Fondest dating memories with your spouse!

Ok...well, this is along the same lines of this whole kind of a get-to-know you theme....



What are your fondest dating memories with your spouse?



1. Working with him. I was doing an internship and he was doing a clerkship when we met...and we used to sneak out to go for long lunches together...when he had call, I'd come in and stay in the call room with him.



2. Traveling...we lived in germany then, so we could hop a train to wherever we wanted, really....we have such great memories of those early years!



3. The Military Base! I worked on base at the end of my exchange year in a little store called "Pizza Stop" and when he was done with a shift he'd take the bus out and sit with me while I worked....then after I closed the store, we'd walk the 5 miles home and hold hands and talk. I had a military ID and so we'd shop on base (which was just amazing to him because the prices were so low!) and we also got to go to the US movie theatre on the weekends.....We'd do our laundry at the laundromat (ahhh, the romance!) and then pop over to the theatre for a show.

Well, as most of you know, he was gone for most of our dating life so I guess my fondest memories would be of the times we were together (it certainly wouldn't be the month he and I shared my 515 square foot condo~!) I was able to visit him in Seattle, California and San Antonio (twice). He flew home once to see me.



He was terrible on the phone (and still is) so I guess the emails were also an important part. Not surprising since that's how we met!



I supose the supreme memory was his medical school graduation. It was so amazing seeing all of them in their uniforms! They graduated in their gowns with the bottom half of the uniform on- then after receiving the diploma they changed in to the top half of the uniform for the promotion ceremony. It was at Constitution Hall in DC.



Of course the fact that we were getting married the next day might have helped make it such an amazing day!

1. Playing miniature golf -- still a big favorite of ours!



2. Eating at Olive Garden -- my husband, in his younger years, was a swimmer/distance runner and he has that long, lean build that never puts on weight. When he was in training, he was very hard to "fill up" and those breadsticks managed to do the trick!



3. Going to concerts/musicals/plays -- my husband and I were both music majors and we would go to a lot of classical music concerts and other kinds of performances in Indianapolis the year we were engaged. It has been a lot harder to keep that habit up in the past few years!

We lived about 30 yards from each other on our college campus. Every night I'd end up over at his place with a bunch of our friends talking until very, very late. Texas is always fairly warm (except for Dec-Feb), so we'd have all the windows in the place open listening to all of the crickets.



We were fairly silly as well - on our campus lived a LOT of rabbits (we're talking many dozens if not hundreds). These things would come out at night in droves and we'd pass by them when we went walking at night or while going to evening classes. We were so goofy we'd chase the things (actually it was a campus hobby for people to try to catch the things with their bare hands - I know, I know, stupid and dangerous) and managed to almost catch one a few times (poor bunnies!).



Oddly enough, a fond dating memory I share with Kristen is travelling. Jon had travelled a bunch in his life (Mexico, Australia, just about every state in the Union, etc) and I hadn't. So, he took pity on me and we travelled - the poor college student way (ie no hotels no car rentals).



Jon, and his roommate and I would stay up very late at night watching movies on their old, caved-in sofa. We all almost ALWAYS ended up falling asleep this way. I would often wake myself up at 2am after falling asleep watching something next to Jon and Richard and haul myself the 90 yards or so back to my place (Jon, being a gentleman, always walked me home).
