Sweetheart Tag


Sweetheart Tag

1. Where did you first meet? Todd and I first meet my freshmen year in college at Cal-State Northridge. Todds older brother and Todd went to one of my basketball games and after the game they came to my dorm room and I remember going outside to talk to them and seeing this really tall red headed kid.


2. What do you remember about him? I thought Todd was cute but goofy and that he would be a good friend for me. He always made me laugh and I enjoyed being around him. Todd was always up for something and I liked that about him and he was very easy going.


3.Who asked who out first? And where did you go on your first date? Todd asked me out a couple of times before I finally said yes. It took about 2 years for me to finally agree to go out with him. I was never really wanting a real relationship at the time and I was just having fun with my friends and enjoying my college experience. Todd would get mad when he asked me out and I would be like sure but the next week he found out I had another boyfriend. I'm so glad that he was patient and waited for me. When we finally did go out on our first date it was really nice, he took me to a restuarant called Paradise Cove in Malibu that is right on the water and I remember having a really good time and really starting to see Todd more than a friend and thinking to myself what a dummy I have been for not going out with him sooner.


4. What was your favorite thing to do while dating? Our favorite thing to do while dating would be to hang out with our friends and go out to do things. We would go to the beach, play basketball, beach volleyball, go skateboarding go to saddle ranch or howl at the moon with the friends. Our ritual on Sunday night would usually be Todd and myself watching a movie and having popcorn. That was something that I really loved to do with him.


5. When was your first kiss? Our first kiss is kind of quliche because it was New Years and we went out to Malibu with our friends to a party. I knew that he wanted to kiss me at mid-night and I was nervous and thinking hmmm maybe not. But when the clock struck 12 we looked at each other and kissed!!! It was great and I for sure felt the sparks flying. Then just Todd and myself went to the beach and stayed their till 4 in the morning. Which was great except I had basketball practice at 8 in the morning the next day. But, it was okay I did not mind at all.


6. Who said I love your first? I always get nervous with the I love you stage because I had a guy say it to me in like 2 weeks and it freaked me out so I really liked Todd but I didn't want him to say it to me first because I knew he loved me :-) but I just wanted to make sure I was in the right place so I wouldn't get scared off. So one night we were in my room and we were cuddling and I leaned over and whispered into his ear that I loved him and I will never ever forget the expression on his face when I told that to him.


7. When did you realize you loved him? I realized I loved Todd on a Sunday night we were watching a movie and I had this overwhelming feeling about Todd and how much I cared about him. I realized that I never wanted to be without him and I always wanted him around. It was a feeling that I never experienced before and I just wanted to tell everyone how I felt about him and I was so proud that he was mine.


8. How did he propose? Todd proposed to me in the cutest way....I knew he had my ring but I was dying for him to give it to me before I left for home for Spring Break. He took me out on a Friday night to Paradise Cove and I was thinking okay this is it because this is where we went for our first date. But, no after dinner he was like lets go to the beach for a little bit and I was like sweet its going to be on the beach. When we got to the beach he brought out a blanket and a video camera and he was like I have something for you. It was two magnatic bears that kissed and I was like nice but dissapointed because I wanted my ring! Then he was like I am going to blindfold you and take you somewhere so he took me to the cliffs that over looked the city. It was gorgeous and he was like im getting tired lets go home. I was so sad :-(. But, then he was like wait I have two more spots to take you so he blindfolded me again and took me on a ride. The next stop I remember walking in and smelling the place thinking I know this place it is very familiar. Next thing I know he takes off my blindfold and he is down on one knee in the very center of my college basketball gym. I loved it because he knew what a special place basketball had for me and basketball is what brought me to him in Northridge. Also my two best girlfriends were in the hallway waiting for us. It was a great night.


9.What do you remember most about your wedding? I loved my wedding and it was one of my best days ever. I remember nothing going wrong that day and I was just relaxed and loved being with Todd and all of our family and friends. I didn't think I could love Todd more but on that day I was even more in love and I could not wait to be a Mrs. Todd Coleman. I could not have asked for a better day. The decorations, food, cake music everything to me was magical. I remember looking at Todd during the reception and thinking that is my man forever and I could not wait for us to start our lives together.


I always think it is fun to hear peoples stories because they are all different and it lets you get to know the other couple more.
