It was the fall of 2002 when Denise first caught Jose's eyes.... It all began on a sunny afternoon at Seventh Street Elementary School. The bell had just rung for lunchtime and Jose was sitting at the lunch table with a group of friends, which included Marlene (Denise’s sister). When suddenly, Denise approaches them from the third grade tables asking her sister for one more quarter she needed for ice cream. When out of the corner of her eye... Jose spoke out and said, “Hi, I have one!” Denise could see him looking in his pocket to find that quarter. They had never met before, only seen each other from afar but that day started a spark in the amazing adventure that would unfold. What happened next you may ask? Jose graduated from elementary school that year and two years later they saw each other once again. Now, since they were both in middle school they began to speak more to one another. However, as destiny had it Jose would graduate that year, and then they would not see each other again until highschool. When suddenly in the middle of Denise’s last year in middle school, Jose came by after school to see her and soon it became a sweet routine. After school, Denise knew Jose would be coming to see her and it all just evolved from there. ❤️ Though we have more stories, fun, sweet and silly ones too! We are just so happy and thankful we will get to share this new moment with you! We love you all, can’t wait to see you!
