How We Met

Fall 2014

In August of 2014 Northside Baptist Church Choir was having their annual anniversary. I, Cherie, am the Music Director for the church and I, Shawn, was playing for Chapel Hill Baptist Church. I saw Shawn sitting in the congregation before the start of service and thought "hmmm who is that?" Being that we had just started to pass out programs, I walked by gracefully and asked "do you have a program?" Then I saw little ms Morgan (age 2 at the time), and thought he was unavailable; I kept right along focusing on having a successful program. When I saw Cherie, I thought "oh she looks like she's married with kids". But I still asked some of the choir members who she was, found out Chapel Hill was her home church. Ms Ollie told me she was already dating someone. Later in the service, Chapel Hill sung and when Shawn opened his mouth to sing Shine On Me, I asked again "Who Is This!?" He had my full attention. A month went by and at work Ms Ollie came up to me and told me, "Cherie I know somebody that's in love with you". Looking perplexed yet flattered, "who ms Ollie?" She said "our musician". Well in October I made sure that Northside choir went to Chapel Hill's choir anniversary. After church I was running around with Morgan and trying to get back on time, I just happened to park by Cherie. (Cherie: Y'all he was eating some Lays Salt and Vinegar potato chips when he pulled up.) In service I noticed Cherie wasn't sitting with her so-called companion. So after church Ms Ollie was still up to her matchmaking, she tells me, "Cherie, Shawn wants a hug". I'm looking like okay he can get a church hug lol, but he has to approach me. He ended up asking for my Facebook information. Shawn says he was being polite because he thought I was dating someone. We've been together ever since!
