It has been awhile again, and I have tons of up-dates, I went to Carlie and Jared Davis’ wedding in Utah. Then, I went to Rexburg for a week. It was strange being there and not living there. I felt a little out of place, but mostly, I had fun. I saw Jethro. He’s still a good guy, but I’ve moved on from him. He really did bless my life. I wish him the best. I miss Angie and Mandy already. So much will change. I love it and hate it all together. When I came home from my visit, I was so focused and ready to leave for the MTC. I’m still ready, but I think I distract myself. I went to the temple 3 days ago. It was…different and scary and wonderful all together. I went again yesterday for Taralee and Bryson Revees’ wedding. It was much better the second time. I still struggle, but that was ok. I really do love the temple. I’m excited for when there will be a check mark in the sealing box after my mission!!!
Speaking of boys . . . (I know! I’m crazy!) I don’t want to say too much, because I don’t want to dwell on it or mess it up, but I’ve been writing a friend for 14 months who is serving in Russia. He writes me too. Who know what will happen, but what a cool story. Tyler Lloyd and I met at BYU-I (see journal pg. 9). We’ll write during our missions and then . . . I think that would be neat. He is really awesome. Everyone likes Tyler. I’m just buying my last items for my mission. 3 weeks!!!
Looking Back Now-
I have always been boy crazy. Apparently, I was still boy crazy 3 weeks before I left on my mission-dumb. I am sure glad that my thoughts about what would happen to Tyler and I came to be true. It was exactly what I wanted. I actually had a very good idea that we would marry a long time before he left on his mission. It was not a love at first sight kind of thing. We just simply had a great connection and friendship from the beginning and fell in love while writing each other over 2 ½ years. What a great way to build a relationship, by the way. Also, I write about Tyler a lot in my mission journal, but I was not a distracted missionary. Missionary work is too hard to be distracted.
I've always been boy crazy too. I think that's why I didn't date in high school...it wouldn't have been good for me.
ReplyDeleteEveryone DOES like Tyler. You guys are very good together (or at least it appears that way!).
