We've decided to start a blog because.... we wanted to keep updated with friends who are out doing other things, as well as allow others to keep up with us if they so choose. It seems that facebook just isn't our style of communication; too much advertising and too many groups and causes. This seems to be the better option for keeping in touch.
So, here's a little history about us..... As mentioned in our profile information, we met in early December 2008 via one of Josh's mission companions Elder Gray. Though the story goes that Josh had to break down some huge walls via washing dishes with Amanda, and playing Toss & Catch( a game where we see how high we could throw grapes or cherry tomatoes and catch them in our mouths) we started dating on (Amanda reminds me) February 1st of 2009. Regular dating commenced and by June, Josh had purchased a ring. It wasn't until August 1st( again Amanda reminds me) that Josh finally had conquered the task of asking Dennis's permission and made the "one-knee-plea".
The next four months were a happy/rough/loooong wait but finally, on Dec. 19th we walked into those temple doors 2 single people and walked out 1 married couple. It has been the highlight of both of our lives.
We've been married almost 4 months now...and what a trip. It's been a lot of fun and hey, what's not to like right? We're both really busy with both of us working 2 jobs each and trying to get some school done in there as well. We will keep you updated on the specifics.
