I figure I'd like to participate in this cute, silly thing to help me keep track of things, like the wedding and whatnot seeing how I haven't been able to do much tracking since we moved to Ecuador right after the wedding, and now to South Korea shortly after that. So here it goes.
Here's the shortened & condensed version...
How it All Began:
Jason and I met through my best friend. We started off as friends at first. My best friend and I would hang out with him and his friends quite often. Then my best friend moved out of state to go to university, but I still hung out with Jason and his friends.

At a Halloween party. 2005. Shortly after this, we started to hang out more one-on-one. =) |
The first time I took him dirtbiking with my family. Thanksgiving weekend. 2005. |
Towards the end of 2005, we started to hang out more, and just the two of us. Feelings were starting to develop, but I'll admit- I was trying to fight them (and so was he) because we both had gone through a break up just months before. We would go out to dinner, go around the city taking pictures, go to shows, just innocent fun.
Then one night, he had a show where he was filling in for a band member in a local band (he plays guitar). I was running a little late, but as I made my way through the crowd and up towards the front, we made eye contact and he smiled... and for some reason, I thought "Yeah, I really like him. Don't fake the funk." And from then on, I just let my guard down and so did he. We shared our first kiss shortly after that. Then at a new year's eve party at his house that same year, he "officially" asked me to be his girlfriend.

... and THAT, my friends, is how it all began...
