I love his music still today. It's so neat to see how God brought you and your husband together and set those bonds and memories. It has been a journey, since that first post, of God using events, people, and place to where He needs us to be.Aspiring Mom2threehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13823281380825825244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-292398111323195424.post-2082893956645389132010-09-04T00:04:50.868-07:002010-09-04T00:04:50.868-07:00As always, a wonderful trip down memory lane.

My husband has all his photos from those years, and everyone knows he's the more sentimental of the two of us. LOL, funny, isn't it?<br /><br />I'm glad you're doing all this reminiscing.

I was in my late 20's before I met my husband and I always find 'high school sweetheart' stories so touching (although technically your husband was older and you were the one in high school). Thanks for sharing your story with us.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14772596888093079960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-292398111323195424.post-83451458402972012592010-09-02T11:39:53.866-07:002010-09-02T11:39:53.866-07:00Stories with lots of pictures... my very favorite ...Stories with lots of pictures... my very favorite kind!!<br /><br />Yours have been amazing!

It was the day<br />I broke up with my boyfriend.<br />My sister loved Elvis and had<br />his pictures all over the walls<br />of the bedroom we shared. I woke<br />up every morning to his face.<br />Maybe that's why I never could<br />get into him--overload by age<br />ten. But Linda Ronstadt was a<br />favorite for many years.<br />Blessings,<br />SandySandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10888547092318964711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-292398111323195424.post-6468207332811214572010-09-02T09:58:06.812-07:002010-09-02T09:58:06.812-07:00dear janette,

I was tickled pink when he first asked me out. <br /><br />This was so cute.

I was al...I remember the day Elvis died very well. I was always one of his biggest fans (even though it wasn't really considered "cool" to be, haha) and I was horrified. It was a hot strangly humid and overcast day in Aug. in California and it added to the twilight feel of the day. I was newly married and learning to wall paper that day and I left it all hanging weirdly on the wall while I cried, haha...I enjoyed your memories soo much. I think back in those days it wasn't as shocking to have an "older" boyfriend (though yours was REALLY older, haha) but my first boyfriend was 4 years older than me too. It ended up being a disaster though. He was NOT a Christian (mistake #1 ~ in the midst of MANY mistakes) and he pressured me ridiculously. Looking back I can't imagine what my parents were thinking. Your relationship was soo obviously meant to be and God has soo blessed it. What a wonderful feeling to have such GOOD memories to look back on from that time in your life. Have a good day.

I was working in a grocery store, and a man came in crying and I asked him what was wrong and he said, "The King is Dead."<br />I stood there trying to figure out what king. Then he said Elvis. The whole day was spent with people coming in the store, mourning.
