It all started 6 years ago. Jake and I had barely known each other when he showed up at my house wearing a giant blow up ostrich costume. when I answered the door he said hello and came walking right in. He said hello to my mom and asked her for a tomato sandwich! I didn't know what to think. Here was this random kid from school visiting with my mom in my kitchen like they were already good friends.
I knew then that I kinda liked him.
Later on in the school year I saw him in the hall wearing a red power ranger costume made for a 5 year old. (it was pretty snug on him) I asked him what he was doing and he told me about a handicapped kid in his math class that really liked power rangers so he wanted to do something nice for him.
I decided I liked him a little more.
I was president of the drill team at the time and we were practicing on the football field every morning for 3 hours in a foot of snow wearing our dance pants and dance shoes. I called Jake and asked if I could borrow a pair of snow pants for practice. He of course said "sure come on over!" While i was there, we shared our first kiss.
Now I really liked him.
that's how it all began. The story of Jake and Marianne. 3 years later we were married.
We always knew we wanted to be sealed for eternity in the temple. a year later on August 21st we were
It's been 3 amazing years! and here we are today, a 20 month old and I am 71/2 months pregnant with our next little adventure! we've made it this far and are looking forward to many more years (and kids) to come!
