The beginning

Alright so were going to see how this goes...  It seems like everyone has a blog now a days so why not?!  We'll see how much I actually post... my goal is at least once a month but we will see!

Not sure where to start but I guess the best place is to always start at the beginning so here it goes!...

I had been living at Crestwood for 8 months and was looking at moving back home to save for a mission. I had printed my papers but never officially started them.  I had this nagging feeling I shouldn't go and after talking with bishop decided against it.  I was pretty bummed and didn't know why I had a bad feeling but I soon found out the reason.  One fine Sunday I knew I was being released from my current calling as relief society secretary and I thought it was odd bishop was the one who had to release me so I should have seen it coming... released as secretary and called as Pres... Holy moly!  So no more moving I was staying!  Trevor got called as executive secretary a few weeks after.  We didn't really know one another but we got to know each other pretty quick.  Being in meetings for 3 hours before church each Sunday and then hanging around bishops office after church you get to know people pretty quick.

My first impression, as much as I hate to admit it, was kind of shallow.  I thought he was really cute but to short!  I was so focused on going on a mission so I took my calling as my new mission and only wanted to focus on my girls.  I was done dating I was sick of men!  The more we talked and the more I heard him share his thoughts and testimony in meetings the more I started liking him.  The more I started liking him the more I started thinking... hmmm... I could give up my heels for this guy (which is huge I might add I LOVED my heels!).

We started hanging out and Trevor will tell the story different but I know I'm right cuz were always right, right girls?!  We went running a few times, played guitar, watched the office and saw each other fairly frequently for a couple of weeks.  We had pretty much hung out everyday.  I couldn't take it anymore so I called him out on it one afternoon which happened to be the same day he was planning on calling me and asking me on a date.  Good thing I had left my Saturday open in case he asked me out!

Well its history from there.  We went on our first date and it didn't take long for both of us to fall in L-O-V-E!  We got engaged on Thanksgiving in Zions and were married in the Draper temple February 3, 2012.

So that's our story!  Now that I caught you up on the before part I'll catch you up on the last 8 months of our lives in the next blog!
