Our families have known each other since before we were born. They had mutual friends, and Jordan's aunt (from his mom's side) introduced my mom to my now step dad (who was best friend's with Jordan's uncle). From then on, we had always been involved in family parties and get togethers. My family was definitely closer to Jordan's aunt's side, as my step dad and her husband were best friends. I remember this one party in particular, though.. It was back in 2003. It was a surprise party for his aunt Jackie.. We were in elementary school at the time, 4th grade to be exact. I remember the exact thing I was wearing. All the kids were playing in one of his cousins room and we were taking turns making jokes. It was my turn, I said an awful joke, that to this day we laugh about.. While all this was going on, Jordan's mom, Maria, was talking to my mom in the kitchen about how Jordan had just started modeling and how she could take pictures of me and my sister; that's it, the appointment was set up. We left the party that night, with me dreaming of this boy who was so cute and so funny.. With a date set up in the coming week for his mom to come to my house and take pictures. The day came & I remember my mom doing my make up and hair. Then Maria called and said "We are on the way".. I FREAKED! He was coming.. I quickly snuck into my moms make up drawer, and loaded up on the powder, I needed to look perfect. I was so nervous. He was so cute.. I had a major crush.. Little did I know, so did he. After that day, I did what all little girls do when they have a crush, I told all my friends I had a boyfriend, but then I didn't see him for years after that. Fast forward to July of 2010, when we reconnected down in the Keys, the spark was still there.. After that 4th of July weekend, we became pretty much inseparable. On August 5, 2010 Jordan asked me to be his girlfriend & you know the rest!
