Carrie is THE love of my life. We met for the first time in Junior High School (7th Grade)! We both played in the band at school. She thought I was a "band geek" and I thought she was a "stuck up brat". Well, she was right I was wrong!

Our deep feelings for each other changed however, when we got to know each other our senior year in High School.

We dated for two years before I served a two year mission for my church in Norway. We wrote each other during those two years and grew quite close.

When I got home in July 1995, we started dating again. Three months later, in September, I proposed to her. We were married in the Arizona Temple December 27, 1995.

Carrie's a wonderful girl!! She is a wonderful mother and does so much for us at home! She graduated from Arizona State University as a Music Therapast and became Board Certified in November 1999.
