The year Shauna and Chris were married, 1986, they were attending Utah State University. Shauna got a job checking at Smith's in Logan. As she was leaving at the end of her shift one day, a young oriental woman rushed up to her and affectionally put her arm around her, "Oh, how are you, it's so good to see you", she said. Shauna having no idea who she was, and didn't know her from Adam, replied, "I think you must have me confused with someone else." Blushing the girl suddenly apologized, "I'm so sorry, you Americans all look alike!"
