My Personal Matchmaker

June 1992

The summer between 9th and 10th grade, I had a wicked bad crush on Scott Sorenson. I was pretty shy and would do nothing about it. Erica wouldn't stand for that. She insisted on organizing a "neighborhood" bar-b-que and inviting a bunch of friends over for the event. That would have to include Scott because he lived in the neighborhood. It didn't hurt that she had a crush on his best friend Jon Pugmire. The night was fun and if nothing else we were able to get this picture out of it. =)

Scott and I didn't go on to be a hot item, but a friendship was formed that night that lasted through high school with him and it all started because Erica always found ways to bring me out of my shell (whether I liked it or not!) =)

Her match making didn't stop there (if you all know who I ended up marrying), but there were MANY others in between. Lots of those stories to come...

Thanks for always forcing me to have the courage to talk to the cute boys...

Amie =)
