When we first met

Jace and I started dating the beginning of January...after having hung out with his friend a few times. Oops! Our first date was Wednesday, January 9th, we had gone out for Jamba Juice to celebrate me getting a new job. We have been together everyday since except for that Thursday and Sunday. The following week I was on the phone with a good friend and I told her that I was going to marry this boy. As she replied with "what the"? I said "I'm just kidding I don't know, But I'd love to" I remember talking to one of my best friends aka his cousin I told her that I love him. I didn't want to tell him that because I didn't want to chance scaring him away. Madi then did some scoping and soon let me know that she was pretty sure he was in love with me back. About a week later we were laying on the couch watching a movie and I said "if you love me you'll scratch my back" he replied, "you're right'. What? You love me?! a few minutes, maybe an hour or so he told me he loved me...and that has been our favorite and most used phrase ever since. We have gone to movies, celebrated my birthday with family and friends, visited Chris, Tatti and Nash in St. George, shopped in Vegas, and we have had an absolute blast doing it all! Jace and I knew we were getting married after a few short weeks of dating. If you ask him he'll tell you he knew first but to be honest I did. Jace and I have both agreed that if we would had met even a month earlier we would not have been ready...but it turns out God really does have a hand in all things. He's truly everything that I have ever wanted and so much more. It's weird to be so in love with someone and having the feelings be mutual...For all you single girls still reading this. Don't settle, don't think you don't deserve that perfect man, and most of all don't give up. Believe it or not all those silly things in the past; the relationships that didn't end up working out, the heart ache, and complete confusion it all becomes so worth it when you have met the right one. So here's to meeting the right person, the right timing, having more patience and faith than you ever thought you had within you, and trusting that God really has a plan for you! I feel so blessed and am so grateful for the man that I can soon call mine.
