We re- did our couch!!!

So Nick and I just re- upholstered our couch. This was a huge project, but it was totally worth all of the hard effort we put into it. This is what the couch used to look like.... and then the final piece....after a LOT of sewing and building. I sewed all of the pillows, cushions, and actual fabric that is covering the couch. Nick built the ottoman, and did all of the stapling of the fabric, and putting all of the couch pieces together. We made a great team, and it was a lot of work, about 3 weeks of work, but it was worth it!!!!

Our Story

Nick and I met in high school. Although he attended a different high school than I did we were still friends. After high school nick left for a mission to Fukuoka, Japan. I continued through a dental assisting program and assisted for about a year and a half. I was attending the young single adult ward when Nick came home from his mission. I was 20 at the time and was saving up and preparing to serve a mission myself. I began attending the mission prep classes held at the stake center. Little did I know that Nick had recently been given the calling of teaching the missionary prep classes. Well I continued going to them and one class there was an odd number of people and in order to practice partner discussions Nick had to participate. So I was paired up with him, we taught a discussion together and well it went a little too smooth. Lets just say he got my number " for class purposes" and used it to ask me on a date. Our first date went very well and two and a half weeks later we were engaged and two months later we were married. We have been married 3 years now and we are loving life. We live in rexburg where I am attending BYU-Idaho as a Dance Major, and Nick is transferring to ISU in January to attend their Law enforcement program.
