Congratulations to Mitt and Ann Romney who celebrated 43 years of marriage today! Nowadays it’s quite a huge accomplishment to do what it takes to make love last! I love to hear of such wonderful love stories…
Kinda fun that I also got to meet Mitt Romney back in 2006 and share my book with him. (Maybe they’ve even read it together! …I’m sure that’s why they are so happy together! ; )
Happy 50th Anniversary! — Morris and Elaine Bastian
It isn’t everyday that a couple reaches that fabulous milestone of 50 years of marriage. My good friends, Morris and Elaine Bastian, have successfully done just that!
In Love and At War
We tell people that we have a unique story. Not because we are very different, but because of the circumstances under which we met and fell in love. It’s what movies and romance novels are made of. Continue reading ““How We Met” Story #20 — Chris & Jackie” »
After being engaged three different times in about a year and a half, I met Eric. As we were getting acquainted, when we first met at a church dance, I found out he was going to Ogden the next day to visit some family.

I met my future wife, Analisa, at a BYU singles ward that I attended after I got off of my mission. My older brother, Vincent, was going to the ward, so I tagged along with him.
Chad and I met in college in May 2002 when I took over his student government position. I called him to learn about what the position entailed. During our meeting he interrupted me to tell me that I had the most beautiful eyes. I thanked him but didn’t really think too much of it. Continue reading ““How We Met” Story #17 — Chad & Naomi” »
Neil and I met while attending BYU-Idaho. (It will always be Ricks College to us!) A friend of his was dating a friend of mine and wanted to set up a double date. Originally they had both invited someone other than Neil and myself on the date. Neil’s friend asked him after the first guy bailed, and then my friend invited me after the other girl bailed.
Shauna and I met because of a joke perpetrated by my friends at a Burger King Drive thru window. Some buddies of mine had gone there for food, and they gave Shauna my phone number as a joke. (She was working at the window.) Continue reading ““How We Met” Story #15 — Doug & Shauna” »
My husband’s family moved into my neighborhood and church boundaries when I was in third grade. He always seemed too old for me because he is three years older than I am. I remember I thought he was really cute though, when I would see him at church.
I remember him leaving on a mission for our church, and I remember him coming back too. He had no clue I was in existence until he came home from his mission and saw me in the Young Single Adults class. Continue reading ““How We Met” Story #14 — Robbie & Natalie” »
