James came in for an interview as an electrician at Collis. He had worked here before and I did not want to hire him back. Our maintenance manager decided to give him another chance and when he came into my office to fill out paperwork I thought wow, I wonder if he's single! haha A few weeks later he came to a get together at my house and we hit it off. We went on a date the next day and we were in a relationship a couple weeks later!

On Valentine's Day James I was pretty frustrated with James because we didn't get to spend any time together because we work opposite shifts and even when I came home for my lunch break he left to "go run errands" I felt bad when he came back with a beautiful heart necklace for me but what he was really doing was out buying my RING!!! The day after Valentine's Day I was getting ready for work and I walked out to the living room and our daughter Maci was holding a sign and a rose. The sign said, "Will you marry our Dad?" I turned around and James was down on one knee!! I could not believe it was really happening, it was perfect!
