the Kenney courtship saga continues...

Well, now that the computer is up and going again, I see no reason to further delay the story of how Cindy met Alex. Last note we mentioned in the story was the point that Cindy has come to refer to as when we "hooked up."
Me being the impatient natural man that I am, insisted as strongly as possible for Cindy to cut her trip to Kentucky short so she could come home and we could get to really solidifying our relationship so it seemed more realistic. Eventually we comprimised that she could stay out for the full duration until August, but she needed to come home for a visit in June.

It was a pretty interesting time in my life to say the least. School had just let out a few weeks previous, I had an interview for the job that I now have, and was cutting back on the hours at my original job at the movies. We had a big family reunion at the beach houses in Cali. And it all ended, with Cindy and I flying to Utah on the same day. I didn't get in until really late though, so we didn't get to see eachother till the next morning.
I remember that morning being a blur. I woke up early enough to preen myself more than any date I'd been on in probably an entire year before. We had already made the plan that I would go to her house that morning and she would make me waffles for breakfast. I made the long drive from my house to her house for the first, but most certainly not the last, time. I pulled up to the house, and felt a huge anticipation swelling up inside of me. Here it was, this girl whom I'd already been 'dating' for a month and a half, and I was about to see her for the first time in a light other than co-worker. I rang the doorbell and she answered it looking incredibly beautiful, she pushed the door open for me to come in, then turned away and said something to the effect of, "I can't find my phone."
Very eager not let the moment pass, I just said in a stern and insistent, yet calm voice, "HEY." She stopped dead, turned about face, ran at me and gave me a huge hug. We still joke about her turning away from me the first time we saw each other on a personal level.

That trip in June was incredible. Without disclosing details, we had our first date, our first kiss, our first I love you (exactly a year ago today) and our first conversation about being married, over the next 4 days, not necessarily in that order. By the time she left, we were both completely infatuated with one another, and even though it wasn't set in stone, we were both pretty keen on the idea of spending the rest of our lives together.
