How do you do?

Oh my, just 16 days left until I become Mrs. Pettner =] Wow, how time has flew by, I can remember last summer and the wedding just seeming oh so far away and now...only a little over two weeks away!

In case any of you were wondering....Will, my serious yet baby faced fiance and I met at work. I work in a warehouse environment and I am one of the lucky ones who has a wonderful desk job (so I get to sit on my ass all day) Will on the other hand worked out on the floor moving boxes from point A to point B, basically. =p One day I heard through the grapevine that Will Pettner had a crush on me, I had no idea who this boy was....so feeling flattered, I asked around to anyone and everyone who Will Pettner was?? No one really knew either. Luckily, one of my friends knew who he was and pointed him out, so now I knew what he looked like at least....however, we never spoke. Then one extra sucky day I was out on the floor doing manual labor, throwing boxes at a pallet strip and a boy came up to help me, he didn't speak and of course I didn't speak because I am naturally that rude...we threw boxes together and that was it, as I went to move my blue cart away I passed him and said, "thank you" and went on my way.

A few weeks past and I had forgotten about Will Pettner because well... to be honest I didn't think he was that cute! Then on a Thursday at work (my Friday, and the big civil war game between the two college football teams which is a big deal around my parts) I noticed a very cute boy in the lunch room =] This boy had very dark eyes and a awesome very attractive beard...facial hair is my weakness...as I looked closer I realized OH MY!!! that is Will Pettner! So...we had this awkward stare at each other for maybe a minute, but it seemed like a long time but he still didn't come talk to me, sheesh what was I going to do with this boy? I decided to text a mutual friend of ours and just ask for Will's number and take matters into my own hands! I texted him that same day with some silly question inquiring about if he had an apartment and how much he paid because I was trying to get  a new place of my own for cheaper. He didn't catch on to the subtle inquiry... he just answered my questions and left it at that =/ then we kind of just started talking about the football game and who each wanted to win, which was the opposite of one another so we made a friendly wager =] Sadly, I lost and I had to wear his teams sweater to work that next Monday =/ ...and we have been connected to one another since Dec 3, 2009 =]

...that is our story of how we met, pretty cute huh? =p

p.s.  he LOVES olives and Colby jack cheese and I despise them both... so we are a match made in heaven =]
