T&L in the Fall of 2002
*This was supposed to go in the "about me" section of this blog layout but it was too small to accommodate the length of our journey :) Oh well, here it is...:)
Tim and I met in the fall of 2002 when he moved into my college apartment with my girlfriend and I as our third roommate. We soon became friends but had no romantic interest in each other...at first. As our friendship deepened, we realized we had so much in common for our lives and found ourselves wanting to spend more and more time together. By January of 2003, we had shared our first kiss and began the dating portion of our relationship. We both felt weird about our roommate/dating status and both laughed at how funny it was to meet in our shared living room for date nights. :) So we kept our dating relationship a secret for the next few months until our apartment lease was up and we could get our own separate places which we did in May of 2003 when I also graduated with my BA in Child Development. In January of 2005, Tim took a job with Trihydro as a geologist in Laramie, Wyoming. I was devastated and couldn't imagine how our relationship would work itself out but I knew if it was meant to be it would somehow. I also had never heard of such a place, in Wyoming!!??? I questioned if there was even life out there besides massive amounts of snow and buffalo. :) The year apart was long and cold, even here for me in sunny California. We did have many visits though that kept the spark alive. In February of 2006 in South Lake Tahoe, Tim proposed with the most heartfelt look I'd ever seen in a man's eyes and took my breath away. Later that month he came back to help me pack up my little civic and make the 2 day journey to our new life in Wyoming. I loved our new friends and the change of pace from stressful city life. I felt truly alive for the first time in my entire life. In July of 2006 in Tahoe we were married and continued to live and enjoy our Wyoming life until June of 2007 when we decided to move back to California to be closer to our families. We started off in Irvine per Trihydro's need at the time, then in 6 months moved up to the SF bay area for the opening of the new Trihydro office where Tim would soon be promoted to project manager. :) In August of this year we found out there will soon be a new addition to our family in April and are more excited than ever! We are now looking at buying a house in American
Canyon for our expanding needs!
