A blind date?! Awesome!

Andrew says our first meeting was sort of a blind date because I didn't have my lasik surgery yet. :) He also sends his best.

Congrats!!!! My 10 year seems pretty teeny next to this! April is good month to get married! I met Mr. French in a dark dive bar, so sort of like a blind date. :)
