The Beginning

Hale's Hall began, officially, on July 3rd 2007 in the Ogden, Utah, LDS Temple. We were brought together by a mutual friend. That seems so simple. In reality it is more complicated than that but there isn't room here to go in to all the details of our meeting and dating. We met on the 28th of November and were engaged on Valentine's day. We brought eleven children and 36 grand children into this union. Fortunately for the neighbors none of them live with us! We chose Logan, Utah, for our home where we are surrounded by beautiful mountains and our friends and neighbors. We are sad that not all of our family members live closer.

It seems like our marriage began with an unending series of honeymoons. The official one was to the Oregon Coast, at Newport, where we enjoyed the ocean and it's light houses. A couple of weeks later found us in Hawaii, on the island of Oahu's north east shore in a nice house. It was so peaceful! A couple of more weeks went by and we were in Island Park, Idaho in a huge lodge with Bob's family. Later on we took a road trip to Washington and Oregon to visit other family members.
