13. How did you and your husband meet?

When I moved to Utah, Joe’s older sister was my Young Women’s leader and due to the small number of youth in our ward, she invited Joe to one of our activities.  At the activity they taught us a few dances and Joe and I were paired up for part of it.  We talked briefly that night, but then recognized each other in classes at school the next day.  Everything after that was history.
