Our paths crossed without each other knowing in 1999, and some may say it’s fate that our paths crossed again so that we could  meet and fall in love in 2002. 

    Our worlds collided when we became co-workers at Met Life Insurance Company.  It was sheer coincidence that Chris was transfered to the Tewksbury office where Kim was working.  Conveniently enough, Chris’ desk was situated at the front of the aisle where the water cooler was.    Anyone who knows Chris, knows that he has a knack for water - cooler talk!  He can make a friend and know all of their deepest darkest secrets in a moments notice!  Needless to say, that is how our story began.

    In the beginning we mostly talked about our weekend adventures (which sometimes entailed information on other horrible dating experiences).  Eventually, other co-workers would tease Kim and tell her that Chris seemed smitten by her.  Kim didn’t believe it for the longest time.  Soon enough, Kim would start to look forward to Monday mornings just to shoot the breeze with Chris.  It was then that Kim realized that maybe there was something there worth trying. 

    More time passed,  talking became flirting and Kim was wondering if Chris would ever ask her out on a date!  So finally, with a bit of convincing  from friends, she asked him.  She posed that she NEEDED to have a date for the Krystal Ball.  He obliged, not knowing what he was getting himself into.

    For a while they attempted to keep the relationship quiet, but found that people could notice a difference in each of them.  They were glowing with new-found-love and it was impossible for people not to see!

    To this day they grow and love more and more as a couple...

    So now, years later, it is time to take the next step in their lives together.  On Christmas Morning of 2007, Chris proposed to Kim.  Once again they are beaming with joy and excitement of anticipation for what the future holds for them.
