Good things are worth waiting for.

Recently I have come to realize just how important patience is. I'm realizing how good things are worth waiting for. Dave and I waited 4 years before getting married. now we are waiting to start a family and to see what med school we get into. We wait for these grand things but we don't let a moment pass without realizing how lucky we are. We have had so much fun together and are so lucky to be so blessed.

The sweetheart Dance 2004, our first kiss.....3 month after hanging out every day. Don't know how we made it that long.

Driving Dave to the airport 2004

I have been feeling really nostalgic lately... being at BYU in the summer, I can't help but remember the first summer Dave and I met. It was June 2004. We met at the freshman orientation dance. Yes we used to dance. From that night on we spent EVERY day together and almost every hour we could spare... until Dave's mission. I have so many fond memories of laying under the stars just talking for hours on campus, or going on adventurous dates. Six years have past and a lot has changed, But I can honestly say I have loved him since that June night in 2004. Dave never gave up on my fickleness, but I couldn't have been more stupid to not act a few years earlier to snatch up good things like Dave and never let them go. I feel so grateful to have such a wonderful man by my side through thick and thin. My love for him is stronger than it has ever been. I feel blessed to be able to share his struggles and honored to help lift him when he's down. He has helped me become who I am today and has helped me have so much joy that I never even imagined having in life.

They never said life would be easy but man is it worth it when you have such a wonderful man.
