WE'RE SO EXCITED TO BE GETTING MARRIED!

My friend, Colleen that lived in Esparto, invited me to hang out at this little town called Winters that I've never heard of even though I probably drove by it a thousand times when I used to work at Cache Creek Casino. She said to me,; you have to come and hang out with me at this great bar called DeeDee's. At the time, I lived and worked in Fairfield. By the time I get home from work, I'm exhausted and usually don't feel like going out. But one night, I felt compelled to drive out to some town I didn't know while my car was overheating to meet my friends. The first person I met outside was Joe, which I did not know his name at the time because he didn't introduce himself to me. Except that he was very eager to look under the hood of my car to find out what was wrong with her. I didn't get his name until later that night when he walked over to my friends' table, and I was shocked that he also knew my friends. Right away, Joe and I hit off. We talked for the entire night. He was so hilarious and fun to be around. After that first meeting, every time Colleen invited me to go out, I was like, "Hell Yeah, let's go!" No matter how tired I was after work. I couldn't wait to go back and hope to run into that cute, funny guy, who was so eager to look under the hood of my car that first night. Of course, Joe and I kept running into each other, and we became instant friends. Months go by hanging out and having fun; life got too busy, and work got in the way. We lost touch for a few years. But we reconnected on Facebook while playing Words with Friends. So I guess Joe and I can say thanks to Words with Friends for bringing us together. Joe brought me over to meet his parents one day and didn't let me leave because he said I was forever his. So now here we are, almost six years later and we fell in love. We are about to tie the knot and share our special day with all of you.
