I thought since i'm going to be sharing my pregnancy on here I might as well put some snippets of my life so you get to know me and my husband more and how we came to be....
(*edit*: I decided my description of our introduction was a bit vague, because when i tell the entire story to most people they think it's funny, so i'm going to add a few more details...)
I met Joel through my best friend laura...He was in a band that my best friend and i went to see all the time at shows, and they were HORRIBLE...the band name was called "questionable authority" and we called it "questionable talent" hah...but the lead singer was a skinny tattooed punk guy that was gooorgeous, And he smoked cigarettes, leather jackets, holy jeans, and wore bandanas like a badass. I thought he was sooo much older than me, because he smoked, and i just KNEW he was a jerk, i mean what rock star isn't a jerk right? Literally thought he was like the rudest, mean person in the world, but he was adorable, so i just admired him from afar...One day my best friend called and said that her friend Alex had brought some soup over because she was sick and that Joel had come with him and he was the nicest guy in the world...and I was like you have to be kidding me, QA Joel?? He's a jerk...But no, she kept saying, "No, seriously, he is the sweetest guy you will ever meet..." Infact when they were talking she mentioned me, and Joel knew exactly who i was, he said "That really cute girl with all the ear piercings and the cool hair?" haha, that was me; So we set up a time to go get coffee....and this picture is from that first night....
He was my first 'Real' Boyfriend....(The parents really loved that i fell inlove with a tattooed punk)
And He was in a Band :-) (They got better....kind of)
We fell in love....He came to eat lunch with me everyday in highschool, even though he had already graduated.
We broke up for a brief time, and we dated other people, i wasn't ready to grow up and try to be on my own yet....but while i was away at school in MN he called me out of the blue and told me he couldn't stop thinking about me and that he wanted to try it again, so we did the long distance thing for awhile..
and we DID stay together....and he asked me to Marry him...
And the rest is history....we've been together around 7ish years...we've been married for 2 1/2 years. And i fall more in love with him everyday! He is the sweetest, thoughtful person in the world and would do absolutely ANYTHING for me.
And i can't wait to start a family with the love of my life!






Awe. Band boys are the cutest. My hubs was in a band when we first met. He sort of still is they just don't play a lot anymore because they are all too busy having families. ha. Anyway. I am a big fan of your hair. It's awesome... and your tats. I need to go through your older post and see if you talk about them. If you don't you should definitely do a post about your tats.
