Our Story Begins . . .


On June 13th, I said goodbye to my boyfriend. He was heading to boot camp for 13 weeks. Our only form of communication would be through letters, no email and no phone calls! On June 29th, I received a letter that took my breath away. In the letter, squished between info on his platoon and an obstacle course, were the words, "we should get married in my ten day leave." That was my proposal and of course I accepted. My fiance graduated from boot camp, for the United States Marine Corps, on Friday September 10th. A week later we were sealed for time and all eternity in the Redlands California Temple. It was the happiest day of my life; however, the reality of my new role as a wife of a marine came to life. On Tuesday September 21st, just four days after we were married, my husband left for four weeks to combat training. He graduated from combat training and headed to the Defense Language School in Monterey California. I wasn't too far behind and now you can come join me for life as a marine's wife in beautiful Monterey. : )
