April

We were introduced through our mutual friends at least more than once before we decided to go out on a date.  At the encouragement of our friends, we had our first lunch date.  Art was over an hour late picking me up, which was ok with me since I was running late myself, and too nervous to allow too much time for our first date.  I figured if we ran behind schedule, it would cut our date short which would of been a good thing if I were not interested.  Art knocked on my door and handed me a bouquet of tulips....and thats where it all turned around!  We spent our first lunch date enjoying sushi and talking.  When the our date ended I didn't hear from Art for a few days.  As it turned out, Art came down with a severe reaction from the sushi which gave him an all over rash! It was something right out of the move "Along Came Polly!"  He recovered, and we continued our courtship which brought us here...5 1/2 years later, planning our wedding.
