Courtship

Fun and Interesting facts:

  • After a life time of searching we found each other at e-harmony.com.
  • We met for our first date at the Olive Garden in the River Gate shopping center on April 22, 2005.  We were both very nervous and excited.  After dinner we headed to the Hollywood 27 theatre to watch the newest Will Smith flick, "Hitch"(trailer).
  • We hit it off so well that date number two was the very next day.  We went to a grill out at Tony's where we drank wine, played cards and of course relaxed in the hot tub.
  • Memorial day was the first holiday we spent together.  We went to a friends house in Newburg, Indiana to grill out and hang with new friends.
