We first met August 28, 2005


This picture was taken in January of 2006 when my whole family went to Salt Lake. We went up into the Joseph Smith memorial building and took this pretty picture with the temple in the background.

We met August 28 in a Brigham Young University ward where Kevin was going to school and Jeanne was working as a registered nurse at Utah Valley Regional Hospital in the Newborn ICU and finishing up her bachelors in Nursing degree online. We started dating soon after that and by February knew we wanted to be married. Kevin graduated in April with his bachelors in Finance and was interviewing for jobs. This was a busy time for us as we were preparing for a wedding and finishing school, but we got through it. We were married May 13, 2006 in the Salt Lake City Temple, and have been so happy since then. It was a wonderful day shared with family and friends. What a special time to be sealed for time and eternity in a beautiful temple and to know that our family will be together forever.The next month was incredibly busy with a honeymoon to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico (see pictures below), then we came back to Utah for a week and spent time with Jeanne's family. The next week we went to Wisconsin to look for an apartment and then flew to Albuquerque, New Mexico for an open house at Kevin's parent's home. The next few days we packed everything up, said our goodbyes and drove to Wisconsin.Kevin was blessed with some very good job offers and we decided to go to Wisconsin to work for Kimberly-Clark Corporation, which is a consumer product company. You may recognize some of their products as Huggies, Kleenex, and Cottonelle. This was a difficult decision since it would mean moving far from family and friends, but it has been a blessing in disguise as we have enjoyed meeting new people and making new friends.
