In April of 1997, Jeff had just finished his active duty tour for the United States Marine Corps. I was taking night classes at Salt Lake Community College. In the previous post by Jeff it mentions me locking my keys in my car and Jeff coming to the rescue at the Maverick store just down the street from the Jordan River Temple. We started dating...and the rest is history. It's fun for me to mention that we soon found that our parents were in the same Ward, we initially had no idea. He proposed at my parents home in October of 97, in front of my family.

Wedding invite pictures 
This is one of my favorites, taken on the day we were married in South Jordan, Utah. I remember really wanting pictures with snow and that's why we chose a January wedding. It made planning a wedding so soon a little stressful. It was dry as a bone..no snow! It all came together very nicely and I will be forever grateful for all my friends and family.
But, really one of my favorite days and because we've had some amazing years together, I have to mention...the day we were sealed as an Eternal Family November 1999, in the Jordan River Temple. We chose this Temple because it was not far from where we first met. Here we are with Jarrin, only a couple of months old. I still get emotional thinking about how much I love my Eternal companion my best friend, Jeff. Thank you so much for 11 plus great years honey!!

Happy Anniversary! I love your wedding pictures, so cute!
It's been so long since I've seen you. Well, almost 10 years (March 6th, my wedding anniversary). You guys sure have changed. What happened to your red hair, it looks so much darker now? Do you do that on purpose? Miss Ya.
Thank you all so much for your kind words!! We HAVE changed! I changed my hair color about 18 months ago..after my mom died 3 yrs ago, my hair started falling out so I started coloring it to thicken what I had. I kept getting tons of compliments so I kept it dark. I miss that beautiful red! I was just thinking on slowly going back what do ya think? Jeff has drastically changed due to health problems this past year..life has left it's mark on our bodies!!! ;) LOVE ALL of you!!!
On our wedding day, I think Jeff looked prettier then I did..really I do! He's so cute!!
