Both Hosea and Heidi were born in small towns.  Hosea was born and raised in Kountze, Texas.  He has 1 brother and 4 sisters.  Hosea is the proud father of  Tavoris Bottley, (age 22) and Falon Bottley (age 12) and we are expecting our first child together in February 2008!!  Hosea spent 9 years in the Navy, which brought him to Seatlle.  After the Navy, Hosea started working in the moving industry and has been at Mitchell Moving ever since where he has been very successful in Internation Relocation!  Hosea likes to spend his free time watching sports, spending time with his family, and in the gym working out and playing basketball!  Spurs, Cowboys and Longhorns are the only teams that are allowed to be represented around our house! 

Heidi was born and raised in Livingston, Montana and has 2 sisters and 1 foster brother.  She moved to Spokane in her high school years and eventually over the mountains to Seattle.  For the past 3 years, Heidi has been working in Property Mangement for Weidner Investment Services.  Heidi loves to spend time with her family and Hosea's kids, travel, and watch sports also!

It depends on which one of us is telling the story...I will say that Hosea persued me for 10 years and Hosea will tell you that he just gave me time to get "20's" out of my system before I realized what a "good catch" he was! 

Hosea and I met 10 years ago at Azteca!  I was a cocktail waitress and Hosea was a cocktail conisseur :).  For years we talked about getting together for dinner but we both were very busy and would only communicate intermitantly, until one day in 2004 when we ran into each other at the home of a mutual friend.  A few days later, Hosea came into Azteca again, aked me to dinner, and we have been together ever since!  When we look back on things now, we realized that everything happened with just the right timing!
