Well now, where to start.

Many old friends and followers on here know Me and Cricket518 have been madly in love for quite some time now, we had even been told to get a room on occasion by more than one watcher so the short story is we did (get a room that is) and it was in Gatlinburg TN, more on that shortly.

A little background now:
Cricket and I had each put up a profile on Match.Com as we were tired of the games and playing around that is involved when looking for someone to simply connect with that has the same likes and dislikes etc and all that dating crap. We were the top matches in our area as said the great computor gods in cyberland so we contacted each other. That led to numerous emails and IM's (Instant messages) and ultimately a face to face date of sorts. The date is another entire journal post of a story as it winded up but lets just say it turned out a great night and was on Dec 16th 05. Time passed and she and I drifted in and out of each others lives for a short period of time. Seemed that the want was there, just not the timing. But by early spring she and I had become good friends and began to get together for supper and a movie nights and we began to get quite involved with a 3d chat place known as IMVU. It was a fun yet hokey time for us both. We were each designers there and were selling our wares hand over fist. Not to get rich on but to support our own 3d monkey we had by now aquired. Again taking a long story and making it short. IMVU Pooched My account and lost the records of sales and other such goodies and objects I owned so we left there. (Now backtracking again) During this time frame over the summer of 06 we were just begining to get into dA heavily so of course when I found out about daz studio and began to experiment with it cricket rather reluctantly followed along, or I followed her along hell who knows now, the point is we winded up here and still making things and meeting for movie and 3d nights on the weekends. Seeing a noticable connection yet folks? By July and My birthday we were together as much as we could be and when I came over for B-Day dinner and gifts, the beautiful ms c gave Me a key to her heart and to her place and within another week or two we were living together. We have been best friends, confidants, cuddle buddies and cohorts in crime ever since.

Now for the wedding:
We went up to Pigeon Forge TN to meet a mutual on-line friend who was to be C's maid of honor as well back last oct and while there we figured out that the wedding I wanted (having proposed sometime earlier) may never happen. Being the dreamer I am of course I was waiting till we could go to some exotic island or mountaintop overlooking the blue lagoon or some such paradise and then be married by some pagan priest...Ok a bit on the dramatic side I know but you get the idea. Anyway life, economy, and the general climate of the world would inevitably prevent such fairytale wedding. *Shrugs* She and I are basic and humble folks I assure you so while we were in TN we found a chapel there that did horseback weddings as well as the traditional type to be held in thier lil chapel of Lurveeeeeeeee. We went to the places website when we returned home and contacted them, oh and might I add thier website needed some work and "ehem" I happen to do website design so a deal was struck a date was set that being the 3 year anniversary of our first date and lo and behold, we had family and friends on horseback upon a mountaintop in the blue ridge mountains of tennesee in the rain and a wedding took place...Not a dry eye in the house I assure you.

So I just wanted to invite all our friends (Family) here to check some of the photos out in My scraps and be sure to drop by if you have known her as well and give her a hug too. You here have so much more to do with our finding each other and fostering the loving relationship we share now as husband and wife than you will ever fully know I assure you.


dA stay true to your core values and you will always have people like us here, lose them along the way and you lose the people who truly make dA what it is.

Peace out
