Our Story: By The Jordans

We met when we were five.
Our moms were good friends and we went to church together.
Whitney rigged the office helper selection in junior high just to get to work with Kevin.
We started dating in high school, went to a few dances together and took French together.
Kevin went to Notre Dame and Whitney went to Indiana University.
4 hours apart for 4 years = no problem for us.
Kevin surprised Whitney by proposing on Christmas Eve of 2003.
Got married in July 2004, honeymooned in Orlando
and promptly moved across the country.
Kevin started his PhD program and Whitney became his cheerleader.
Kevin got his masters and Whitney followed suit.
We adopted two boy cats and we L.O.V.E. them.
Life is good.

Happy 8th Anniversary, Love!
