December-Let the Craziness begin!!

Today is the FIRST DAY OF DECEMBER,

my favorite month of the year!

When I woke up this morning Peter said---I'm going to the gym....that wasn't the romatic part, haha. He then said- Happy 42 months, which for those of you who can't count, or don't want to divide...it's 3 years and 6 months!!

We met 7 years ago at a Party at UF when I was still in High School. Throughout my first couple years at UF I saw Peter and other friends out and about, I'd visit them at their house, and once we even went out on a sushi date...but we were just friends. About 4 years ago we started hanging out more consistently (on purpose)--I guess you can call it dating, during Spring semester of my Junior (his senior) year. When the summer came around, he told me- "I'm not ready for -US- to be over"...and I was super surprised that he felt that way, but really excited. We both had EURO trips planned for that summer and so we talked about how nice it would be to meet up in Europe...but nothing concrete came out of it. We both went along our marry ways. I would get the occasional phone call or random email from Peter when he was abroad....THEN IT HAPPENED!!! I was in Budapest visiting my friend/roomate Boglarka and Peter was hanging out in Vienna with Dre, Jeanette, and D-daddy. I had told B that I wanted to surprise Peter in Vienna...and she went along with it...took me to the train station--LITTLE DID I KNOW that Peter and B had been plotting to SURPRISE ME!!!

From Hungary

When I saw Peter on that Train Platform I threw my book bag (which in retrospect was not a very good idea since it had my passport and money but whatever) and ran right past Jeanette (since I didn't know her yet) and d-daddy screaming right into Peter's arms. Everyone has their fairy tale moment....I'm lucky cause this was just the FIRST of many FAIRY tale moments that I have been able to share with Peter!!! That same day (a couple hours later) he suggested we make it official---and the rest is history, lol.

Here is a slideshow of my trip to Budapest...=)

As if walking down memory lane wasn't enough...
