It's Monday story time on Tuesday. Today will be about getting to know your parents!
How we met:
Daddy worked at Snuffy's Malt Shop and Mommy worked at Coopers Supervalu in Minnetonka. Daddy use to come down and buy ice cream for the restaurant and come thru Mommy's check out line. Mom's friend Erin was going to Prom with Daddy's (old) best friend Chad and Daddy didn't have a date...he's shy. So Erin suggested that he ask me! He did! Prom came and went.
A few years later, Mommy's friends started hanging out at Daddy's old house. I finally went with them to a bar in St Louis Park. Mommy and Daddy's first date was 4/17/2003, we went bowling and just for the record, I bet him.
We got engaged 6/17/2004 and were married 9/17/2005!
(this picture is silly but so are we! There was a bee and Daddy was scared of it!)
