How We Met 11.29.08

Andrea & Mitchell met the Saturday after Thanksgiving in 2008 at a bar called The Loop in Minneapolis.  The very first conversation began when Mitchell ordered a Miller Lite to the disdain of Andrea's taste, to which she replied, "Miller Lite who drinks that!?!"  After some lovely conversation and a  trip to the dance floor, Andrea reluctantly gave her number to Mitchell after only three attempts..
The first date took place the following Thursday evening. Andrea and Mitchell enjoyed a nice evening at the Guthrie Theater for a showing of "A Christmas Carol" and then drinks at several local establishments.  And the rest is history....


Andrea's Favorite Things About Mitch:

  • He likes to cook AND do the dishes!
  • Buys me flowers "just because"
  • He enjoys drinking red wine with the girls
  • He frequently acts like he's a 12 year old boy (this can be good and bad)
  • Hey enjoys going to plays, orchestra performances, and listening to NPR and Jazz music (I like to joke he should have been born in the 1940s) 
  • He can talk about anything with anyone
  • That he can't just leave me a normal voicemail, he always has to do something weird, or sing something weird....
  • His laugh and smile are contagious =)
  • He loves to DANCE , especially at weddings, when he "tries" to break dance.  Check out this YouTube clip at the 49 second mark when my dad pushes Mitch into the "break dance circle" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXGlci-tsxA
  • His passion for the outdoors
  • His cute nose
  • The way he always knows how to make me smile
