Happy Anniversary

8 wonderful Years!!!

Chris and I met at BYU after I transferred down from Ricks. I moved into my brothers’ ward at Liberty Square. I went to church that first Sunday and watch Chris enter Sunday school my heart immediately jumped out of me. I didn’t believe at love at first sight but now I have to say I do. I truly was taken at the first moment I saw him and can’t wait to spend and eternity with him. Back to my story of us meeting. I started to get settled at BYU by getting involved with BYUSA and getting a calling in the ward as Primary secretary, then visiting my brother and found everything I did he would be there. I couldn’t speak around Chris. I have to say I must of learned how to since we are now married. He was in the primary also in BYUSA also chairing on the spring fling committee. Then he lived across from my brother’s apartment. We started to run together just as friends and went on our first date in the end of March and two weeks later we were engaged and married on June 6, 2000. Best choice I ever made.

Love ya, Chris!

I love LOVE stories! Congratulations you two! I must say that you are one of THE coolest couples I know, so I'm glad you found each other and fell in love! Thanks Rachel for all of your good words of wisdom with having boys and kids...I think of you when I want to pull out my hair! And I'm only on #3! It's actually going really well so far, but I have been praying for extra patience in every single prayer.:)

Yay, I can't believe it has been 8 years! You and your boys are so healthy and happy and looking great! I remember when Chris first proposed he gave you a blinking ring or a ring pop, is that right? You two are perfect together.
