Our Wedding




Hospitality Point, San Diego, California
It was a perfect sunny day.

Rock N Roll Marathon

We started out strong, but at mile 6 during a stop at the water table we were separated. I continued on hoping that we would cross paths. Matt ran back and forth between mile 6 and 13 looking for me. At the halfway point, Matt showed random people a picture of me from the camera and someone recognized me and said that I had just ran by. Matt sprinted on trying to catch me. With all my nutrient packs with Matt, I ran on water alone. Finally we found each other at mile 23 and were able to finish the marathon together.

Our First Date


Madri Gras 2006

Downtown San Diego

Gaslamp District

How It All Started

I moved into 'The Ronda House' shortly after Christmas in 2005. Matt was out of town visiting family for the holidays and returned to find a new roommate. Matt invited me to a New Year's Eve party and on the way there he starting talking about running a marathon in honor of his dear friend, Angel, who was dying of breast cancer. I mentioned that I always wanted to run a marathon and we started training for the Rock N Roll Marathon of San Diego. After many long runs together; therefore many long talks together, we went on our first date. It was Madri Gras in the Gaslamp downtown on Feb. 28, 2006. Within the next seven months we managed to buy a house and get married. Almost two years after our first date, we welcomed Jayden Jacob Thomas to our family. Things are good.
