So I found this picture of Preston and I from back when we were dating... barely dating. Look at little and cute he was! All gap-toothed and everything. It's no wonder I fell for him after one date! For those of you who don't know our dating story . . . well you are in for a treat. Back in Nov 2007 I sent the love of my life off on a mission, promising that I would wait. Now refer to the date on the picture . . . yeah, just a few weeks later. Well, actually I met Preston the SAME WEEK my missionary left. The Lord works in mysterious ways. We were seriously in love after the first day and saw each other at least 2x a week during the months of Nov and Dec while he still lived in Kaysville. He would often drive up to Logan after working a full day, stay till 5 or 6 in the morning and then drive home and go back to work without sleeping. My parents insisted they KNEW we were the real deal when I spent my 3 week vacation in Hawaii on the phone with this boy from Kaysville, Utah. And it's true. We were engaged in February and married in June 2008. I can hardly believe that it has been almost 2 years since we were married. I love him more than I ever thought I could love anyone. He is truly who I was supposed to be with for eternity. So here's to crazy love stories! If you got one that can top that . . . let me know!
