That One Simple Moment That Changed Our Lives

Most couples fall in love over time after sharing good memories.  Our story is a little different.  For me, I knew when I first saw Neil that he was a man I wanted to know better.  After a few conversations, I knew he was an amazing person with whom I had much in common.  From there, it was just lovely getting to know him more every day.  I still come to know new things about him from time to time and I love him more now than ever.

For Neil, he was definitely interested and cared about me a great deal, but there was a moment that he knew he loved me.  I used to work every weekend with the exception of one per quarter.  This left us with little time to date outside of weeknight dinners.  The first weekend we spent together was about 3 months after we started dating.  We went to a wedding together for his friend Nelly.  We spent the entire weekend together and shared so many great times.

At this moment August, 29 2009- we fell so deeply in love with each other.  It was only by chance that her photographer captured the moment. We had no idea anyone was watching us. This photo truely captured how we are together. In a room full of people, we can be completely lost in each other.
