One of our first dates in November 1998 (we went to Gold's Gym to work out together)
Our first visit to California together in February 1999 (fishing in Marina Del Rey with his family) Nice glasses honey....
Our first road trip together was to Cedar City with some friends. Why don't you were suspenders anymore? They were hot!
First Snow Fight in Salt Lake ....WOW my hair was really blonde! (Utah does that to people I guess)
One of our hundred of engagement pictures taken in UtahToday marks the 9th anniversary of the day David and I got engaged. David and I were both home for the summer from BYU and would be going back to school in a few weeks. He lived in Burbank and I lived in Vista. He was down visiting for the weekend and was really acting strange the whole time. On Sunday during church he told me he needed to talk to me. I could tell something was bothering him, but I didn't think it was because he had a ring box burning a hole in his pocket. Anyway, after church he said there was somewhere he wanted to take me and he didn't talk the whole time we were in the car. When we got to the beach, he pulled his car over by the side of the road and told me he had to check his tire. He asked if I would get the tire pressure gauge out of his trunk. I thought that was weird, but did it anyway. I opened up the trunk and there was the ring box open with my beautiful platinum ring inside. Wow! I was so surprised! I turned around and he was down on one knee. He asked me to marry him! What a wonderful day. It was a busy few weeks before we went back up to Provo getting plans done before I left and then we were married in December.
I love you David more today then I ever have. All we've been through in the last 10 years had really brought us so much closer together. Have a great day!

Were you worried he was going to break up with you? I think the silence would have made me crazy. Congrats!
Hi Leanna, It's April here--David's cousin... What a neat idea for a post!! :) Hope you don't mind if I copy it in a few months... Also, did you notice that you have "February 2009" underneath the picture of you and David fishing?? :)
Good times, good times!! We still take credit for making it all happen. You two are a perfect match! You were then and you are now! Happy anniversary :-)
Leanna,
That is a really neat story. Congrats on a beautiful family.
