The day it ALL started!!
They both have so many mutual friends that it was bound to happen. The spring of 2009, just Elicia Joy Bridgers had just moved back to Carteret County, NC we FINALLY met. Thank you Chris Galiza! Chris an old family friend of Elicia had asked her to go out in the boat one Saturday with him and some of his friends. His friends boat that we went out on happen to be Benny's cousin's boat, Matt Frost. On the way to the fish house, Homer Smith, where the boat was Chris mentioned that this guy, Benny, had made t-shirts that said I <3 day drinking! Elicia just thought that was the funniest thing and had to have one! They stopped by Matt's house and picked them up! When they arrived at the fish house Chris introduced Benny as the guy who made the t-shirts. Immediately Elicia ran and jumped into Benny's arms!
Benny and Elicia like to say the he just swept her off her feet!!
From that day on they were really good friends and also very stubborn because it took them a few weeks to accept fate and finally give a relationship a try. They have been together ever since! And loving every minute of it!
