I am going to change this a little and do my first loves because that will be more fun. So let's start...
My VERY first love would have to be Jordan Knight. I was super obsessed with New Kids on the Block when I was younger. I use to know all the words to every song...ok who am I kidding....I STILL know all the words to every song. I use to have the pillowcases, the lunch box, the dolls, the CD's..EVERYTHING was NKOTB!! My Mom made my sister take me to a concert when I was little and I was in heaven. I went to both concerts when they came to Cincinnati. 2 years ago when they reunited and I found out they were going to Cleveland(it was the closest they were going to be to Cincinnati) ...I called my sister...mind you I was living in Arizona at the time...and told her I had a road trip for us planned.
She was hesitant in asking where we were going to go. I told her we were going to Cleveland to relive our youth and see New Kids!! She began laughing hysterically till she realized I was being serious. She agreed and I was sooo excited. Her not so much, but she was willing to go with me!! The line was drawn when I loaded up my Ipod with all New Kids and tried to play it all the way from Cincy to Cleveland!!! It was honestly a GREAT concert and we had so much fun. There were sooo many people there and it sold out quickly. They are going back out on tour this Spring and would love to go again!! (WINK WINK)
Then as I got older I set my sights on someone a little more my age..well sort of!! Haha. Kenyon Martin...oh sooo cute!! I don't even really know what I saw in him to be honest but when he was in college and playing basketball for the Bearcats I went to lots of game and was madly in love. I remember how you use to be able to go down to the locker room after the games and get autographs and I would go down there all the time just to see him. I remember my Aunt going down there once and getting a picture with him and I wish I could find it because it was the funniest picture. She had a smile ear to ear and the look on his face was priceless..like Umm what's going on here!! I went to a couple games in Indy when he played for the Nets. 
Then we moved to Colorado and he was playing for the Nuggets. So when Tim got back from Iraq we went to a game and when we got to the game we found out he was suspended!! I was soo upset. So luckily for us they made it to the playoffs that year and we were able to get tickets and went back!! Yeah!!!The of course we have the High School boyfriend, Craig. You know the one that you had to be with and when you broke up you thought your world was falling apart. It's funny when you look back on it beacuse it's high school! But everything is so dramatic when you are in high school. We were together for 5 long years. Well off and on.....you know how high school loves are!! HAHA. To this day he is still one of my best friends which people find weird. But when you are with someone that long and you grow up with them it's hard not to be.
Then we have my one true love...(puking..haha) Tim and I met on a blind date but we were with friends and it was awkward. Then the next time we saw each other I took my brother to a basketball game and he thought I was on another date. Luckily we have a pushy friend who knew we were made for each other and got us together again. We now look back at it and laugh how could he have thought that!! But as soon as we started going on dates by ourselves we knew that we both had met someone special. We instantly clicked. Now almost 8 years later it's amazing how much you can love someone. With him deploying all the time we have learned to try and make the most of what we have. You learn so much about each other when you are always apart and and take each day as a blessing. Looking back at all my "first loves" they have nothing on Tim!!
