Welcome To Our Love Story

He found her online in early March, but they finally met on April 4, 2014. She agreed to meet him on a chilly Friday evening in Chicago. He escorted her into a quaint Irish pub, a complete gentleman. While conversation flowed, they both ordered fish and chips. She kept wondering if he was into her and he kept hoping to sweep her off her feet. The next morning she received an e-mail that put her mind at ease and promised their next date. Two dates turned into twenty...a cooking class, sampling the delights of Greek Town, Kane County Flea Market, mini golf, and even a craft show. What sealed their fate? A trip to the Museum of Science and Industry and a picnic on the pond in Jackson Park. He spent hours in the kitchen [food to feed an army] and she was bowled over by his care and effort. Fast forward to January 21, 2015. He insisted on coming over that night and she had no clue as to what he had planned with Bernie the Aardvark [see if you can spot him below]. He went down on one knee, she cried, and there's no question they were meant to be.

He's a Pisces and she's a Libra. She's outgoing and he's introverted. He's a computer nerd and she's ... not. She's traveled the world and he travels the net. He's Star Trek and she's StarWars. She's a foodie and he could eat a cheeseburger for every meal. He's a Bridgeport born Sox fan and she's a southside born (traitor!) Cubs fan. She likes country and he likes ANYTHING else. He's Android and she's iPhone. She saunters and he rushes along. He's a dog person and she comes with two cats, Whiskey and Cosmo.

Wrong has never been so right...

BERNIE!!!

Isn't he cute...
