On June 5, 2004, Brett and I were to Lake Powell with his family. He and I were floating on a tube talking about our life. In the conversation marriage came up. We had been only dating 1 1/2 months and there was no doubt we were going to be together forever. Just a few weeks later he flew home with me to meet "the parents." I remember getting on the plane flying back to Utah and thinking to myself...."I will never come to this Island again single." Oh was I right. HOWEVER I had no idea that it was going to be so soon. I recall calling my mom on July 12th to inform her we were official engaged. I will never forget her saying..."You mean you are going to get married NEXT August 13th."
"Oh no, This August 13th."
"You mean 1 month and 1 day from today and I am in North Carolina."
1 month and 1 day from that conversation we had the most beautiful wedding you can ever imagine. Needless to say the phone bill was $600 that month but it all worked out.:)
In the past four years Brett and I have grown to love each other More and More. We have had our challenges joining an already started family of 3 but it as been wonderful. Brett is such a wonderful husband and father. Easton and Brooklyn love him so much. Some nights I just sit back and watch him playing with them and realize I have a bit of heaven here on this earth.
Thank you, Brett, for 4 wonderful years. I look forward to growing old with you!
Your eternal companion,
