JUNE 8, 2011
This is the day that I met (officially) the man of my dreams. ( and yes he WAS the man of my dreams at that point). To give you a back ground of the story, Henry Miles came home from his mission April 8,2011. He gave his home coming talk that Sunday, and that's when I knew. I spent my time "stalking" him.. trying to talk to him, drooling over his adorableness, trying to get him to notice me... I even talked to him and he was looking at me and then looked away.. it was like I was invisible.. ( he doesn't remember this). So I thought I would give up..for a while. WELL on June, 8th we had a singles ward activity up Hobble Creek canyon. I saw my friend talking to him and when she came up to say hi I let her know I had a crush on him. well she invited me over to talk and that was the beginning..
this is shortly after we started dating.
JUNE 22,2011
So after we met (Officially) Henry and I hung out.. a lot. Any chance I could I would ask if he wanted to come along to an activity or hang out.. It was a fun time. On June 22, 2011 I was house sitting for a friend and some of my girlfriends came up and we went out and had dinner, and then after that Henry came up to Lehi and hung out with me for a bit. We just sat and talked, getting to know each other. I just remember sitting there thinking " I really like this guy" but thinking that he didn't like me back. Well when we were saying our good byes that's when he showed me he liked me.... :) YUP, you guessed it.. he kissed me.. I just remember going inside and feeling Like i was in a dream.. I called my mom and pretty much screamed into the phone.. HE KISSED ME HE KISSED ME.. tehehe she was confused at what happened until I told her the Story. Shortly after that we became official. (July 4th)
APRIL 4, 2013
The day he asked me to MARRY HIM!! Henry and I dated for 2 years ( a week after we got married). I knew that after three months I wanted to marry him.. for him, it took a little longer.. but man did I learn patience. I didn't want to let this guy go, so I waited and waited until he was ready. On April 4th. I had class that night and I ended up leaving early cause my grandparents were coming into town and wanted to go out to dinner with my cousin, her husband, Henry and I. Well we had been talking about getting married and engaged and went ring shopping all of those good things. I kept bugging him, wondering when it was going to happen. So that night I left class early and we headed to Red Robin. When we were standing there waiting for my grandparents and cousin, He proceeded to tell me things about him proposing.. like how things that lead up to it were important, and how I had a loner ring ( we got ours custom made and it wasn't done) and to not be disappointed.. so on so forth.. I was sitting there wondering why he was telling me all this.. He also wanted to go play a new video game that he got after dinner.. so I agreed. So we ate, had a good time, said our goodbyes and headed down to Springville to his parents house. I sat there and watched him play his video game( mostly played on my phone while he did) and around 10 pm I let him know it was getting late.. when we were getting ready to go he asked if I wanted to go swing ( our spot) I said sure it's a nice night, I didn't have work the next day. We proceeded to go up stairs and he said I have to go to the bathroom..( go grab the ring) well we went to turn on the back porch light and it wouldn't turn on.. it was pitch black. so he lead me to the swing and we sat there and talked for a bit... we ended up talking about how we first started dating and how he was nervous to talk to my dad.. Well, he got up and was like "I'm going to shut the back gate so Gunner ( his dog) doesn't get out" I looked and since it was super dark couldn't really tell, but it didn't look like the back gate was open.. I hear a click and all of a sudden the whole back yard lights up with white Christmas lights.. he had wrapped every tree in his back yard.. stupid me was like "this is nice" and proceeded to move over so he can sit down.. well when he grabbed my hand to have me stand up, that's when it clicked.. I started bawling. I kept saying "Are you joking, I feel like your joking" and then he got down on one knee and pulled out the ring (the loaner one) that's when I started crying harder and of Course I said YES! we stood there and hugged and kissed and I couldn't believe it I was going to Marry the man of my dreams!
