Blog 3: Family Story

My mom and dad first met on a blind date. Mom was living in Florida and had just ended a relationship with another guy. Dad was in the Marines and had just got stationed in a nearby base. They both knew a mutual couple, Dad's fellow comrade in the Marines and Mom's friend, Regina, who was engaged with that friend. Although Mom at that time was getting tired of dating, Regina managed to convince her to go on this blind date. They had a date at one of the nice restaurants in town and apparently while Mom thought he was just "a nice guy," Dad was convinced already that she was the one. He called her the next day and six months later, they got engaged at the restaurant where they first met.

(I apologize for the late post, I misread the schedule.)
