind." From that moment on, they continued to cross paths, maybe saying hi once or twice. Eric would always hope to see Erica at each game, in hopes that something would come of it.
Fast forward to 10 years, Eric gets a call from our friend Marquee, asking him to go out for drinks. Eric was adamant about not going, until he found out Erica was going too. Erica was pleasantly surprised to see Eric! Throughout the night, they were able to catch up, as Erica just graduated from Rutgers. Eric then mustered up the courage, aka took a shot and finished his beer, to ask Erica to come to Sea Isle for Memorial Day Weekend.
A weekend in Sea Isle, turned into a trip to DC. Resulting in Eric "Facebook Officially" asking Erica to be his girlfriend. From that moment, 1 year, turned into 3 years, and they moved to Philly to start their lives together.
