How Erika and Jon met…

Many moons ago, a girl named Erika “friended” a boy named Jon.

See?  Meeting someone online can work!  Erika and Jon met on Myspace when she added him as a friend . Over a month’s time of e-mails back and forth, they finally met  at the Bada Lounge (now Umi Sake House – one of their favorite sushi restaurants).  Jon’s friends (Austin and Charles) kept Erika’s friends (Annjie and Jenney) entertained while Jon and Erika talked, danced and sang through the night.   A sweet kiss on the cheek sent Erika off into the night with her friends.

Just as Erika was arriving home that night, she got a call from Jon –  “did you get home safe?” and Erika was hooked.

A week passed before their official first date – a home cooked meal by Jon, followed by a movie. Erika and Jon have been together since!

Over the years, they’ve bonded over music, movies and The Sounders.  Sounders ’til they die!
