How we met : )

Well, since megan challenged everyone to tell their story about how they met their spouse, and since i can't think of a single thing to write a blog about, i figured i'd take her up on that challenge.

AHEM. Well for those of you who don't know, megan and I married brothers. So obviously i met jared through tim and megan. they were dating and i guess tim and jared were going to iowa to paint their aunts house and so tim decided to come and see megan since they were in the general neighborhood. So he hauled jared along with him who was quite perturbed to have to go and see tim's girlfriends family. MEANWHILE....tim asked megan who then mentioned to me if i would go on a date with jared (tim and megan will deny this) since jared had a psycho girlfriend at the time. (i'm not just being mean, she was a basket case!) well i hate being told what to do so of course i said "heck no!" so by the time the boys got to our house jared and i both had our noses stuck up in the air. only then i was a little intrigued about why he wouldn't pay me any attention and so i maybe flirted with him. a little. ok...i flirted a whole lot. but in all fairness he flirted back!

to shorten this long story i'll cut to the chase. we dated long distance (i know i know) for about a year and then we both ended up at BYU where we dated for another year. in the middle of that we got engaged. He proposed in front of the nauvoo temple, at sunset. it was perfect! only according to jared i forgot to say "yes" when he asked me and just shoved the ring on my finger. jared was my first boyfriend and first kiss. :)

we were married august 25th 2006. which means our 2nd anniversary is just around the corner! it doesn't seem like it though, being married to your best friend is waaaay more fun than work. :) blah blah blah i know i'm getting all mushy, but it's true! anyway, thats our story in a really big nutshell. Our wedding: August 25th 2006
