About My Wonderful Husband

1. Where did you meet your husband? At Reams apartments in Provo Utah. They are called something else now. I was asked to cook for his apartment by one of his room mates. He took me grocery shopping the first time and was there most often when I was cooking. He was one of the most shy people I had ever met and so I took it as a challenge to get him to talk. He was dating someone at the time and I was interested in someone else. We became friends and had a class together the next semester. When we would get together to study we would talk for hours and got to know each other quite well.
