Flash back

For those who don't know us very well or know little about us, here is a little background of our lives together. To find out more about each of us personally, check out the section "About Us" on the right.
We met at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York in september 2002; we were on the same floor in the co-ed dorms. Being pretty much the only straight guy on the floor, I jumped on him! Just kidding. Those of you who know me, you know I wouldn't do that! My two roommates and I became friends with Jr. We hung out, ate and did pretty much everthing together.
The attraction between us began to develop more, I would say, towards the end of the fall 2002 semester, but it was only when we got back from the Christmas break that we started dating.
After we moved out from the dorms at the end of the Spring semester, we each moved into a different apartment with roommate(s) but only a few streets from each other, so we could see each other every single day!
In may 2005, I (Caroline) moved downtown into a much cooler and bigger apartment (20 John Street), but so far from Jr. (about 15 minutes on the subway)! The commute between us was so unbearable that Jr. and Cary (his brother) moved on my street downtown (99 John Street). Then we were happy to live only a few buildings away from each other.
So we dated for three and a half years until we decided to get married. Jr. proposed on a romantic walk on the Brooklyn Bridge, overlooking our neighborhood. I said YES!
We got married on October 14, 2006 in New York City with only our immediate family present; it was a very intimate ceremony. I also got baptised on the same day too.
In February 2007, we had a ring exchange ceremony and reception in Burlington, Vermont. We had to plan the October wedding quickly for immigration purposes, and then until February we had more time to plan for the big extravaganza!
On October 27, 2007 we are getting sealed in the Salt Lake City temple.
