{ OUR STORY }


{ summer 2007 }

C and I had attended the same church for several years. We knew of each other, but never really had been friends until 2007 when we both went on a mission trip to Salt Lake City, Utah. This trip required us to take a 20+ hour bus ride to arrive at our destination. Saying this the team got to be very close with one another. 

Utah Mission Trip 2007

We realized during this trip that we would both be attending the same high school next year (an optional high school for students in the south suburbs in Minnesota, called the School of Environmental Studies)

We had a short conversation about that, and became 'kinda' friends at that point. We ran into each other a couple more times before the beginning of the school year but that was that.

Then the school year started. Being at a new school, you suddenly become better friends with 

Before we were dating, X-man being beat up by Spiderwomen

So C & I's friends began to hang out more. 

and gradually C started to take interest in me. He would talk to me more, come to visit me at my desk more frequently, and after some time asked me to help him out with his algebra homework. 

we kept "doing homework" with one another but really we were starting the initial phases of dating. Our homework sessions turned into hang out sessions, and before we knew it we were dating
