counting down the days...
as most of you may know, david and i are getting married on oct. 22, 2010. :) everybody says that planning a wedding is fun, yeahhhhh maybe if you are a little girl and don't actually have to do it for real it is, but when it gets down to the nity gritty, it isn't as much fun as people make it seem. david asked me to marry him, on July 31st. a lot of you may ask how he proposed, but that is a secret. :) lol. and it will remain a secret, so don't try to pry for information. anyways, moving on, as far as the engagement has been or the planning, engagement, great, planning, STRESSFUL! sometimes there are times where i just want to give up planning, i don't think without david or my friends, or future in laws, i would survive. lol. but seriously, while i'm planning this i'm sitting wonder if my hair is going to turn gray or if i'm gonna just going to pull it all out. . . i just can't wait to get married and be done with everything and finally live my happily ever after with my future husband.

one year later :)
W.O.W. one year, how do i even describe in words how great that year was... just to throw out a few words, amazing, awesome, exciting, fun, exilerating, romantic... the list goes on... just to elaborate on a few of those words, first one, exilerating, david took me on my first motorcycle ride, well, "crotch rocket", it was the second day that we were dating, he says to me, "lets go for a ride on my bike, i promise i'll be careful..." i was so scared that i was clinging onto him for dear life! lol. i won't say that it wasn't thrilling, but it was only day two that we were dating, and i trusted him with my life, crazy huh?! lol.
David is an amazing man. i couldn't have asked for a better friend or companion. he's so patient, kind, loving, comforting. he's a great friend, and a great companion. i enjoy being with him and having fun with him, he's so unpredictable at times that it makes our relationship fun. :)
God has blessed me so much over the past year, recently someone told me that i should cherish every single moment i have witht him. which is true, i don't think there has been a time that i haven't cherished with him, even when we've had our disagreements, i'm glad that we love each other enough to correct each other when one is wrong.
just to share some good memories, this past month david and i went fishing, (david is a fishing fool!)anyways, i finally caught my first fish since i was like 9 or 10. i think david was more excited than i was about catching the fish. he has taken me fishing a bunch of time over the past year, and i have caught nothing until then. another fun time was our first roadtrip, we went to see david's dad michael for fathers day, man was that interesting, driving really late at night, rockin out to some music that was pretty fun. :) another one of my favorite memories is when i bought my bettle, he had me convinced that i wasn't getting my car, i was so mad i got home and he said something to make me mad, i stomped inside, and he disappeared for awhile, and a few minutes later he comes back inside to tell me that my car was in the garage, i said that if it was in the garage i was going to be mad, he says, "walk out there and see." so i walked out there, and there was my car, needless to say i wasn't mad. . . lol. that was a great surprise.
i'm just glad that i have david in my life, and i pray that we have many more years to come with each other. :)

May 30, 2010
Almost a year! :) It's been a very fast year, who knew time could go by so quick? Tonight David bought us a nintendo wii for our ONE YEAR anniversary. Can you believe it? A YEAR... :) I can honestly say that this past year has been the best year of my life. I never knew what true love was, he showed me what true love was through patience, honesty, he taught me to trust, which i used to struggle with trusting people. When i met david, i wasn't looking for a relationship, and neither was he, but for some reason God knew we needed each other, not only to heal from past wounds but we found that we were meant for each other, he is the other half to my heart, the missing piece to my puzzle of life, someone to always be there for me. I could not ask for more, i have a roof over my head, food in my stomach, and a new job, and a man that loves me no matter what. :) I know that he would give me the world if i really wanted it, but the only thing i want is him, forever. i know that no guy would ever love me the way he does, and i thank God everyday for him. not a day goes by that i'm not thankful for him. we have our fights, i'd much rather stand in the freezing rain with him than in the warm arms of anybody else. i'm very thankful for the year God has given to us and i pray that we have many more great ones like this one. :)

11 Months Later...
David and I started officially dating June 5th 2009. I would have to admit the day that we starting dating was the best day of my life. I never thought i would meet a man as great as him. :) He is so perfect in so many ways, I know technically that no man could ever be perfect, but he's perfect enough for me. :) There are so many reasons that I love David, he's such a great friend, and a great man to love. He's my best friend, I'm so lucky to be in love with my best friend. :) There is not a day that goes by that I don't thank God for introducing me to David and putting him into my life and my heart.
The back story of before I met David, I graduated high school in May of 2008. I went to a christian high school, and I went to church with my legal guardians. I got a job and started college in the Fall of 2008 at TVCC, a community college, which was also a secular college. I was no longer in the protective place of my christian high school, I know had to start making my own decisions. I started working on sundays and i had no desire to go to church on wednesdays, within that year, I walked away from God, getting me to go to church was like pulling teeth, I never wanted to go, and I was involved with things my legal guardians didn't approve of, i.e. drinking, partying, etc... anyways, within the time period of Sept. 2008-May 2009 I was involved with bad people, and I made bad choices. I'm glad I met David. I have had many people save my life over and over, whether it be a "foster" family type situation, to people taking legal guardianship of me, and I meeting someone that I didn't know that would change my life forever, I tell people that David probably saved my life, I was hanging out with the wrong crowd, one of my friends was a big influence on my life, he recently died of a heroin overdose, I tell people that if I hadn't met David i probably would have been in the casket right next to my friend.
God is good. All the time.
I know God loves me very much, because God has saved me over and over and forgiven me over and over for my sins. God is merciful, and loving, and he'll always be there with open arms and he may seem like he has left you, but in all reality he hasn't. He's just testing your faith in him. A few weeks ago David and I starting doing couples devotions together, reading the book of Proverbs, and reading a devotional book for couples called "The Love Dare". In addition, I'm also glad David and I have found a new church, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, the church family there. They were warm and welcoming. I hope we continue going there and continue growing in God and in ourselves and with each other.
