In 1996 a man named George Bingham called me and asked if I would like to go out with him. Let's rewind a little.... Years before this my brother, Daniel, worked with George and told me that if George didn't have a girlfriend he would fix us up. Well, I worked at Target in 1996 with a woman whose husband worked with George. She said that George had recently ended a long relationship he had been in and she thought we would be a good couple. So she gave him my number. And now we are back to the beginning of the story.
We met in July of 1996, he met me at Target when I got off of work. We went to a movie and then to Arby's to eat. I had no idea that day that my life was gonna change so quickly. By October he asked me to marry him. And In January of 1997 I became Mrs. George Bingham! Yes that is 6 months after we met.
The funny thing about this is that most people that knew me though I had lost my mind. But it is now 12 years later and we are happier than I could have ever imagined! I love this man with my whole heart, soul and mind.
I am posting a few pictures for you to see.

Hi Shellie, Happy anniversary to both of you! I really tried to comment you with something cute and fun - a post from me - and a comment on your myspace page. BUT...........thanks to my dial-up service, I was unsuccessful in getting anything to cooperate with me. Suffice it to say that I love you and I am so, so thankful that after all of these years our kids are in pictures together just like we were way back when...that your family and my family are like one big family...that you are like my sister...and most of all, that God has brought us so very far. Wow, once again I'm overwhelmed! Congratulations to both of you again, and I hope that you have had a wonderful day together. See you tomorrow morning.
