Pinch me...am I dreaming?

Ok so here is the story of me and this dang good lookin man :-) So the week of my surgery back in September my cousin Jenny's husband Kempton told Grant (his friend and old college buddy from the Dorms) that he should request me as a friend on facebook. Well as you can imagine I was completely out of it being all drugged up on pain pills that I did not check my email or get on facebook for almost a whole week and when I did it was very briefly and I really don't remember anything I did or said. Anyway a few weeks later when I was more coherent I get a message from Kempton saying "what's up with all the rejection girl I'm trying to hook a cousin up?" Then I realize that I have a friend request from Grant which of course I accepted and after that we started chatting a little back and forth on facebook and then the more we chatted the more I realized just how much I wanted to get to know him even more, so we then exchanged numbers and started talking on the phone. I talked to Jenny and Kempton one night and they told me that they were flying out here from Florida for Thanksgiving and that they wanted to bring Grant to Thanksgiving dinner at my Grandma's for us to meet. Well after talking to Grant a few times on the phone, we decided we didn't want to wait clear til then to meet so he asked me out and we went on our first date a few weeks ago. We then hung out both Saturday and Sunday night of this past weekend and well he is coming to Thanksgiving dinner in just a few days of course where he will meet quite a bit of the fam :-)

I can't even begin to describe what I am feeling right now... I do feel like I am in some sort of a dream. Can this really be a reality for me? But I can say this I seriously cannot stop smiling right now... I am oh so happy to be dating this wonderful man, who is so amazing! He has been through such a lot in his life and well he is just so positive and happy and such a great example. I feel so lucky just to be around him and we just get a long so well. We have so much in common and we can talk to each other so easily! I seriously feel like I have known him forever! Anyway what more can I say except for life is good and I am oh so thankful this year for friendships and new beginnings!
