We met when we were both in our freshman year of University of Oregon. We had both come out of long term high school sweethearts and we really just looking to be friends. After two years of just hanging out, Shannon decided to move back to California. When she did, Tim made the realization that he liked Shannon a lot more than a friend. THANK GOD because Shannon had pictured being with this man for last two years too. When Tim finished at UofO, he moved down to Santa Barbara to be with Shannon during her final year of college. Once we were both graduated, we moved back up to the Bay Area. We've been through numerous moves, careers, and can't imagine going through anything else in life without each other by our side.
