How We Met

Happy To Be Stuck With You

It is a tale as old as time, she walked in, his jaw was on the floor. Simply put that night he was mesmerized from the moment their eyes met. But I want to take you back to just 10 minutes before. Jessey, Sarah, and Phil are at SanTan Brewery waiting for Kim to walk in and they both warn him that she is maybe just a little bit out of his league. In the most caring and gentle way, they explain to him that she is like a 10 and he is like a 6 with a bonus point for being a good guy. They tell him to relax, but don't be weird. Be yourself, but don't do that thing you do. You get the idea. Sarah went on to make sure he understood that this woman is the funniest person she had ever met and he would not be able to keep up with her, so just let Kim take the lead. And here they are today, with her leading the way as the most funny person in the house. They only spent a little while at SanTan brewery because it was very loud and first dates are about getting to know someone. So they headed off to the cool new Mexican place (that isn't there anymore) for some snacks. Sitting at this table getting to know each other they had their first photo taken and she touched his hand for the first time. A moment, a feeling that he will never forget. They talked and laughed, shared, and smiled as the hours flew by it was obvious that they had made a connection. The night moved on to The Perch to enjoy their rooftop patio. As soon as they got a moment alone Phil and Jessey shared their disbelief about how well the night was going. If I recall correctly Phil asked Jessey if there was a spell or something at play, but to his knowledge Jessey did not know of any spells. They spent the rest of the evening telling stories and as it turns out falling in love. And they sealed the night with a piggyback ride. No, seriously a real piggyback ride.
