Our Story

My husband (Bubs) and I met at an LDS young single adult dance in June of 2012. He asked me to dance and asked me out on a date right after the song. I was hesitant to say yes. I mean, I didn't know very much about him! I agreed and due to scheduling conflicts our first date was a whopping 3 weeks later! We had our first date in July- we went to the Folsom Lake Aquatic Center & wanted to go kayaking. I didn't think to bring my ID, so they wouldn't allow us to rent anything! Thankfully, Bubs was a quick thinker and decided to take me window shopping at the Folsom Outlets (which wasn't too far away) We walked around and chatted for a while. I did my best to BS my way through conversations about sports and he still seemed interested in me, so as far as I was concerned it was a win! He introduced me to La Fiesta Taqueria and the food was to die for! (It's our favorite Mexican place!)

Fast forward to my birthday (8/2/12). He took me boating with some friends of his, and I went inner tubing for the second time in my life. It was terrifying! But everyone was really nice and they included me in all the fun! Bubs surprised me with a Peanutbutter cheesecake complete with 22 candles! It was at that moment that I knew that I loved him.

This was on my birthday. He showed up in his security uniform and we had a photo shoot!

Long story short, we dated that summer (probably only 6 dates total.  We were both working full-time and he was also going to school full-time! Whew!) and were engaged in September. We were married on April 27, 2013 in the LDS Sacramento Temple for time and all eternity! What an adventure it has been so far! Bubs is the sweetest, silliest, most honest person I know and I love him to pieces!
