A Moment

Have you ever had one of those moments?  A moment when you know you are in a certain place, at a certain time, with a certain someone, and the only word that I can think to explain it is.. destiny.  A moment so perfect where life just stops.

The other day I came home from work and was very frustrated with my job.  I had a horrible day at work, there were bills waiting to be paid, and a sink full of dishes waiting to be cleaned.  I guess you could say that I had a very bad, no good, rotten day. When Justin got home, we did our nightly ritual of showering, eating, watching tv and unwinding for the night.  We got tired and went to bed.  As I laid in bed waiting for Justin to brush his teeth I contemplated my day and dreaded having to do it all again in the morning.  Justin has always done a good job at making me laugh and feel better after I get home from work.  I remember him coming in the room singing and dancing.  I laughed.  He turned the lights, got in bed and immediately rolled over and kissed me on the forehead, told me he loved me, and just held me in his arms.  That was the moment.  The moment where I felt completely in love and content with my entire life.

As Justin fell asleep, my thoughts turned from dreading life to thinking how lucky I was to be living the life I live.  I have a home, food, television, AC ( I would have DIED this summer without it), and most importantly the most amazing man who loves and cares for me so much more than I ever can deserve. I love him.  I love him more than I ever thought I would.  We have been through so much together.  I started to think how I got to where I am now in life.  I am so grateful that on a Friday night in February 2 1/2  years ago I decided to ditch the institute activity that night and go on a date with some guy.  That some guy became my guy, and my life.  

Pookie

Wow.  I haven't blogged in forever!  While my recent hiatus from the blogging world, I have been spending quite a bit of time with this really cool guy.... I guess he's alright.

 We have known and hung out with each other for more than 2 years now.  We officially got together in June and then 6 months later he decided that he liked it, so he put a ring on it!

I love him!  It's so crazy that I have one month until I get married to my absolute best friend.  I never thought that I would get married until I was at least 25.  But I am so dang excited!  I can not believe that I found someone so perfect.

I love that he knows every song  that comes on the radio, and who sings it, after the first few notes.  I love when he sings.  His voice is amazing.  I love when he dances along with the music. That boy gots moves.

I love that he tickles me all of the time just so he can hear me laugh.

I love that he can tell when something is bugging me without me ever saying anything.

I love when he kisses me on the forehead for no reason.

I love that he is goofy. and I love all of the stupid, funny inside jokes that we have.

I love when he uses those cheesy, but smooth lines on me.

I I love that when I call him Pookie he rolls his eyes and says 'oh boy' but still let's me call him it :)

I love that when I am sick or when a friend asks for a Priesthood blessing he is ready and worthy to give one at any moment.

I love that we can talk about absolutely anything.

I love that he takes me to soccer games when I know he isn't too fond of the sport.  (we are working on that ;)

I love that he is always asking me how people in my family are doing.

I love that he has breakfast with his grandpa once every week and loves calling his grandma to talk about the latest Jazz game with her.

I love when he is around little kids.  He is going to be such a good poppa.

I love when I cry he wipes away my tears and scoops me up in his arms.

I love how close he is to his family and how much he loves and cares for each and every one of them.

I love that he took my dad to Carl's Jr. when he asked my dad for permission to marry me.

I love watching sports with him.  We both can get a little too into it.  It helps that we like all of the same teams.  ( I swear it's true.  I am not the type of girl to change my beloved teams for a guy :)

I love his kisses.  Seriously, he is thee best kisser.

I love how hard he works.

I love that he wears shorts all of the time, snow or sunshine, he is crazy.

I love that he fulfills his church calling, even when it seems to be hard and a burden at times.

I love that whenever we fight or argue, we always work through it and learn from it.

I love that we are getting married in the temple and that I get to spend forever with the most amazing man! :)
