How the McElroy Family got started....

So Kyle and I first met in August 2006 at The Buzz in Scottsdale, Arizona. He was with a group of his friends, and I was with a group of mine. I pointed Kyle out to one of my friends and told her he was really cute and she told me to go ask him to dance but I was so nervous. As I busy dancing, she went up to him and told him I thought he was attractive and that I wanted to dance with him. He told her I looked "busy" because I was dancing with a couple of guys but she told him to just dance with me. He came up behind me and we started dancing and talking. I eventually asked him for his phone number, and he asked me to leave with him, but of course I didn't. Later the next week we hung out a few times, but I ended up moving to Wisconsin for the rest of my senior year. We talked till about Christmas then we stopped. Then in March 2007 I had a trip planned to go to Arizona for a few days so I decided to text him, and then we started talking on the phone again. I saw him twice when I was visiting, and decided that I had to have him. I moved back to Arizona in June after graduation. We moved in together and got engaged. He left for Navy boot camp the end of July and a week after he had left I found out I was pregnant. We got married December 22, 2007. We moved to Jacksonville, Fl because thats where the Navy sent us. We had our baby girl March 5, 2008. Savannah Marie McElroy. She is now 8 months old and we have almost been married a year.
