Where Else........in Physical Therapy!

He wrapped me in his arms and I decided I am not going anywhere now

From Lauren: After living in Los Angeles, CA for a few years, I moved back to Dallas to immerse back into normal life as a Texan. I was living the life here and going to spin classes daily and feeling good. My hip started bothering me and I underwent surgery. I had to live with my parents for a few weeks and was referred to the greatest Physical Therapist in the city of Dallas! Within a few days of hobbling around in PT and him making fun of my walk, we had an underlying connection. I don't think he knew, but I knew. We eventually exchanged phone numbers towards the end of my therapy, so we could talk outside of work. I was cautiously optimistic about the whole situation, but I was happy with where things were heading. Despite only knowing me for a couple months, Jason showed his big heart by inviting me to a Darius Rucker show. I was definitely impressed, and even more intrigued by what would become of this new relationship. Fast forward a year and Jason and Lucy were showing me the life outside of Dallas. Living it up, traveling, hiking, adventuring and having fun. We took a few trips together; our first one was actually to his mom's house for Christmas to meet his family, which didn't scare me off. We then went to Arizona and enjoyed our first hike together at Tom Thumb's trail! He didn't kill me. I think he was impressed I kept up with him. Then we spent the summer in Colorado with Lucy, friends and lots of mountain air! Summer of love!!! I can't wait to spend more time in the outdoors with him and our future dog! Jason: it all started with a couple of “quick” phone calls up at the clinic..**caller ID Aldrich pulls up on the phone. Without ever meeting her face to face I could tell this woman was a handful. A couple weeks go by and she comes hobbling in. I couldn’t believe my eyes, nor did I realize just yet this would be the woman I’d spend forever with. After our first consult I could tell she was only consumed with wanting to get better as quick as possible and didn’t accept a “no Lauren 4x a week of PT is overkill for you” her stubborn self just showed up .. After a couple weeks of sessions and getting to know her anticipated lifestyle to be I could sense a connection forming, it was a feeling that I can't even describe. We started out talking almost every night , I showed her some pictures of Lucy and my lifestyle on the road, my trip out in Bend Oregon and then came the day..... I gained up the courage to ask her out on a proper date and of course she accepted. After our first date I realized, I want to date Lauren fo real FOR REAL . I called her up and told her I’d like to be exclusive officially. Lauren giddy with excitement wanted the same and from that moment on we were inseparable. Outings, concerts, dinners and adventures, I knew I’ve got me the woman I can’t live without and it was just a matter of timing. I got some subtle hints from mutual friends, some much-needed help from our good friend Laren for her dream engagement ring, and the green-light from her parents about my plans to propose to their daughter. On my birthday, I surprised her with a plane flight over Dallas, as I told her this was her birthday present (her's is the 28th). I popped the question to an utterly shocked Lauren when we got off the plane and were going to walk in for dinner. She of course said yes, but her reaction spoke for her. We celebrated with champagne, steak/fish and veggies, and the rest is history.

For all the days along the way
