6 year Memorial Day
Today is mine and John's six year Memorial Day. And yes we know Memorial Day was back in May. Six years ago today John and I officially started dating. When we were about to hit the one year mark, John told me that he thought it was stupid and cheesy when couples who are dating celebrated an "anniversary." He thought those should be saved for marriage. So John decided to call June 20 our Memorial Day and we celebrated it each year that we were dating. We even remembered the year after we got married, but it is getting harder and harder to remember. October 8 seems sufficient enough. But indeed it is a very special day for John and me. We went to homecoming our junior year of high school. We were very good friends and turned into best friends but did not start dating until the summer after our freshman year of college. We hung out so much and talked on the phone every day freshman year that we might as well have been dating. So Happy Six year Memorial Day to us! I have loved every minute.
