"in which my story continues"
Our honeymoon was 3 months after our wedding so Dave could get the time off work. We drove my trusty Buick down hwy 1 on the west coast from Seattle to San Diego, stopping along the way in various spots. We even hopped the border for a day in Tijuana.
The next 10 years contained the highest highs and the lowest lows of my lifetime. The first time since we met that we spent a day without seeing each other was 2 1/2 years after we were married. It hasn't always been perfect, but we complement each other nicely.
We've celebrated each others accomplishments and supported each others failures. We made it through 4 births, miscarriage and a few diabetic comas together. We love each other more every day.
I feel confident in assuming that with eternity as our goal, we will live happily ever after. I know that I made the right choice back in December of 99 and I'm grateful I learned to listen to the promptings of the Spirit.
In case you're wondering about Matt, he met someone and got married in the temple after his mission and has a couple kids now.
PS...you know what I learned while writing this? Maybe real life really is like a cheesy LDS romance novel. :D

Love it! And you two do compliment each other well. :)
I told you it would make a great LDS Romance novel! You better get a ghost writer or start putting in more details so you can send a transcript to Deseret Book! ;)
I just read your 'book' to my mom and she likes it too and said your wedding reception sounds really pretty and we wish we were had been there.
