52 QUESTIONS IN 52 WEEKS: QUESTION # 2

2. When and where were you born? Describe your home, your neighborhood, and the town you grew up in.

I was born on October 14, 1991 at Jordan Valley Hospital.  Our family lived in Riverton, UT at the time (and my parents still live there).  Our grey brick house on 13146 S 2050 W is the only home I've ever known. 
  

I loved where I was raised.  I had many friends and loved the neighborhood.  Our house was the only one in the neighborhood with a wishing well.  I thought that was so neat!  It was an easy thing to spot for anyone trying to find our house.  Our backyard was very big compared to others'.  It was the perfect yard for playing and running around.  Recently, my dad converted his shed into a backyard movie screen.  We have hosted many neighborhood movie nights, and many family events.  I always appreciated my dad and his dedication to making sure the yard was nice and trimmed. 


I always dreamed of having my wedding reception in my backyard, and that dream actually came true!  

Our wedding - July 25, 2013.  Sitting in the back of dad's (given to him by Grandpa Peterson) '66 Chevrolet in the backyard.  We used the truck to hold wedding gifts.

A nice view of the yard during our wedding reception. 

Our send-off!  Here we are coming out of the south gate into the front yard. 
We lived near the Riverton Elementary School (where I attended).  I could walk across the street, jump over our neighbor's backyard fence and then be in the school playground.

Our house was just west of Riverton Elementary
