WE ARE GETTING MARRIED!

Our love story is much like that of what you see in a movie. It all began with some friends setting us up on an blind date of which we had no clue was a set up. BBQ and beverages and hot tub ensued. After complementing Lauren on how nice her legs were, she gave me the response of "I Know..." I left dejected after giving my best and only pick up line but still had the courage to ask for her number. Some reason she gave me her real number. A few days later I built up the courage to message her and ask her out. Again, for some reason she actually said yes. I decided for our date, I would put my best foot forward and dressed in my nicest suit. We decided to go out to dinner at Matador in Tacoma and I was dressed to impress...who doesn't like a guy in a suit, I thought? I guess Lauren wasn't trying to impress me because she showed up in some yoga pants and a loose sweatshirt but when I saw her I still thought she looked beautiful (it was actually jeans and a loose fitting top because she had just gotten tattooed that day but you get my point). After dinner we decided to go to Dorky's bar in Tacoma. Dorky's is a bar with a ton of old and new arcade games. I thought this would be a perfect time to impress her with my arcade game playing skills....boy was I wrong! Lauren dominated me in EVERY game we played from PacMan to Air Hockey to Car Racing. However, losing was not the worst thing. Somehow I had gotten her to agree to wager a kiss per game so in the end I was a winner no matter what! After our first date, I knew Lauren was someone special. We just made sense for some crazy reason. Now here we are a few years later and I get to marry this beautiful, wonderful, love of my life. I couldn't be luckier.
