the newest addition

Well, here we go y'all. One of the joys of being a "young" blogger is having the decision of when it's the right time to introduce the love interest in your life to your "followers". BTW I feel awkward calling y'all followers because I always think of Jesus. So you are now considered friends (although I'm sure Jesus referred to his followers as friends too). Anyway, on with the point.

Being a single blogger is a little different. You meet a boy and how do you know when you are supposed to blog about him? Does it have to be serious? What if things don't work? So, I have made the executive decision that this one is worth introducing to my "blog friends". Allow me to give you my side of the story.

It was another Friday night in Montgomery and I was out and about with friends. I turn around and there is a boy, not too much taller than me standing there, in my face...

Him: Hey, I'm Kelso

Her: Brooke

Him: I saw you standing by yourself and thought I'd come talk to you......... aaaannnddd my friends dared me to ask for your number.

Her: So you are talking to me because your friends dared you to?

Him: Yes... I mean no, well, I think you're cute.

Her: umm, ok. Thank you?

Him: So about that number?!?!

Her: ((dishes the digits))

A week goes by she is sitting on the couch giggling with a girlfriend when her phone vibrates. It's him. They text back and forth because that is how our generation rolls (might I add I HATE that). She is rude to him via text because she is turned off by his lack of effort.

Another week passes. He attempts to text her again. This time he is a little more smart, he calls to invite her on a date. She hesitantly accepts the offer. He invites her to come to his family's property in west Alabama with directions to wear closed toe shoes and jeans. She walks out of the house in a polo and toms. He sends her back inside to put on a t-shirt. They load up in the truck and ride.... for 45 minutes they ride... and talk.

They arrive to their location and he loads up a four wheeler with a gun and some corn. She wonders if she is going to be the next 48 hours story. Off they go. Riding all around the woods of west Alabama on the perfect Sunday afternoon in early October. They put out cameras, corn and even shoot a possum. By the end of the day they end up sitting next to a pond, talking.

Once the sun starts to set they head back to the truck to load everything up and head back in town to eat pizza at a local restaurant. He takes her home and the date comes to an end.

The end.

Sike.

The beginning.
