Our Love Story

We made up a fun game for the couples who are attending our "Vows" event tonight. This was our love story!

Our Love Story

It all began __17_ years ago. We had both decided to go out with friends one evening.
(number)
It was a beautiful night and it goes without saying that the stars must have been perfectly
aligned. I remember so well, looking around the crowded room when our _noses___ met.
(body part-plural)
We both knew it was _moody__ at first sight.
(emotion)

Oh, how we loved spending time together. In those days, hours seemed like __century____
(length of time)
until the next time we would see each other. Our favorite date had to be the time we went
to _Sea World__. What fun! We talked for hours and laughed until our stomachs hurt! I
(place)
still remember it like it was yesterday.


And of course there was our first fight. Who can forget that? She got so mad because I
forgot to _smell___ her. I felt really _simple___, but when I said I was sorry, she quickly
(verb-present tense) (adverb-without ‘ly’)
forgave me and all was right with the world again.


What a surprise when I met her family. It was Thanksgiving and her mother had made a 20 pound _Chimichanga_. How strange! The only person in her family that was a bit odd
(food)
was her _Grandmother's cousin. I’m not sure, but I think there might have been too much cooking
(relative)
sherry in her _Death by Chocolate_. Holiday’s might be a little rough, but my love is worth it!
(dessert)

And I have to talk about our wedding day! That is a day I will never forget! It was so
__Colorful__. All of our friends and __Fijians_____ were there, but you know I could have been
(descriptive word) (group of people)
just as happy if it were only the two of us. I remember how _cuddly___ she looked in her
(adverb)
wedding dress. She took my breath away. Our vows were so romantic and special. We
had __swam___ them ourselves. But the best part was when the preacher told us we could
(verb-past tense)
_sing____. I think fireworks went off. The happiest day of my life is when he pronounced
(verb-present tense)
us _cardboard__ and wife.
(noun)


Now I have to be careful what I write, but I have to mention that our honeymoon was Phenomenal!! We made love _7____ times and even once in the _Olive Garden_! One of
(number) (place)
my favorite memories is when she dressed up like __Elmo___ and called me
(fictional character)
_Willy Wonka____. Oh, to be young and in love. These are memories we will never forget.

Vows KickOff

My Oath -

Sweetheart, I could not be prouder of us. This past weekend we kicked off the "vows" study at our house. I can't believe that it is finally a reality.

I remember so many times over the past few years where we talked about reaching out and helping other couples - well, baby that has now become a reality. I love the fact that together we can help others from waht we expereinced.

I know that we have much to learn about our vows, but I am so thankful for the committments and vows that we have made to each other. I am so glad that you are the one that I have given my heart too...

I love you and I look forward to what the next few months will bring!

Your Devoted Husband.
