Our Love Story

We were both raised in New Mexico and met in high school in 1996. We were fast friends and were for many years. Following high school, Andrew joined the Navy and Erica attended the University of New Mexico. While on deployment and in-port Bahrain, Andrew proposed and on February 7, 2004, we were married. Only one week after Andrew returned home from deployment.
