This is how we looked when we started school fall semester of our freshman year!Today is our 18 year anniversary! I seriously cannot believe we have been married that long. Even though it is so close to Christmas, Kurt and I usually make it a point to go somewhere at least overnight. We usually finish up any Christmas shopping we have to do. This year we stayed in Salt Lake. It was pretty uneventful! We didn't even go someplace special for dinner.
For many years we would eat dinner at the Ristorante Della Fontana. When we very first met in high school, we went to junior prom and ate at that restaurant. However, we weren't on a date with each other! I was with Shane Kelson and Kurt was with some other girl. So, anyway, it was a fun tradition for us to eat there every year. Unfortunately they closed the restaurant quite a few years ago.
I remember when I met Kurt our junior year I could not get past the hair! His hair was pretty big back then and I was not attracted to him at all. But I would notice him at football and basketball games through the last year of high school. Then, on the first day of school our freshman year at BYU, I was in the bookstore with my friend Gina. We were standing in line to buy some textbooks and I looked across the way and noticed Kurt. I immediately knew who he was and, though the hair was still big, it was big in a good way! What a difference a year had made. He walked over by us and I think I said something to him. He remembered me and we talked for a minute. As it turns out, we were both living in DT and we both had freshman biology. We would run into each other in the Morris Center and on the way to and from class.
Our first official date was on September 27, 1987. It was the Sam Hall Cowboy Party. I was so nervous. We had hung out a little before that but I was so scared to be on an official date. I don't remember much of the date other than Kurt rode a mechanical bull at the party and cut his finger. When I got home from the date, I noticed that I had blood all over the sleeves of my shirt from his finger.
