2nd Wedding Anniversary
So I thought today that I would do a bio of me and my husband...
So when I just graduated high school I moved to Farmington NM with my cousin Katrina... We were so excited to be out on our own and just go to school... I didn't have a boyfriend at the time and I didn't want one either! (In high school I dated the same guy for 2 1/2 years I was done with bf's) Well in the LDS church they have a ward called the singles ward and that's where you are around people your age. They have classes that you can learn more about the book of Mormon and the bible. On Monday's they have FHE (family home evenings) where we play games and just hangout and have a total blast!!! So when I was in institute (classes) I saw a guy walk in who was tall and handsome...AND a cowboy!!! So of course at that moment I was like my type of guy but I was thinking of just being friends cause remember I didn't want a boyfriend... Lets just say we started talking and he asked me out on dates all the time...I wasn't ready tho so we would make it a huge group date every time... I felt bad but I was 18 and he was a returned missionary and come on he so wanted to get married!!! So for about 10 months I dodged the bullet and we never got serious or anything and that was my plan... But at the end of the spring semester I went threw one of the hardest times of my life...My wonderful grandmother who was the most wonderful woman you could have been around was in the hospital taking her last breaths... and at that time "the cowboy" was txting me and lets just say it was so nice having someone out of the family truly care for me and want to be there for me...
A couple of weeks later "the cowboy" asked if I would go to a Kenny Chesney concert with him... Of course I said yes who wouldn't its a concert!!! But I had a reservation about him cause he was a returned missionary and I was so not ready to get married... But my wise older sis Stacey gave me some words to hold on to...Then lets say from there we starting seeing each other almost everyday and a month in a half later he proposed!!! (See he totally wanted to get married!!!) But in those days of us dating I fell deeply in love with him and I'm so greatful that I let him in my life... He is my best friend and I'm so greatful that he chased after me for 10 months and didn't give up...I would have been the one who missed out on the best thing that could have happened to me...
We got married 4 months later on Oct. 13th 2007. This year we will be celebrating 3 years together... And in August I will be sealed to this wonderful man...
So "the cowboy" knew what he wanted and lets say with hard work and not giving up he got it!!!
