Jason and I met in April at a class we had together called, "Personal Achievements" at BYU Idaho, also know as "The Burg" or "BYU I do". A little side note before I continue with this post. The reason why I reffer to BYU Idaho as "The Burg" is because Rexburg is freezing in the winter, its basically like a frozen icicle. Also referred to BYU Idaho as BYU I do, that is because the joke is you go there to get married. There are a lot of people who get married quickly, within their 1st semester or two. To tell you the truth I wasn't even planning on taking this class, but one of my good friends Sessely Sharp highly recommend it and convinced me to take it. It turned out to be a really great class, probably one of my favorites offered at BYU Idaho. I was so glad my friend told me to take it, and I am eternally grateful because that is where I met my eternal sweetheart! The teacher Bro. Christensen was the best teacher at BYU Idaho in my opinion. He always made class fun, exciting, and spiritual. There was always a great atmosphere in class. Anyway I remember the first day of class like it was yesterday, that was the first day we had met. I won't go into great detail because I told you about it on a previous blog post a while ago, but it was a good first day of class. Jason, however, doesn't remember it.... sad day.... Oh well I have forgiven him for that. We didn't date until a month later, and he officially asked me to be his girl friend on June 9th and that was also the day we had our first kiss... :) I will tell you about those later. Anyway we became official June 9th and we dated till Thanksgiving day November 24th, 2009, which is the day Jason purposed to me. :) We were officially engaged till March 28th, 2009, which was the day we were married in the Salt Lake temple. We took our honeymoon in Las Vegas, Nevada. We live in Orem, Utah in an fourplex. Our neighbors are three of my cousins. Jason works at Nu skin in down town Provo, Utah and he is studying Information Systems (computer stuff) at UVU (Utah Valley University) in Orem, Utah. I am working at a marketing company in American Fork, Utah called Sound Concepts. We don't have any kids yet, but sometime in the future we will. Jason is from Idaho Falls, Idaho and I am from Provo, Utah. Jason is the 3rd child of 4. He has an older brother Brion and an older sister Ganae and a younger sister Katie. I am the oldest of 5 children, my younger brothers are Drew, Cam, and Derek, my younger and only sister is Emily. Jason served his mission for the LDS Church in Tampico, Mexico.
Jason has many great qualities. He has a great sense of humor and makes me laugh everyday. I on the other had am a little more serious, so I guess we keep each other balanced. He is very kind, sensitive, and caring. He is always has me in mind. He is strong, smart, and loving. He forgives easily and says his sorry. He is very thoughtful and unselfish. He is very hard working and encouraging. He is supportive. He has a great laugh. He has great green eyes most of the time, sometimes they are blue. He is creative and observant. He can read my mind a lot of the time. Sometimes it is scary how well he can read my mind, and knows what I am thinking. Sometimes he quotes what I am thinking word for word even though I haven't told him what I am thinking. It is weird how well he knows me even though we've only been married for almost three years. He learns quickly, and picks up on things easily. He has a soft spot for little girls, they just melt his heart. We teach the 6-7 year olds in Primary, and the girls in the class all have a huge crush on him. He is the perfect man, husband, and someday he will be a good father. There are many more things I could say, but the best of all is, he is my handsome charming prince forever and I love him a lot!
Jason loves cars he is a car guy, which I am grateful for. He is knowledgeable on cars and is able to fix a lot of things on cars. When he was younger he had a 1965 Ford Mustang he rebuilt and he loved that car. He sold it to help pay for his mission. It was a forest green color with Crager rims. I am not a car person, I like them to drive though. I love animals. Jason had many cats growing up and one dog. He dog was his best friend and brother, his name was Buddy. Buddy was a German Shepard golden retriever mix, so a big dog. He had a very funny unique personality. Jason loved him and misses him. I had one cat and two dogs growing up. Our dog was a German Shepard named Thor. My family and I loved that dog. We also love our current dog, Missy, she is a Pomeranian. Jason dated a lot through out high school, but never had many serious girlfriends. I didn't date a ton in high school, but made a lot of friends. Jason was my first boyfriend and my first kiss. Jason worked at Chili's restaurant through out high school. I worked at a grocery store in Provo called Macey's. Jason liked working at Chili's. I didn't like working at Macey's, although I met a lot of good friends there.
Jason and I enjoy watching movies together. We enjoy going on walks together. We share our time between our families in Idaho, Utah, and Canada. We go to Canada to visit family, my Dad is from there. Jason and I don't really watch the same tv shows because we like very different tv shows. Jason is into more of the fantasy, sci-fi, and comedy where I am more a drama, soap opera, romantic comedy kind of a girl. I also like scary, intense, and romantic shows. We are busy with work and school, but we try to make the most out of the time we do get to spend with each other even though it isn't a lot.
Well that is about us, I hope you have enjoyed reading!
