David and I met at Pierce Community College during a Multi Cultural Dinner that was hosted through the MLI club at our junior college. While there he caught my attention as he was the center of attention and the main focus. After that dinner I was working at the coffee stand in the school when I saw him walk by and I had to go say hi. After that we continued to talk when we say each other around school. One day after I got off work I asked him if he wanted to go to a park with me and then I would give him a ride home. At first he hesitated (I think he wanted to see if I really wanted him to goo;)) we spent about two hours at the park that night which is where I got my first kiss and is the location that we are getting married at. Though I was still not completely sure if this was going to be something serious or not I wanted to continue to hang out with him and see what happened. The following weekend he invited me to come out with him and some friends. On our way to his friend’s house from a club we got hit by a drunk driver and my passenger side door got caved in. The next day David was up early calling pull a part lots to find a new door for my car. We met my grandpa at the pull apart and they went out and got my new door. David then informed my grandpa that his dad used to work on cars and would have several of the parts at his house. So we went to his house to get the tools. This was the Friday before Memorial Day and we were having a party at my house that Monday that David was already planning on attending. While at his house his dad and my grandpa started talking and his grandpa said he could use some help so David’s dad said well David’s not doing anything this weekend he could come out and help you, why doesn’t he just stay the weekend? (At 21 and 28 this was rather funny watching our family make plans for us) Then his dad looked at him and said why are you just standing there don’t you need to go pack My grandpa looked at me and told me he would talk to my parents and that it would be ok. So he went to the house spent the weekend helping my grandpa fix the car, met my son (and was wonderful with him), met my friends and family and they all loved him. After that he asked me out and if was history from there! Anyone that can make my,family, friends, son , and self happy is perfect:)
