How we became the Neff Family...

It all started back in 1996. Kristopher and I were fundraising at S.I.R. for our church summer camp. I laid eyes on him and thought "hmmm he sure is cute". Then came summer camp and 2 weeks later we were boyfriend and girlfriend. We dated for the next 6 years and then were married on August 16th 2002. It was 80 degrees out and not a cloud in the sky. We were married outside under the flower and ivy filled arbor at a beautiful manor in Kirkland.
Next we had decided we were on the 5 year plan for starting a family. So we went to Maine to visit family and friends. We went to Victoria for our 1 year anniversary.

We also took the best vacation we have ever taken together in 2005 to Yellowstone, The Grand Tetons and Jackson Hole. We saw everything and ate really great steak, we saw Moose, buffalo, deer and lots of birds. We even took Sephi.
Then we came home from the trip and I finally admitted to Kristopher that "yes, I have been feeling weird". I hate it when he is right. So I took a pregnancy test and it was weird it said pregnant. WOW... So the shock took about 2 weeks to get over and then we started to get excited for this wonderful little surprise. So as you can see our 5 year plan was cut short.
