Ten Years

Today it has been 10 years since the day Tyson and I first met. We met at Weber State University in Ogden Utah. He had just come home from a mission to Portugal and was totally weird still. I had just transferred to Weber from Dixie and was really lonely because most of my roommates were awful and I hadn't made any new friends yet. We met at a church meeting at our Singles Ward that was for all the people who were new to the ward. We had to stand up and introduce ourselves. When he said his name I thought maybe he was related to a girl who I played Volleyball against in High School. So after the meeting I went up to ask him about it. There were tons of people in the hall and I kept getting pushed closer and closer to him and he was getting more and more uncomfortable because he hadn't been that close to a girl in two years (for all my friends who aren't LDS, he had been on a Mission for our church and they aren't allowed to have anything to do with girls for the whole 2 years). It turns out that he thought I was pretty aggressive! We actually didn't start dating for about 2 months (I started dating another guy that I met the same day instead. He turned out to be pretty boring.) and then one day Tyson needed a date for a double date with a friend. He had talked to every girl he could think of and then he saw me, asked for my number, and called the same day to ask me out. We spent almost 2 years dating and then finally got married! And it's been sweet bliss ever since! Well...mostly! :)
