Couple finds each other in old home movies!

This is a pretty incredible coincidence . . . it makes me want to watch all the old video tapes my parents took when I was a kid.

Ryan and Jourdan Spencer of Scotch Plains, New Jersey met on a blind date back in 2004, and got married in 2007.  And a few years ago, they were checking out some old home movies from Jourdan’s childhood.

They were watching one from July of 1988 . . . Jourdan was just a little girl at the time, visiting an amusement park in Langhorne, Pennsylvania called Sesame Place.  And while her dad was filming her, a skinny kid with glasses randomly walked into the frame.

It was RYAN.

They grew up about 45 minutes apart, and had even talked about going to Sesame Place as kids . . . but they had no idea they were there on the same DAY in 1988, or that they’d ever crossed paths.

They just showed their three kids the tape . . . and they say the tape is making them both believe in FATE.  You can check it out on YouTube . . . it’s called “Jourdan and Ryan Spencer home movie“.
