How We Met

10/31/15

It all started with Jen's best friend Lyndsay. You see, Kenny and Lyndsay worked together at BMW in Palm Harbor. Kenny inquired if she had any "hot" single friends. and she knew Jen was on the market looking for a good guy. Lyndsay told Kenny to come along for the upcomming Halloween festivities, and let him know Jen would be there. She just never told Jen about it. Fast forward, they hit it off and it seemed like the plan worked. They had many things in common, and both loved to laugh. Later in the night Kenny headed to the store with the guys, and Jen left to go home. There was just one problem, Kenny never asked for her phone number, and he didn't realize she left. What is a guy to do? He needed her number! Well, he asked Lyndsay if it was ok to have Jen's phone number. Like any good girlfriend, Lyndsay first checked with her and she said sure! Jen and Kenny talked for a week, and then had their first date. As they were to meet up for dinner at the restaurant, Kenny said he was right by her house. Confused and slightly freaked out, Jen called Lyndsay in a panic to figure out how he knew where she lived. After a couple of laughs, it was discovered that the contact card Lyndsay sent over to Kenny had all of her information. Name, phone number, address, and birthday. Her address ended up in his GPS. That first date was full of laughs and one to remember!

The Proposal

10/31/17

No tricks, and a BIG treat! Halloween is a special day for Jen and Kenny. That is when they met after all! On this particular Halloween two years later, Kenny had a treat in mind. He had to work late, so Jen took the kids out to start Halloween. Their theme was a scary clown family. Everyone got dressed up, and Jen decided to go all out with face make up. When Kenny arrived he was not in costume, and asked Jen if he should get dressed. Since the candy run was almost over, Jen said "that's OK you don't have to". Oh, if only she told him to change! Kenny took her hand and walked her into the kitchen. He asked for everyone’s attention as he had an announcement to make. It was at that time Kenny asked his scary clown girlfriend to marry him, and of course she said yes!
