A match made in Heaven....'cause we would have messed it up if it had been up to us!

We met at the Homecoming Football Game of our High School.  He was a Senior and I was a Sophomore.

Our first "one-on-one", "official"-date didn't happen until 9 years later.  We went for a drive and talked for hours.  Dating was difficult since we lived in two different States, but we managed.  Long walks on the moonlit beach. 
 Fun days romping through Disneyland.  Idyllic evenings at Seaport Village in San Diego.  It was a dream-come-true...

Four months after our first date, and almost ten years after we met, he flew out to visit for the weekend.  I knew he was going to propose!  We were both really...really nervous!  After I picked him up at the airport and he asked me to drive over to the Mesa, AZ Temple, I knew this was "THE" moment.
There, in the soft lights shining on that beautiful Temple, he asked me to be his wife, his eternal companion, and the mother of his children.  I said, "Yes, I think I'd like that..."  ...and I have.

That was 25 years ago, today!  I am SO glad he asked....and SO happy I said "yes"!!!
