A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

We were married on Aug. 21, 1993. It was the start of a beautiful life together. (Kind of mushy, huh?)

Anyway, we met a long time ago, when we were in the seventh grade. We had a wood shop class together. In that class we made a jewelry box, and a paper napkin holder. Somehow he got a better grade on his napkin holder, but mine is WAY better! You just need to look at them to see that his deserved a lower grade than mine!

Well, we lost touch for a while. We both went on to the same high school, and we would say 'Hi' to each other every once in a while if we saw each other, but it wasn't until our senior year that we started dating.

So, to make a long story even longer, we dated six years (Yes! I said six years, we were young, we needed time to grow up, OK?). Dan asked me to marry him in 1992. In 1992 we moved to Santa Maria so I could go to school at Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo (30min north) and Dan could continue to work for his company at the time in Santa Barbara (1hr south).

We were finally married on Sat. August 21, 1993 in Ventura, CA., the town were we grew up.
