don't normally do these....but what the heck

Where did you meet your husband? fall semester of 2000 (i think). we had one class together. we didn't really talk that semester but both noticed each other. the following semester we had two classes together. the second day of class i saw john sleeping in the hall about an hour before our class. i woke him up and told him he had missed class. he didn't find it as funny as i thought he would.
Where was your first kiss? under mistletoe on valentines day 2001. we were eating dinner at my apartment while studying for a test. lets just say this wasn't your ordinary mistletoe kiss.
Did you have a long or short engagement/courtship? hum..we dated from march to sept 2001. he then went on his mission. he got home in august 2003 and we got engaged feb. 2004.
Where did you get engaged? machu picchu, peru. we were on our way to pick up my sister from her mission in chile. he totally surprised me. i remember he told me that when we get back from our trip we should start looking for rings. we just happened to be in machu picchu on valentines day. typically i wouldn't prefer to get engaged on valentines day, but being in machu picchu was perfect. we took a hike up to a temple and he stopped on the trail and asked me. it was raining and perfect! i of course started laughing when he asked me. he was so cute!!
How was the honeymoon? great. we spent it in scottsdale. we were building our home and decided to take a short honeymoon and then went to spain for our one year anniversary.

You had a more-than-regular kiss on V-day 2001, but didn't start 'dating' til March 2001, huh? :)

I love the Machu Picchu engagement! That's awesome.
