We met at a karaoke show in Santa Clara where Mike was spending most Friday nights Bar backing. After a few months of hanging out, it became clear that we had something special. Mike met my dad over Memorial day of 2004 and asked him for my hand in marriage. In November of that year he put a ring on my finger and proposed to Elesa my, then, 4 year old daughter. about a month later we found out little Chance was about to make his appearance in our family. Over the next 4 years we have had numerous adventures, and some incredible life changes, and as a couple we continue to grow and work together through all the ups and downs. At the beginning of this year we threw around the idea of getting married on the 5th year anniversary of being engaged. Although that specific date didn't work, we found the idea of a cruise wedding to be just as close to perfect as we could want... and now we launch into The next chapter...
