July 24, 1999 was the day I met my Brian. It was the day our lives changed. I'm gonna share some details of that great day. I had just moved here from California 3 weeks before. I made some super cute friends and they invited me up north for the pioneer celebration. I love roadtrips so I was in. It was a Saturday night and we were deciding what to do and one of the girls said she heard there was a party at some guys house she had a crush on. So off we went. When we got there we walk in and everyone is just kind of sitting around (boring) There is also no where to sit except for one dining room chair in the corner so me and emily share the chair. Thats when I heard a cute voice say "you can come sit by me" I looked up and saw him. He was so so cute. Then I see him sitting on a love seat with a girl next to him. I say no I'm fine. A second later he said "come on that doesn't look comfortable, come sit by me" The peer pressure was too much so I stand up and sit on the love seat with this cute guy. He starts talking to me and I'm just answering one word answers back and no eye contact. VISUAL: it's 1999 so overalls were cool and I was still 17 with clear braces. I guess he senses my awkwardness and says "don't worry, I think braces are sexy". Ok those are famous words in our house:) I ate that right up and started smiling braces and all.

It just seems like yesterday-I remember you coming home and telling me that you had met the guy you were going to marry!! Little did I know, you were right! It was fun watching you two fall in love-hearing his missionary experiences and knowing that he would be a great husband, loyal and love you all the days of your life!!
