Our Dating Story...




1 - Where did you meet your husband?
I met my wonderful husband working at Affiliated Realty Group.. He actually was trying to set me up with his brother, Aaron, who was about to come home from his mission.

2 - What was the first thing you said to your husband?
I think it was either "Where did you get the nickname Birddog?" or something about not being able to go out with his brother cause I was dating someone else.

3 - Where was your first date?
We went up American Fork canyon for a nice spring drive, then to his house in Provo where we just hung out and talked, then to Magleby's Fresh for dinner and then back to his house where we watched The Last of the Mohicans.

4 - Where was your first kiss?
On the couch at his house on our first date.. I kissed him and let's just say I didn't get to see the whole movie that night...

5 - How long did you date for?
We started dating in May of 2005 and got engaged in September 2005

6 - Where did you get engaged?
That night we went to Clark's Planetarium, and then out to dinner at PF Changs.  We started to drive home from Salt Lake and then Darren turned around and we went to the Salt Lake City Temple.  We were sitting there talking about the importance of the temple where out of nowhere a couple started singing the hymn "All Creatures of our God and King" (which was not planned) and so Darren decided it was the perfect time. He got down on one knee and proposed.  It was really very romantic!

7 - When and where were you married?
Darren and I were married on November 5 2005 in the Salt Lake City Temple
8 - How did the reception go?
It was perfect.  Everything about that day was perfect. It was at a chapel in Alpine and the cultural hall was all done up and it looked fantastic!

9 - How was the honeymoon?
Thanks to our office we had a wonderful time in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico! They surprised us with the great wedding gift of a honeymoon in Mexico! It was so nice lying on the beach all day and being with my hubby!

10 - TAG!
I tag Abby and Lindsay!
