When and how did you first meet Chris?

At FiCB, I sat next to this girl who had the longest hair I had ever seen. That girl happened to be Chris and I introduced myself. Sparks flew and we hit it off instantly.

What is a favorite memory that you have about Chris?

After our last semester of finals, Chris and I were running really low on money. We literally had $5 to our names. We decided to sell our textbooks and expected to get at least $50 each back. We dreamt of dining on a satisfying and delicious dinner. Unfortunately, between our eight books, we only got a little over $5 combined! So we took that $5 and split a salad from Intermezzo.

Later that night, we couldn’t sleep in our room because our other roommate was packing to move out. So we had a little slumber party out in the living room. The floor was hard, it was freezing, and we were still hungry from our sad little dinner…but it was one of the most fun nights we’ve had together and friends and roommates.

What is something about Chris that people don't know, but you think they should?

She farts in her sleep…watch out Danny! I’m totally kidding!

Chris is a total beauty product junkie =)

What did you think when you first heard Chris was dating Danny?

Wahoooooo~!!!

When and how did you first meet Danny?

I first met Danny on a hot and sunny at the Grove in LA.

What did you think when they got engaged?

Danny is the luckiest guy in the world!

Seriously, how lucky of a guy do you think Danny is?

THE luckiest guy EVER!

What are you looking forward to on September 19?

Seeing Chris cry with tears of joy as Danny and Chris begin their new and exciting life together.

When and how did you first meet Chris?

I first met Chris first semester of our second year in college. I think we were walking back from a Friday night fellowship gathering. I remember thinking that she was really nice, but I didn’t really get to know her until after our second year when we studied abroad in Korea for a summer and semester.

What is a favorite memory that you have about Chris?

My favorite memories with Chris are the great times we had when we were in Korea. Chris, Becky, Janet, and I used to play what we call “The Pirate Game.” Anytime anyone lost, we would draw something on their face. It may not sound that exciting, but we had such a fun time.

What is something about Chris that people don't know, but you think they should?

People may already know this, but Chris has a lot of love and she shows it in many different ways (baking cookies for people, writing letters, etc.) She’s also very Martha Stewart-like in some ways…she can scrapbook, bake, cook, knit, make jewelry…just to name a few.

What did you think when you first heard Chris was dating Danny?

I was both surprised and happy. I guess I always knew it was only a matter of time before a great girl like Chris would be taken. ☺

When and how did you first meet Danny?

I think I’ve known Danny since the fifth grade, at least. We both grew up in Bakersfield (don’t laugh!), and I have vague memories of swimming in his backyard pool with his younger cousins. We never went to the same schools in Bakersfield, but our paths have crossed a lot over the years. We both went to Cal, we both worked at the Housing Rights Center (where Danny is currently working), and we both love Chris!

What did you think when they got engaged?

I was very happy to see that the both of them were happy. And I was also very happy that Chris was so excited to tell me about the proposal. Thumbs up to Danny for making her feel special that day because she is!

After all this though, I did think, “Who would have thought that a person I’ve known since the fifth grade would marry one of my close friends?” It’s a small, small world.

Seriously, how lucky of a guy do you think Danny is?

Very! Hahaha. I think I may have said that too quickly!

What are you looking forward to on September 19?

I look forward to seeing Danny and Chris enjoy every minute of their wedding!

mazel tov, matey!

Looks like our wedding isn't the only occasion to be celebrated on September 19.

It is Rosh Hoshanah, which is the Jewish New Year.

It is also International Talk Like a Pirate Day.

So, no hard feelings if you need to dress up like a Jewish pirate to celebrate with us.
