So Brad and I decided we were going to start a blog. Hopefully we'll keep up with this better than we do blogging on Kensie's site! When trying to decide on a title for the blog, we came up with a list of things but Talley Love...Actually was my favorite (Brad came up with it) because it had a lot of meaning and when I read it, it made my heart happy.
Six years ago, Brad and I first met up at Jackson. We were both up at school almost every night the last month of summer working on our classrooms and getting things ready for the upcoming school year. We got to know each other really well, really quickly, during long talks we would have after we were done working. One evening, we were sitting in my classroom talking and it came up that we both loved the movie Love Actually. We shared our favorite parts of the movie, favorite lines, etc. Then we decided to rank our favorite characters in order and then compare. Our lists were exactly the same....just one of many things we had in common. That led to us watching the movie together and then a lot of hanging out as friends outside of school. Somewhere along the line, we started dating. Neither Brad nor myself actually remember our first date, but we are pretty sure it was at Othello's. After three years of dating we got married, a year later had a baby, and in two days we will be celebrating our 3rd anniversary. Three years of bliss, filled with laughter, tears, friendship, surprise....proving that "love is all around"!
