How we met

Randy and I met at an institute dance July 12, 1996. I remember seeing him for the first time, it really WAS one of those "the crowd parted and there he was" moments. I remember him just glowing! I nudged my friend and told her that I wanted to dance with him and she told me to go for it. Well I am not one to be super shy and I have had great experiences with meeting guys at dances in the past, so I went over to ask him to dance. At that moment the DJ came on saying that the dance might be ending soon because of technical difficulties..Yay! they fixed it and I was off to find my man. I did find him but chickened out. We must have went around the same group of people because I got a second chance! So I asked him to dance. It was funny because Randy asked me if I wanted to go out and my answer was "steady?" Anyone who knows me knows that I say funny things sometimes, especially when I am nervous. Well we exchanged numbers and the next day I got a call........To be continued.......

Two weeks until Twelve years

Only two weeks until I will be a married women of 12 years!! Thanks to my friend Heather Fuller's blog, she inspired me to "Go back in time." So here are some of our favorite pictures through the years. Down at the bottom are some of our songs that mean a lot to the both of us. Hopefully I can get back on here and share some things that you just may not know about us. Enjoy! Maybe I can figure out how to add some of our wedding video.

Tribute to Friends

You know it's funny where my journey takes me from day to day. Here I am strolling down a familiar road where everything is dandy and out of no where a cloud of dust sweeps me down an unexpected road. And even though I have been on paths similar to this in the past and am certain there will be more in my future, I still feel alone and scared. I try to find my way out but end up pretty much in circles. It never is the end for me though because atlas there is always a friend that comes to my rescue, to lend me a helping hand, shine their light or loan me their faith. Sometimes they come to my aid unexpectedly in a time that is unforeseen. I appreciate everyone of my friends and am so thankful for such love and unending support that they give me. They remind me to trust in myself and remind me that I am loved by my Heavenly Father, that he is always aware of my trials and that if I humbly come to him in prayer than I will receive the answers that I am looking for. I know this is cliche' but friends ARE PRICELESS and I am so very blessed to have each and every one of them. Old and new I am thankful for each one of you.

You are thoughtful and care very deeply for your family. A loving home is of great
importance to you and you always try to make people feel welcome. Although you have a great capacity to love, you also have a great capacity to hurt, so at times you can be
sensitive. You're firm when you need to be, but people trust your judgment and
appreciate the kind way you always handle things.
