One of the traditions we have come to enjoy together is the annual Halloween theme party with some of the other crazies of Fremont County. The first year we went was when we were dating and the theme was "house hold heroes." Just try to figure out what we are! The next year we had the party at the new DePatco building and the theme was High School cliques. Dan was a great sport and went as a Sugar Salem cheerleader. Don't be fooled, he really did enjoy the experience, and it is one I don't think he will ever live down..."My name is Dan. I am the Man!" Next party in 2007 we were the MEN IN BLACK for the "Out of this world" theme. If you think our costumes are good...you should check out some of our friends...Weston & Mandi, Jon & Bonnie, Justin & Jenni, etc.

Dan and I were set up by the employees of the dentist office that we both went to back in 2005. We knew a lot of the same people, but never knew of each other even though we only lived 11 miles apart.

Daniel Stoddard grew up in Egin, Id, but we wont hold that against him. He graduated from South Fremont many moons ago, then from Ricks College and Utah State with a degree in accounting. After enjoying a couple years of work in Vernal, Ut, Dan came back home to work for the family excavation company, DePatco.

Brooke Holman Stoddard was superly lucky to grow up in the wonderful and beautiful Sugar City, Id. She graduated from Sugar Salem, then thru the summers she worked her tail off :) on the road crew and attended school at BYU-I and eventually gained a general assosicate degree and then her nursing degree. She (or I) am currently working at the hospital in Rexburg.
