JONO AND TRACIE

There have been a few tags going around so I thought I'd join the fun. I'm going to combine a couple of them instead of making individual posts. If any of you read these, post the same thing on your blog!



1. Where did you meet your husband? My mom was working at night at Hi-Roc Bowling Alley and Jono also worked there at night.

2. What was the first thing said? I went in to Hi-Roc one night to help mom finish her work. I was cleaning the grill at the snack bar and Jono sat down at the snack bar and asked me if I had painted my pants on I turned around and told him where he could go and what he could do to himself.


3. What was your first date? I also started working at the bowling alley and everynight after work Jono and I would go to Oma's for a slice.


4. How long did you date? This is a hard question we dated 1 1/2 years and then we lived together for 5 years.

5. First kiss? It was in Theresa's Camaro, where else, in front of the bowling alley.

6. Where did you get engaged? We were just discussing this last night. It was right around Christmas of '95. Jono had told mom that he was going to ask me to marry. I wish she was alive to talk to because for whatever reason Mom gave me this information. Jono says that explains my reaction.
We had moved back to Saratoga and again Jono was working part time at the bowling alley. I went to pick him up and he told me he couldn't get me a Christmas present. I was like that's o.k.. We stopped at Oma's for a pizza on the way home. I was starving and sat down on the couch pizza on my lap, slice in hand, grease dripping down my arm. Jono goes in to the bedroom comes out and gets down on his knee in front of me. I start crying, this is what jono thought was weird, I knew. He asked me if I would marry him.

7. When did you know you loved each other? Jono says he fell in love with me Immediatly. He was certain after the kiss in the camero. I took a little longer to relieze what I was feeling. Jono asked me to be his girlfriend exclusivly about 6 months after we started to date. I said No. That weekend we went on a date and we were walking down broadway holding hands all lovey dovey and this chick comes up and says to Jono "Hi, Why haven't you called Me." AWKWARD. I wanted to claw off her face. Jono was like "oh, I will." The next day Mom and I were driving down the ave. of the pines and I was telling her what happened. She said why do you care. You didn't want to date exclusivly and I was like Jono is mine I love him. There it was. So I told him.

8. What does your ring look like? This is a weird story. When I was in High School I bought a ring in Lake George for like $2.00. It was gold, with a large diamond in the middle sourronded by little diamonds. I wore it everywhere untill right before I moved to New York it got stepped on Jono never saw this ring nor did he know about it but this is exactly what my ring looks like except of course it's real. I have the old one to compare. It's fate. Jono's ring is a Gold band.


8. Where did you get married? Spa State Park, Saratoga Springs, New York.


9. How did the reception go? It was fun. Very informal. Almost everyone changed right after the ceremony into shorts. We played volleyball. Ate good food wings, salads stuff like that, Drank, Danced we had a DJ. Great Party.
