Heather
Hi, I am Heather Lynn Jones (Soon to be Mrs. Heather Lynn Head). I will be 19 when
we get married. I have lived in Ramona my entire life (subtract the three months
of living in the dorms at UCSD). God is number one in my life, and I am striving
to live for Him more every day. I absolutely love my family, my fiancé, and my friends.
I am so excited to be married and start a family of my own, and have my extended
family grow. I love helping people, and love to spend time with those I love.
I am currently attending Palomar community college to get my GE out of the way (I
realized this was smarter than spending the hundreds of dollars a unit at UCSD).
I hope to transfer to SDSU after one more year at Palomar and begin my upper division
classes. I want to major in child development, so I can help kids and learn how
to raise my children better in the future.
How we met (as written by Heather): I made a promise when
I started high school that I wouldn’t date until after I graduated. I accomplished
my goal and then prayed that God would bless me for waiting, and bless me with a
Godly man. I never thought I would find anyone, that I thought I was destined to
be alone forever. I was wrong.
Nicholas and I have been acquaintances for several years through the church. We
started talking when I was working in the Higher Grounds Coffee Shop and he was
running sound at Summit. He would come up every week and just talk to me about random
topics and always order a coffee, asking me to make it. I was very oblivious to
the fact that he liked me, and thought we were just joking around. We started emailing
each other back and forth between Sundays and on September 1st, 2006 he asked me
out for the first time.
We had our first “date” 2 days later at Islands with his family and our great friends
Heather and Jason Winters. From then on, we were inseparable. I went away to college
16 days later, but by God’s grace and Nicholas’ patience we were able to stay together
and grow even closer. Even after only 1 month of dating, I knew he was the one for
me. He felt the same way shortly thereafter, and on April 23rd, 2007 he proposed
to me at Disneyland. We are meant for each other, and I can’t wait to spend the
rest of my life with the man of my dreams.

Nicholas
Hi, my name is Nicholas Andrew Head. I will be 25 when we are married. I too have
spent my entire life in Ramona (unless you count a short time in Poway as a baby...)
I was blessed to be raised in a household that placed importance in high moral values,
and knowing what is right and what is wrong. This led me to the Truth, that Jesus
died for my sins, and because of that, I can have eternal life in Him. I am a follower
of Christ, first and foremost.
I am currently working fulltime as a programmer/web developer for LewisTech, a job
which I love and am very blessed to have.
How we met (as written by Nicholas): I had dated in high
school briefly, and knew I hadn't found something of substance. I promised to myself,
and to God, that I would wait on His timing, and never "settle" for second best.
This was very difficult, as I'm sure we all can attest to. But I stuck with it,
and eventually (randomly) discovered that the woman I was destined to be with was
always near me. I just had to get the courage to talk to her!
I have been attending Mountain View Community Church for almost 17 years now. As
I was growing up involved in the church, Heather was growing up too and attending,
albeit slightly younger (her and I are seperated by six years.) It wasn't until
last year when I finally "noticed" that she was all grown up, working in the Summit
service coffee shop.
I would flirt and talk with her, thinking that "yeah right, like I have a chance."
After striking up further conversation over e-mail, we officially started to "date"
on Sept. 1st, 2006. It was actually less like "dating" and more just being each
other's best friend.
 After
a quick month, I knew Heather was the one I wanted to marry. After some help from
her friends (thanks Jessica and Melissa!) I was able to find the perfect ring for
Heather, and surprised her on April 23rd, 2007 by proposing in front of Disneyland.
I cannot wait to be married to Heather. As cheesy as it sounds, she does complete
me, and make me a better man. I never thought I'd ever find someone like this (hey,
just ask my friends about my whining.) But this is proof that God has a plan for
everything.
.. And they lived happily ever after. |
