Another milestone...2 years!

So it has officially been 2 years since I met Ben--and not to sound like a broken record, but the past 2 years have seriously flown by! The first time I met Ben was at my sister-in-law Kelli's softball game... thanks Kelli! It was sort of a group blind date....ish...thing. We knew that there were 3 guys coming to hang out and we had 3 girls including me and then my brother Matt and sister-in-law Kelli. As we were driving to meet the boys we found out that there were 2 guys named Micah and one guy named Ben. One of the girls was getting set up with one of the Micah's and the other girl and I got to choose which one we wanted...so to speak. I said that I had already dated 2 Ben's so I would go with the one named Ben.

When the boys introduced themselves, apparently I didn't tell Ben what my name was and he thought that I was a little stuck up! I still feel bad for that one. (Although in my defense, I remember that I just said my name once as to introduce myself to all 3 of them at the same time). As we walked to the cars to go to dinner, I found out that he was 24 and he found out that I was only 18! My mom flipped a little on that one... Luckily I turned 19 a couple weeks later. We went to dinner at Iggy's Sports Grill...which is pretty good and we have gone back to the same one a few times since then.

The last thing we did that night was bowling... I don't remember where it was...probably somewhere in West Jordan and I'm sure Ben could tell me, but we went bowling and I won! I don't just mean that I beat Ben, but I beat everyone! I am bragging a little, sorry... I thought it was pretty cool though. We also played a little pool at the bowling alley. To end the night, as I posted in the one right before this, I gave Ben my number and he texted me right away to see if it was my real phone number :). I sort of thought that he was a player and probably wouldn't ever call me, but a week later we went out again...and obviously that wasn't the last time. With Ben's, the 3rd time was the charm!
