an even dozen

Today is our Twelfth anniversary, in the past twelve years...well we have been busy. We have lived in seven dwellings, both got our bachelors, Chris went on for his masters, med school, and almost finished residency. Chris has had MANY jobs, real and side ones. I've just had one before having all the SIX kids. WHo knew marriage could be so challenging at times, but hoping for many more wonderful years together!
We met when we were both fourteen, I was visiting my grandma in Mississippi and she dropped me and my friend Merry off at a youth conference...one look into those big blue eyes, and I was hooked

He must have fallen in love with me because I was so 80's


YES, I am lame it is a picture of a picture beacuse if you know me we have a silly computer that will nto hook up a scanner, printer and we are too cheap to get it fixed...okay, after the youth conference I never saw Chris again until I was 22. My dad retired in Mississippi and I came home to visit from Utah. Our mothers played matchmaker and we were married 8 months later.




Of course The girls had to approve the goods









So twelve years ago today we were sealed in the Washington, D.C. Temple. Happy Anniversary Chris Painter! I LOVE YOU!!!!
