Love Story-A New Direction

Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 of our Love Story:

Part 4:
Warning; not going to talk much about me and my husband in this entry, but it still brought me closer to him...
After the break up, I honestly wasn't sure what to do with my life; because he was my life. Well through out time, I decided to pray. I prayed for what direction I should go next, for new opportunities in my life. I also prayed about the guy I wanted to marry.

• A best friend like I was with my previous best friend.
• Someone who made me laugh non-stop.
• Dark hair, light eyes.
• Amazing back, didn't matter about the stomach.
• Someone who knows about hard work.
• Who thinks like a millionaire.
• Very spiritual!
• A Return Missionary (I also thought that it didn't matter if he wasn't, but I wanted a return missionary kind of mind. Who learned so much within his mission.
• Who had a motorcycle.
• A country man.
• Fantastic smile.

I only prayed about this once!

Then I needed to find a new direction for my life; what's next. What is something that I need to do to become the young women that I am going to become to marry that guy.

I prayed every single day, I read the scriptures every single day, I gained more knowledge about the gospel then I ever did before. I loved every moment. I gained more friends. There's this one friend who stood out the most out of the others; Brooke. We became instant friends! I had moved out of my friend's house and into a place where my ex boyfriend's mom home taught at. I still was great friends with my ex boyfriend's family. I still went over there whenever I can, I knew that his little sister loved my company. Other than me loving to go to their house and spend time with them, including when Trent was out on his mission; I didn't quite feel completely myself. But then again as I think of it, it took me awhile to get completely myself with my in-laws.

I am glad that my ex boyfriend's mom helped me find a place, because I did not want to move back to my parents house. I still wanted to stay and gain more of what I am suppose to be. The place that I moved into, Brooke lived shorter than a mile away. We worked out together, we walked around her block and talked for hours and late in the evening. I honestly miss those evenings with her.

There was a friend in my institute class who invited me to temple night with the young single adults.

I thought to myself, why not and went!
As I was in the temple doing the baptisms I had gotten 3 things that stuck in my mind. One stood out to me the most;
I want to do more for the church. (I wasn't sure what that meant, until the next day when I was reading in the scriptures and thought--oh a mission!!

I then talked to my bishop the following Sunday and moved forward with everything!
started my papers and took me a month to finish them--
Getting my wisdom teeth was a huge pain. Not physically, because I felt completely fine!
I had a priesthood blessing with two of my greatest guy friends the day before (which I just love priesthood blessings, I don't ask for them a lot, unless I know that I really need them-and getting my wisdom teeth pulled with only my friends to be there for me; I just needed the extra comfort)

Got them out, had a friend take me home, had a guy friend bring me some donuts and heated up some spaghetti. I couldn't open my mouth all the way, but I still ate it. Then I had gone to the temple in LA from Palmdale. I had never missed a week to go to the temple! I didn't want to miss anything. I loved going; meeting new people and gaining so much. I did whatever I can and still enjoyed every moment.

The only thing I didn't like, was when I felt sick and car sick when we were driving back home. The drugs that I was on didn't help one bit. I stopped taking it that evening.
The next day; I went on a date to the beach!! Nothing and no one was going to stop me!!

Went on a date with a pretty handsome man too!! And he is now married to a very beautiful young women, really he did!! Saw him a few times up at school too, along with his brother. Love seeing friends on campus!!

So I had my wisdom teeth pulled and now the mission papers were DONE!!

Now for the wait!!
