To keep me sane....

So in the next couple of weeks the "busyness" of day to day life is going to quadruple!! This week I am helping to put on an event that the Society of Women Engineers puts on once a semester (I am the activities officer) and I still have to work, as well as classes and the mounds of homework I get every week. I also will be starting to prepare for my two engineering exams next week. Obviously due to this Jason and I will not be seeing each other very much.

Tonight we spent two hours eating dinner and playing 3 games of Settlers and this ended in laughing and endless smiles as it always does. As you know Sundays usually come before Mondays and I am extremely bummed. I thought to make my weeks go better I would share one or two things about our future wedding to also give me something FUN to think about.

So here is number one,we have chosen our flower!!! I know that Nathan and Kalli had gerbera daisies, but we will be having only yellow gerbera daisies, (yellow is my favorite color!). I know that if I start chosing things now it will be a lot easier when the wedding gets closer. And it will also probably feel like the time between now and then is forever, but hey I am already excited so I am going to show it!! Happy Sunday!!

Divine Intervention

On August 4th 2007 the Lord blessed me with my best friend. Jason and I agree that we were both in a place where we needed friendship and someone to belong to when we met. I met Jason 12 days before I left for College. We spent each night together. Either going to a movie or playing twenty questions at a park. On the eleventh night of knowing Jason, he took me to Daniel's Park to look at the stars. When he began to dive me back home I looked out the window and thanked God for showing me some good in the world. Jason.

I remember that night better then the rest because when I got home I sat in front of my house and cried. I thought "why, why would this wonderful person come into my life right before I had to leave"? I also remember promising myself that night that if this were to end ever, I would be thankful for the time I had with Jason. The next night Jason made me feel better I never asked him if we would still talk or what would happen, I guess I didn't want to know. He still made me happy. That is what matters right?

The morning that I left for school he talked to me, and every morning after that. I didn't expect this. Jason tells me now he wanted to be with me and an hours drive wouldn't have changed that feeling. I am so glad. Jason came to visit a couple weeks into school, and he did this the entire year we spent apart. The second year Jason moved up to Fort Collins and we have been inseparable since. Yesterday was our third Valentines Day together. I am so happy I met him, and I will never break my promise to myself. I will always be thankful for the time with him.
