Tell us about your first date:
I picked up Christina from her work and we took a nice drive to Horseshoe Bay. We had coffee and tea, and went for a walk around the village.
How did you propose?
Five months after meeting her, I proposed to Christina at the Canadian Cancer Society's annual Diamond Ball, at the Fairmont Vancouver Hotel.
The proposal was before the event at our suite in the hotel because I wanted her to have a diamond for the Diamond Ball.

Sept. 19, 2009, at St. Francis in the Wood in West Vancouver, with reception at Mt. Seymour Golf and Country Club.

We enjoy working out, dinners at local restaurants, walking in the Cove, hosting friends for dinner, and most of all spending time with our 17-month-old daughter, Grace.
What is your secret for lasting love?
Good communication and laugh off the little challenges life throws at you. Love unconditionally, it's the only way.
What are your plans for Valentine's Day?
We plan to relax at home with filet mignon and a great cabernet from Christina's work.
