The year was 1999
and I was a Cosmetology Student
at Fran Brown College of Beauty,
working nights for gas money, at the front desk
of Gold's Gym in Layton, Utah.
One night I got chatting with a gal named Angie,
who would come in regularly with her husband to work-out
but since she had hurt her ankle,
she was relaxing on the couch near the the front desk.
As we talked she went on to tell me about
a really cute return missionary,
her husband worked with,
she felt she needed to set me up with.
Since he was a member of Gold's Gym
I decided to look up his picture on the computer.
I thought he looked pretty cute
from what I could see of the tiny picture.
And went on with my night without a second thought.
Little did I know the next time I worked:
May 12th, 1999
I would meet my future husband.
He happened to come in
(though later I found out he came just to check me out)
while I was working and scanned his card.
I of coarse recognized his picture.
He came in regular clothing, which I thought was odd,
and said he was "looking for someone."
After he had walked around for a few minutes
I asked him if he was looking for Angie's husband, Tim.
He got a little smirk on his face
and asked how I knew that.
From there we talked for over an hour,
I know this because I looked at
what time he scanned his card when he left.
I gave him my number...
I know that sounds so tacky, huh.
But I guess it was meant to be.
That night when Spencer went home
he told his parents he had met the girl
he was going to marry.
We got married one year later to the date.
Here is a look back.
I chose one picture for every year
and learned that the more kids we have,
the less pictures
we have of us together.

Happy ten year Anniversary
Spencer!
Sadly I don't really have any pictures of just us,
for this year yet. I will have to take one this weekend when we
will go out to celebrate.
Thanks for ten great years!
I love you!
