Happy 22nd wedding anniversary to us!
Last week, Chris and I had our 22nd wedding anniversary, which is equally as absurd as Michael turning 17. How in the world have we put up with each other for 22 years?! If that doesn’t prove the existence of a Higher Power, then I don’t know what does.
In honor of our anniversary, here are 22 fun facts about our marriage:
I accidentally stood Chris up on our first official date. I was 16 and he was 15 and I was supposed to pick him up on his dinner break from Kmart and we were going to have dinner at McDonald’s. But I forgot and he had to walk to McDonald’s on his own.
When we were in high school, we worked at two restaurants on the beach that were owned by the same family. I worked at the big tourist one as a hostess and he worked down the block at the little breakfast cafe as a short-order cook. The waitstaff thought it was adorable.
Also when we were in high school, we broke up for a few months and I went to prom with another guy. Chris drove a 1967 Mustang convertible that he build with his dad and he had just gotten it out of the paint shop. It was this beautiful baby blue color. And that week that he finally drove it to school for the first time, my prom date accidentally t-boned him in the high school parking lot.
