The Sugar Tree: 730 DAYS OF PURE HAPPINESS.

Thats right, Jesse and I have been together for exactly two years today! I still remember our first date perfectly...it was a Friday, and we drove over to a small town about 30 minutes away. I remember it was cold, because I was wearing my winter coat, but Jesse still had sandals on! I could tell he was so coooold but he wouldn't admit it. We had lunch at a little bistro; we held hands for the first time as we walked in.

It seems like nothing now, but I was so nervous at the time. I was afraid to eat in front of him, so I barely took two bites of my sandwich even though I was starving! After lunch we walked around the square and looked in all of the little shops. I had to run in and by a birthday gift for a friend, and Jesse INSISTED on buying it for me. It was pretty cute. :) We were having so much fun, we didn't want to leave, but I had to work later that day, so he took me back to my house. He gave me a little kiss by the front door before I walked in.

For the rest of the day at work all I could think about was him. Daydreaming the whole time. I probably didn't get such wonderful tips that day! The next day Jesse came over. It was the first time he had come in my house, and we had to sit in the formal living room. It was so funny. We held hands and he asked if I was his girlfriend. I guess y'all can guess what I said! I know what your thinking, isn't just one day/date a little soon to start dating? But Jesse and I had known each other for a year or two already and we had been best friends for most of those years. It just took us a while to realize. (I liked him, and he liked me, but we never actually told each other, so I didn't think he liked me, and vise versa).
