We are transplants to Minnesota. I grew up in Oregon/Utah and Brock grew up in Utah/Brazil. There's pretty much a ton more to our story, but I'll save that for later.

Natalee's story of how we met:
After the first time I saw Brock I was smitten with his good looks. I even went home and wrote about him in my journal. A little silly perhaps, but he really impressed me. He spoke in church on June 27, 2005 and I didn't get to really meet him until August 2005.
We met at ward prayer, Brock came up to me and said something to start a conversation. I remember giving him my phone number that night in the parking lot. He called me shortly after to see if I wanted to play softball in Newton with some of his friends. I remember driving out with him, I was so nervous, excited, and ready to have fun!
We starting hanging out everyday. And I mean everyday. There wasn't a day that went by that we didn't talk. Our first date was to Wok on Wheels in Logan and IT WAS ON A THURSDAY. (That is an important FACT you will not find in Brock's story haha). We went to a football game the next day, and when we were walking home (Brock, his friend, and I) both of them tried to hold my hand. Since I was crushing on Brock, of course he ended up as the one holding my hand. The next day Brock and I watched the movie "Singing in the Rain" where we had our first kiss in his basement. He walked me home (across the street).
We continued dating until October when we broke up. I dated around but nothing too serious. In fact I started crushing on one (ok maybe two) of his friends but nothing came of it. We got back together the middle of January. He asked me to marry him on April 29, and we were married July 20, 2006.
I'll probably have to add to the details of this story, but for now... that's a pretty good start. :D
Brock's story of how we met:
(He has one, I promise... but it may take me another nine years to get him to write it down hee hee).
