On September 13th, 2002....

OK, so I read my friend Lindsay's blog today and felt and urge to 'copy' her. So you have to read mine, but also follow the link to her blog and read it as well. =) I thought it too funny to pass by.


On September 13th, 2002....
I met Brandon for the first time.
I took a picture of him sitting on the couch at his apartment.
I never got rid of it.
Our friend Corey (who I thought at the time was just MY friend Corey -- haha) took me to a party in Pendleton for the Pendleton Round Up. We were going to meet up with some of his friends and then head down to the Happy Canyon Dance.
Some how Corey and I had been friends for a long time (through most of high school). And Brandon and Corey had been best friends for a long time (through most of high school). And yet Brandon and I had never met.
We had a great time that night dancing and visiting with the rest of our friends. And then I went back to Eugene and Brandon stayed in Pendleton and Corey went back to LaGrande.
I didn't see or talk to Brandon again until January of 2003.
When we met up again at Corey's Superbowl Party in LaGrande that January of 2003 we hit it off again, talked the entire evening, road back to Pendleton together, and he came down the following weekend to see me in Eugene.
From there the rest is history.



happy {we met at the Pendleton Round Up} anniversary Brandon!

and thanks for the great idea Lindsay! =)
