Our Love Story

The day I met Kenny Owens, will be a day I will NEVER forget! It was in June of 2004; June 19th to be exact! I was going through a tough time in my life & needed to just get out! So...a couple of my friends/cousins & I decided to ride to, what was then, Gametime to "parking lot pimp" LOL! "Parking lot pimp" is what we did when we decided to just "chill" in the parking lot of the club and not go in! I know...sounds a little crazy...but that's what we did when I was 19 years old LOL!! First of all, I have never been the type of girl to “holla” at a dude, but this particular night, I was in rare form & was having so much fun! So, I spotted this SUPER CUTE, light-skinned dude with braids that had on a green jersey! I was determined to get “the boy in the green jersey” phone number & was not leaving Greenville until I got it!! Long story short, I got his number in the parking lot of Gametime & we became friends. We went on one date & that was it! We were just what I said…friends...no more, no less! We carried on this friendship for about three years off & on...I thought he was one of the best friends I’d ever had! We talked about EVERYTHING! In October of 2007, I ran into Kenny in his uncle’s club, Alley Gator’s. We had not talked or seen each other in a long time! I agreed to go visit him one Saturday night after that just to “chill” & that “chill” turned into something serious! I never expected it to go as far as it did, but you cannot run from true love when it finds you. We started out “talking” & made it “official” on January 18, 2008. A couple of weeks shy of our 4 year anniversary, Kenny asked me to be his wife! Another day I will NEVER forget…December 25, 2011…a very special Christmas Day!!! I wrote the following words in a poem to Kenny ("Kay") for Valentine’s Day in 2008 that sums up the love I have for the Love of My Life, my fiance: “…The key to my heart,I thought I threw away. Some how, some way you got it, And now I’m here to stay. I almost missed out…The thought brings chills over me. But timing and patience,I learned is the key. One last time, I’ve fallen in love. But this time I truly believe You’re my angel sent from above.”
Enjoy our Love Story!!!

Making Accomplishments...

Since the last time I posted, I have accomplished a lot!  These last couple of weeks have been so exciting!  On Friday, February 24th, Vernice Hammett brought me a disc with all of our edited Engagement Photos!  I could not wait to get to Kay so that we could open it & look at the pictures!  The night before I received the disc, they posted our E-Session on their blog...enjoy some of our pics below!!!



They had the disc wrapped so cute!!

Also, on that day, Kay & I went to Men's Wearhouse in Haywood Mall to pick out the tuxedos...fun, fun, fun day!!  We did get all of the tuxedos & colors picked out for all of the guys that are in the wedding.  That makes two things checked off of our long list!  Woo Hoo...finally getting some checks!!!

After a long day...I was in much need of a date with my Future...luckily he had planned a date night & I did not know it!  We went to Hollywood 20 Regal Cinemas to see Good Deeds (a Tyler Perry Movie).  A surprise date...makes our dates that much more special!!! :-)
