Happy Valentine's Day

Where did you meet? online....later it was in person at the airport.

What was the first thing you said to each other? Hi

Where was your first date? Salt Lake City/ Lehi. Our first date was supposed to be for the Lehi Rodeo, but he said he couldn't wait to see me until then so I went up sooner. First, he picked me up at the airport. We then went to the church office building where he is grandma worked, met her and then looked out over the city on top of that building. Then we drove to Lehi where I met his family. Next, we went to a driving range and then a movie (The Sum of all Fears). After that we had dinner with his family and then went to a park to talk. Then he took me home...to the airport.

Who said "I love you" first?
Jack did. It was our second date, a week later. We were at the Crossroads Mall food court having shakes and he said " I love you"... I changed the subject.

Where was your first kiss? After we went to the Lehi Rodeo (about 3 or 4 weeks after the first date) we went back to his parents' place and sat out on the tramp under the stars.

Who proposed?
Jack did. I had pretty much figured out when it would be because I knew that he already had the ring. I was going to spend time with his family at the cabin. After he picked me from the airport we drove to the cabin and he drove to the top of the mountian(the highest place you could drive to in Utah) and said that he wanted me to take a picture of the scenery (I love to take pictures). I went to take a picture but there was no film in the camera. I opened it and inside was a ring! He proposed, we kissed and drove to the cabin listening to the Beatles 1 cd in the car.

Did you have a short or long engagement?
Short. We met at the end of May got engaged in August and married at the end of December. Although we started talking about getting married after week two of dating...crazy

Where did you get engaged?
Top of the Mirror Lake Highway.

Where were you married?
Mesa Arizona Temple...AKA the Lamanite Temple for you oldies.

How did the reception go?
Beautiful ...it was a forest of pinetrees. My dear mother and her friends planned it all. I had honestly never thought about my wedding ring , dress or day. Since then....I have!:)

How was the honeymoon? Lets see if you consider what we did after getting married...not too exciting...we drove to UT and started life, school work and all that goes with it. The actual honeymoon was taken 8mo later after we saved to buy tickets to spend 17 days in Spain...I want to go back before my passport expires.

Okay, there were some major revelations for me on this post--seriously. Jack said "I love you" on the SECOND date???? Did that freak you out a little bit? And YOU changed the subject???
I really am surprised to hear that your temper is worse. Not that I think Jack comes across as having a bad temper, but you have a fairly mellow personality, so that surprised me too.

LOL No it didn't really freak me out...in fact if you ask him about why he said it now he says "I don't know, hormones?" HA HA

As far as the temper thing...I've fooled you so far huh? LOL Seriously...it's like Lolly's post "the fury"LOL

I love the way Jack proposed, so cute to hide the ring in the camera! Great post, I feel like I know so much more about you now too. Did you get the email, the FHE kit making has been moved to tonight at the church at 7pm, hope you can make it!

I agree with Audrey, some revelations in this post.

Yeah for Spain as a honeymoon destination. We went to Vegas for a few days after we got married and then went to Spain for another "honeymoon" two years later. Good times!
