Truth or Dare- Part 1

One of my favorite things to talk about is my husband and our story.

I got this idea from a fellow blogger. She told her whole story starting out how she and her husband met all the way until they got married. 

Of course it took a few different posts to get all the details in but I loved reading all the funny and awkward things that happen through the time they spent dating.

Since I've known Al for a LONG time. I figured I would try this out. It's been so much fun to think about those good old high school days and take a trip down memory lane. :)

The first memory I have of Alek was 6 years ago, Sophomore year, 2008. My group of friends were over at April's house just hanging out like we did almost every weekend. My other friend Annie was crushing on this kid, Tyson, that just so happened to be pretty good friends with Al. Tyson came over to hang out with Annie and brought a few friends with him, including Al. I had know idea who Alek was at the time. And boy, he seemed like he did not want to be there. He kind of just sat back on the corner couch and didn't really talk.

 We all sat down and started watching a movie and Alek fell asleep on the couch.

After the movie was over, a game of truth or dare sprouted. It wasn't long before one of the other boys in the group dared April and I to kiss Alek (who was still asleep-or so he made us believe) on the cheek. You know how girls are at that age right? We started freaking out and blushing like crazy! 

"What if he wakes up?!"

"You go first!"

"No, you go first!"

We were definitely making a scene. 

Finally we both sucked it up and got the courage and both took our turns kissing sweet lil Al on the cheek. It was the fastest little pecks in history. It was a big deal to innocent lil' me because I just kissed someone on the cheek that was a total stranger! But, Alek didn't budge at all and stayed fast asleep.

Fast forward a couple years, when Alek and I were dating. 

Al brings up the time that I had kissed him on the cheek. I had completely forgotten about it and was completely blown away!!

"That was you??!"

He admitted to being awake the whole time. He was just pretending to sleep because he didn't want to be there and Tyson dragged him along. Al said he has never had to use so much self control in his life. He thought for sure at any moment he would bust up laughing.

I thought it was the craziest thing! I didn't even know that kid was that I kissed all those years ago and here we were dating and talking about it!  And still even crazier...who would've ever thought 6 years later we would be married with a kid on the way. So much fun to think about :)

Since I love pictures, but I have no pictures of that particular incident. I decided to put some of these throwbacks up of me and my girls. Love you guys! 

Stay tuned for the next post about mine and Al's first date!
