We met on August 29, 2005 in Mr. Neuman's math class at Centennial High School. For me, it was love at first sight when i saw this shy, freckle-faced boy with dimples that were to die for. I gave him my e-mail address so that we could IM each other :) and after i chased him for a while, he finally decided to give me a shot. We dated off and on for the next 4 years of high school and shortly afterwards, on November 26, 2009 we got engaged! It was the happiest moment of my life and i had only dreamed of being with someone so perfect, but never thought that dream would become my reality.
We were married on August 7, 2010 in Boise, ID. It was everything i imagined it to be. He makes the most wonderful husband and i couldn't ask for anything better <3
We rented a little house in East Boise and added 2 baby pups to our family: Kona & Maleko. At 6 weeks old, it was difficult raising them & dealing with potty training, puppy whining, etc, but we managed to make it :)
On February 9, 2011, Nathan left for boot camp for the Navy. It was 58 long days before i could see his face again and on April 9, 2011 I went with his parents to watch him graduate. It was one of the happiest moments of my life and also the most difficult.
He left again for A-School which was in Pensicola, FL and was gone until May 11, 2011. He came home and was able to spend time with family and friends until the 18th when we packed up the dogs and our bags and headed East to our new home in Virginia Beach, VA. It was a 42 hour drive but of course Nathan made it incredibly enjoyable. :) We arrived in Virginia Beach on the 21st and on the 24th, i had to say goodbye once again as Nathan boarded an airplane headed to Bahrain. It has been a difficult journey, but well worth it when i get to see his face again. He is supposed to come back home in the middle of July and i'm hoping it will be for longer than i'm anticipating.
