Sam is from Idaho- a tiny little town called Oakley, and Melanie is from Utah-too many places to list! They met in Fairbanks, AK in May 2006, about 2 weeks after she moved up. In the singles branch they got called to be Family Home Evening co-chairs. Apparantly someone thought they'd need practice for eternity!! Sam had been there for about a year beforehand. It's a good thing- he had time to scope it all out before Melanie arrived so he knew all the cool places to go! They started hanging out and got to be really clsoe friends. After a while they started dating and Sam wasn't sure what he wanted but Melanie did, and she can be stubborn!! She wasn't backing down. They got engaged that fall, and married on January 12, 2007 in the Bountiful, UT Temple. It was amazing. Sam and Melanie are both glad she was so stubborn!
