Day 3

My Idea of the Perfect First Date

Well, it has been quite some time since I had a first date. It seems that Ben and I's first date worked out really well so I'll just tell about that.

It was my Senior year and a girls choice dance was coming up. My friends and I decided we were not going to ask anyone and take a girls trip to Cedar and watch the football game and stay for a couple nights. Then a few days before the dance my dear friend Alicia, (love you leesh) that was coming with us decided to ask someone. Since we needed to come back for the dance anyway, I decided to ask someone. Ben had just moved to our school and I decided to ask him. We had met previously, but that is a completely different post. Ben said yes and almost 15 years later here we are.

We decided to go up Box Canyon that is in between Moroni and Ftn. Green. A bunch of us went together and had Dutch oven, went 4-wheeling. We had a great time and I actually have a great pic of Ben and I on this date. We then went to the dance and then after went and watched a movie. I think we got home around 3 a.m. My parents were less than thrilled with me and come to find out his aunt and uncle werent very happy either. Ben and I however really hit it off and aside from a little rough patch nearly 2 years later it has been he and I ever since!

My idea of a perfect date now, just spending time together having fun and enjoying each others company. Good food helps too.
