~How we met~ Kailei and I went to Kankakee Community College together. We both ended up taking an Abnormal Psychology class together during my Sophomore year. While the class truly lived up to its name, it was the start of something great. About half way through the semester the seating arrangement changed and I was sitting behind the worlds biggest Chicago Cubs fan….ugh! I made sure she knew who the best team in baseball was though (The St. Louis Cardinals, of course!). The semester ended and neither of us expected to see each other again. I continued taking classes online and through KCC while moving on to my Bachelor’s Degree. After the completion of my summer 2012 courses. I decided I needed to celebrate so I got ahold of my good friend (and apparently match maker) Megan. We decided to go to the Kankakee Speedway to watch some dirt track racing. Megan had texted one of her friends from some class that ALWAYS went to the Friday night races, so we met up with her. Unbeknownst to me, there was the worlds biggest Cubs fan again! After a night of attempting to talk over the race cars we again parted way but this time we knew we would stay in touch. After a few days of talking we decided to met up for a very romantic date at the AT&T store (seriously, you can’t go in there and spend less than an hour!) followed by a walk at Perry Farm and a supper at B-Dubs. Later that night I finally asked if she wanted to make it official and our lives both changed from there!
……for the better of course!
