Once upon a time we got married....

Here's a little story about how I met the love of my life. Hubby and I met May 14, 2007. We were introduced by one of my friends from my spring semester sign language class. I guess you could say it was love at first sight; him looking amazing as I opened the door and me, standing there in my pink sweats and green tee shirt, nice and sweaty right back from the gym. For whatever reason he decided to pursue me, even with such a terrible intro on my part, and we saw each other every day for a month till I left to go home for summer in California. We had been dating for 11 months when he proposed on April 14th. We were married in the Newport Beach Temple on August 14th. Our reception was at the Turnip Rose in Newport; a wonderful Spanish style venue. Here are just a few pictures from the best day of my life....
