We first met on a blind date! My best friend Stephanie (who is married to Joe's childhood best friend Andy) was hounding me to let her give my phone number to Joe. Finally on the 4th of July I decided to just let him have my number because.. I could just not answer if I didn't feel like talking, right?. Luckily for me, I picked up when he called and from that first phone call, there were definite sparks. And till this day, we have not missed very many phone calls (face times) since. After talking/texting we then decided to set up a date to meet in person. He had worked all day and had already been up for 20 hours when he came to pick me up. The first date wasn't the best. We both went home EXHAUSTED and hungry. The 2nd date is what we call our "magic date" because that's when everything fell into place, and I knew Joe was the man for me. He says that's the date he knew that I was his too! And, We have been inseparable ever since. When we got engaged we both had tears in our eyes as we left the jewelry store and we couldn't wait to share the good news with everyone. We cherish every day we are together. He is my Rock and I am his Biggest Supporter. Through all the good times, and the bad, we have each other and that is what matters. We are so excited to start our lives together as Husband and Wife and we are looking forward to sharing this journey with all our friends and family. Thank you all for your love and support.
