We can credit online dating website match.com for us meeting eachother! :-) Those of you that know where Mark lived in Sonora know that we never would have met the old fashioned way! We had our first date on May 3, 2008....We met at Firkin and Fox a pub in downtown Modesto for dinner and drinks. We hit it off right away, sharing pictures of our kids and getting to know one another. We both had a background filled with adversity and were looking for that special person to share life with!

Our friends and family know our histories and how much we faced with our past. We both knew there was someone special out there for us somewhere! It was definitely in God's plan for us to meet!

Our wedding will be a private ceremony at Avila Beach shoreline on May 3, 2011. We are going down with our kids and our immediate family members for a beach ceremony and dinner. Both of us are beach people, so this is the perfect wedding for us!

We are inviting all of our friends and family to a party afterwards on June 24, 2011. Look for your invitation coming soon!

We would like to thank all of our family and friends that have supported us these past years. Especially during the years before we met......we both went through a lot of difficult times, but had faith that one day we would find the person that would complete us. We feel so extremely blessed to have our families and friends in our lives and look forward to celebrating with you!
