Happy Anniverasry

Today we are celebrating 9 years of marriage, I can't believe it! It has gone by so quickly, it hasn't felt like that long at all. We have both learned so much from each other, and are happier than ever! I love you Wayne, here is a look back at some memories...
Our Cruise to the Bahamas just two weeks ago it was so nice.
 

Okay this is incriminating! 1997 (13 years ago!) We started dating and falling in love. We really didn't know what that was back then, but it was sure fun to hang out and become best friends.
 

Our Wedding Day May 30, 2001 Salt Lake Temple. What a special day but it was a whirlwind! We were excited and nervous. We enjoyed a honeymoon at Zions National Park, where we had our fist challenge. Our car battery died on the top of Kolob Mtn. Thats one of the things that made it memorable though.
 

The next years are already hard to remember (what was it like without kids?? what did we do all the time?)
2001: We lived in a little apartment in Roosevelt then moved into Scott and Jolene Risers house while they were in China. Wayne worked for Schwans and Neilsen's furniture, I finished my last year of school.
2002: We moved into our house, Wayne started working for Pinnacle, I taught my first year of school.
2003: I graduated from USU, and started my 2nd year of teaching school.
2004: Our lives changed forever, we became parents just before our 3rd Anniversary. This picture was later that year.
