Kimmy and Nathan met long before he can actually remember. Kimmy was in color guard at Willamette High School and was attending a competition at Nathan’s high school, Sprague. She was but one girl in a crowd but he most certainly left an impression on her. That was fall of 2000. Fast forward to 2002.
Marching Band Camp. Nathan and Kimmy were in the same section in marching band: color guard! Most of the season they were on opposite ends of the field because Kimmy spun flags and Nathan was on the oh so amazing rifle line. They remained distant friends until the fateful trip to the Seattle Bowl at the end of the season. Much to Kimmy’s delight, Nathan volunteered to sit by her on the bus. The trip to Seattle flew by as they talked and quickly became friends. The trip home was the interesting part…. The day had been long and they both fell asleep. Nathan, thinking Kimmy was awake, leaned over and kissed her (to this day neither party knows why). Kimmy was definitely very asleep and was surprised by this unusual awakening. Obviously this left things very awkward. Slowly Nathan worked up the courage and in early March of 2003 he began calling Kimmy on a regular basis and spending time with her.
Their relationship has not always been the easiest one, if it had been then there would be reason for concern. Over the last two and a half years Kimmy and Nathan have learned what makes each other tick, what ticks the other one off, and exactly where the other person is ticklish. True, the relationship has seen some very rough times as they have broken up and gotten back together twice but the reason they are together today is that they realized that life is brighter and more meaningful with the other one there.
Kimmy and Nathan will be living at 1750 Northview Blvd. #59 in Eugene Oregon until they find a duplex to buy. Currently they attend Berean Baptist Church where the reception of the century will be held. They have numerous plans together that include businesses, investments, moving to Spain, and world travel.
Update:
Nathan and Kimmy now live at 1735 w 10th Ave, Eugene, OR 97402. The two of them purchased their first home (and duplex) in December of 2007 and are enjoying married life.
Their business plans are starting to take root and their professional careers are progressing.
