9/11

I'm sure everyone remembers where they were on 9/11. We're on the West Coast, so we were still asleep when my mom called to say we were under attack. We turned on the TV and couldn't believe our eyes. I didn't go into work and it turns out they sent everyone home. We were across the street from LAX and they were worried there would be more attacks. My co-worker said it was eerie with no flights going in or out of the airport.

It was 5 days before our first anniversary and 4 days before Rod and Natalie's wedding. One of their groomsmen couldn't get out of NYC, but the rest of the festivities went off without a hitch. Some people may not think so, but it was the perfect time for a wedding: celebrating friends and family at an unbelievable time.

That night we decided to start a family and Rachel was born the following July.
