Klava was born on March 29th, 1987 in Togliatti, Russia to Irina and Dmitri. Klava moved to the United States when she was 12 years old with her mother and her sister, to Craig, Colorado. In Craig, is where Klava met Tony St. John (Ty's father) at the LDS church. Klava recalls sitting in church many times, looking over Tony, thinking: "man, if I ever find a man like that to marry, I would be a lucky lady!" Little did Klava know, that Tony had a son, who was living in Grand Junction at the time she was attending college there. Klava met Ty through who we now call "Papa" and connected with him through Facebook, which led to a date, which led to a happily ever after (see Our Story). Klava currently works as a Registered Nurse/Case Manager at Hospice and Palliative Care of Western Colorado in Grand Junction.

Klava says: More than anything else, I love to spend time with Ty and our sweet little daughter, Anastasia. We really enjoy going out to the lake, camping, playing at the park and taking opportunity every day to play and goof around with our little baby girl. Ty and I both work hard, often times opposite schedules, so we make sure to make every moment count when we are together. I feel truly blessed to have found such a wonderful man in my life. Not only is he a great father (yes, Anastasia is a daddy's girl), but he is truly the man of my dreams. I cannot wait to say "I do." :)

Tyrone was born on July 17th, 1976 in Tarzana, California to Maggie and Tony St. John.  Tyrone grew up in Craig, Colorado where he was a four sport letterman.  After graduation, Tyrone went on to continue his education (and to play football) at Mesa State College in Grand Junction.  Tyrone graduated with a BBA in Management with an emphasis in Human Resource Management in May 1999.  Tyrone is currently working at the Breckenridge Ale House Restaurant, where he is the Director of Good Drink.

Tyrone says: I really enjoy spending time with my two beautiful girls. I am so grateful to have two such wonderful, loving, caring women in my life that keep me in line. I do not have much time away from work, but in my free time, I try to make the best of it by spending it with my family and friends. I really enjoy watching football, baseball and other sports. Because of my busy work schedule, I try to relax when I can. Klava and I try to take trips outdoors when possible with our little girl, as she is full of energy. I consider myself a very lucky man and I am very grateful. I cannot wait to marry the woman that swept me off of my feet.
