Since the Beginning of Time... 5 YEARS!

Happy Anniversary to us! Today we have been married 5 years!! I can't believe it! Time sure flies! This blog title might only be funny to my family. Its a Little Rascals reference... I love my handsome husband so much! I loved our wedding day. Everything went perfect. I slept in, had my dad's homemade waffles for breakfast, did my hair and makeup, and then rode to the Salt Lake temple with my mom and dad. I can still remember Scott waiting there for us just inside the temple. It was the best day ever! I loved waiting in the Celestial room just the two of us before we were married. And our cute sealer! I can't remember anything he said except, he couldn't pronounce my name to save his life, and he was hilarious! That's all I remember. After the ceremony, my mom helped me change out of my temple dress and into my wedding dress, there were a million girls in there! Then we were walking down the hall and I hear. "WOW!" It was my handsome husband! I didn't even realize he was sitting in a chair at the end of the hall. We took a million pictures! Grabbed some Little Caesars pizza and then the party started! It was a blast! I love you Scott! This morning we had my dad's waffles together before work! (This time made by Scott, not my Dad.) It was the best! Scott is my best friend in the whole world! He is the hardest working guy I know. He is so caring, and thoughtful! He is going to be the best dad ever! I have no doubt about it! I am so lucky to be his wife! Happy Anniversary Babe!

our story

Jetti was working at Rafaels when she first served Scott's parents. They hit it off instantly, and so his mom decided to ask if Jetti had a boy friend. Jetti replied, "Sort of, he's on his mission right now, but I am dating other guys." As soon as that was said Scott's mom whipped out photos of her single boys. The first time Scott and Jetti actually saw each other was when Jetti served the entire Andrewsen family. This was for Scott's parents birthdays in October. Over the next few months Jetti and Scott occasionally worked together at the restaurant when Scott picked up some shifts. One night when they were working together in late January, Scott decided that they were going to hang out that night after work. Jetti informed Scott that she already had plans with some of her girl friends. Scott was persistent, played that they'd already agreed on plans and that she was breaking them, and even went as far as calling the girls to cancel the other plans. That didn't work. The girls showed up to the restaurant as it was closing, as planned. Scott headed home, and Jetti and her friends couldn't think of anything to do. So they too were just going to head home. As Jetti was driving home, she decided to take Scott up on his offer. She called back to the restaurant and got Scott's phone number from the manager. She called him, and she and the girls went and hung out at with him and his brother. They set up an official date for the next week, and after that they were inseparable.
