Being Jason's Wife...

2010-06-06T23:36:00.000-07:00

June 6th 2010 (The luckiest wife ever known)

I guess what this post is about, is to express how fortunate and grateful I am to know I am married to the most amazing man in the world, and my best friend. Jason is for me, PERFECT. I don't feel for one bit that I am exaggerating when I say that either. I know most people will say that this happy lovey feeling in the beginning will eventually get less with time or even fade away, but I don't care and don't believe that for one second for me and Jason. I have a burning desire to be with him and it will never diminish or lessen. He gives me the strength to make it through everyday. He is my true love and my real life's Prince Charming. I will always love him and this is only the beginning of our long eternal journey together. I can't wait to be with him again. I cannot truly say I am happy right now, but I am to an extent. Being away from him as I have, has been the worst and hardest thing I've ever had to do. Every morning I wake up and have to realize the fact that when I open my eyes, he won't be there, it pains my heart to the very core. He has my whole heart, and that's who I want to have it. Jason, If you ever read this, I love you. I love you more than these words could ever describe, and if I had one last breath to breathe, I would use it to tell you I love you. You are my other half. Always and Forever baby! I promise you.

Some things I love about this man...

His love for me.
His love for the gospel.
His devotion to do what's right.
His laugh that always makes me smile inside.
The way he looks at me.. everytime.
When he says "I love you." he always makes sure it sounds like he means it and I know he does.
The way I feel his love.
His happines for being alive and breathing.
His positive attitude and outlook on every situation.
His strong spiritual and physical nature.
His love for children and the desire to be a wonderful father.
His acts of being an amazing husband and companion.
He is my best friend.
He makes me cry... in a good way.
He makes me laugh...everyday.
He rubs my feet when they hurt.
The way he always has to make sure I'm smiling even when I don't want to.
The way he treats those around him.
The way he looks when he wakes up.
The way he prays.
His hands.
His eyes.
His arms around me.
The way he holds me through the whole night.
When we wake up, he always says I love you and good morning beautiful.
The way he starts to cry when we get off the phone.
The way he writes me letters and lets me know how much he misses me.
The way I am still somehow happy even being away from him, just because I know how stong our love is.
The way he kisses me. ( perfect and breathtaking each one)
The way he picks me up and holds me.
The way he smells.
The way he sings.
His voice.
His touch.
His protective and manly traits. & finally...

The fact that I can't ever think of one; even one miniscule thing about him, that I don't love.

I know that's not even close to how many there really are, but it's a start. <3

Jason Called Today! AHH

2010-04-26T01:59:00.000-07:00

Sunday: April 25th 2010
     Well Jason is on his 5th week now of Basic Training in Ft. Benning, Georgia and he got to call me today. I won't lie, today was a nervous crazy anxious day! So we go to church at 8:30am and all Sacrament I kept thinking he was gonna call...nope. Okay- Sunday School, now it's about 9:30 ...nope not during Sunday School. ...hmm 10:30am-11:30am ...Relief Society, I was shaking a little at this point going crazy he just had to call now, this is what time he called around last time he got to call. Church ends...still no army ringtone has played.
     I had kinda given up the thought of him calling at around 3pm. Cuz now it's about 6pm Georgia time and I thought for sure no way would he get to call that late. Bummer! Then 5 minutes after 3...when I was "really truly" ready to stop staring at my cell phone anxiously, I heard a ring! not my phone..Ann's. Sooner than a minute later she comes walking to my room, pointing ecstatically at her phone lipping, "It's him It's him!!" Okay finally!!! Luckily he had an hour to talk otherwise I would have been very jealous he called his mom first... and almost his whole family (except karlie and tyler) were here, so they all got to talk to him and even put it on speaker phone for a while.
     Now at 3:20pm I was finally and most gratefully happy that now it was my turn to talk to Jason! The man of my dreams. Everytime I first hear his voice I get butterflies and all schoolgirl giddy inside. He drives my emotions crazy. ( In a good way of course ) The last 40 minutes of his phone call was spent with me. We talked and laughed and cried a little... it was perfect. I mean this isn't his first phone call, nor his last, but it was a real phone call this time. We got to converse! haha. It was so great to hear him and know he is doing well and all is good with his training. I am so thankful the Lord has watched out for my soldier and has been so generous with all we have been blessed with. I love Jason with all my heart and I will always say..I am proud of him. I am. I always will be. He is a one of a kind kind of special...and I will always be happy with him. I feel like Giselle...(in Enchanted) except I actually married the first guy, but anyways... I realized what real love was when it hit me and I didn't want to let it go. I am so happy he feels the same way and we can share this life and longer (when we get sealed) together.

                                                                                                      The End

2010-04-20T02:26:00.000-07:00

Well Friday I just turned 20 years old. Some of my really good girlfriends threw me a little surprise party. Not many of the usual girls were able to go, but the ones that could made it special for me. They came and got me from My in-laws' house and took me over to Cathy and Jerryd's place and had nachos and a cake for me. After dinner and cake we watched "The Blind Side." <-- Love that movie! Sandra Bullock rocks! anyways..it was nice of them. My big sister Tanya also got me a present! SHOES!! Does she know me or what?! haha I got gray converse and she also got me a $50 visa card. so...here's the pix enjoy!

Our Scrapbook!!

2010-04-14T00:40:00.000-07:00

I decided while Jason is gone for these 3 months that I would start a scrapbook for us... I haven't gotten that far, but it's something. Our baby pics are big, but I like it! And then we have a "past years" page and if you can see it good enough, we both had the same numbers in baseball!! 4 & 8 !! crazy huh?! I thought so, but I also thought, "well duh...we were meant for each other!" I will keep adding pictures, as I keep adding pages. Hope you guys like it! I'm getting excited for it to keep growing, before you know it we'll have our children's pages in it! ahh kids! Maybe we should just stick to waiting for his AIT to be done first...

We'll see!

Apart

2010-04-14T00:24:00.000-07:00

So Jason has been gone for about two weeks now and I have got to talk to him quite a few times. I am so grateful for the times he's been able to call me. I have already recieved 3 letters from him and hopefully he's gotten at least 1 or 2 of mine by now. He called just the other day and we got to talk for 15 minutes!! It was so great, but he said he didn't get a letter yet. I have sent probably around 5-6 letters, so I'm a little disappointed. I didn't want him to have to go this long and not have a letter. Unless the commander and sergeants don't give them their mail until 2 weeks through, because they want them to focus on the beginning days. I don't know, but getting the 3 letters I have has been such a blessing to me and they have all come at a time I desperately needed them! They all said things I needed and wanted to hear, and I know he is doing well and the Lord is taking care of him. He is my whole life and I am so proud of him for sticking to it and doing his best. I know it's going to get harder for him and I'm sure I'll become more aware of that further down these few months. Jason is my everything and I love him with all of my heart. I pray for him and wish him well... be safe darling. I love you.

The family day is June 9th at 9:00 am, and his graduation from Basic Training is June 10th at 9:00 am IN GEORGIA!! We will (his parents and I) be driving there and then I will stay after the graduation and his parents will fly home. Hopefully he will have the rest of the weekend off so we can try and find us an apartment in Ft. Gordon! Oh my Goodness! We will be living in Georgia in June! that is so close and I have a lot to do, better get started...!! :0)

Day 1:
Well the day (unfortunately) but finally came that Jason has sworn into the United States Army. He is now officially their soldier. March 28th, Sunday, we woke up at 6am and got ready to take Jason to the recruiter's office for the shuttle. The shuttle didn't arrive until 8 or 8:30, so we had a few moments with him to say goodbyes and eat breakfast, (he didn't eat because of his nerves) and then I rushed him over to catch his ride. Trevor (another soldier who is Jason's closest friend/brother) also went to the office to see Jason off. Jason's route on the shuttle was longer then ours, because they had to pick up more guys in Tucson and Sierra Vista. Jason's parent's and I left the house around 9 and headed for the valley so we could meet him there. We arrived about 11:30am, but had a few errands to run and knew Jason wouldn't arrive at his hotel until 3 or 4, so we went and delivered a mattress t some friends of the family and then went to Jason's sister and husband's house (Karlie and Tyler). We stayed there until about 2:30 and talked and helped them with some stuff for their house, so by that time we were ready to eat again. We ate at In and Out Burger. (delicious) then I recieved a call from Jason at like 3:30 that he had got to the hotel and we could come see him. So of course we went to see him right away and didn't even worry about checking into our hotel, so we could spend as much time with him as possible. We get there and he's outside waiting for us and then we go into the hotel (Sheriton) and just hang out for the rest of the day. At about 8pm Jason had to leave for maybe 10-15 minutes to go to a short briefing with the other soldiers. At this time, it was starting to get really hard on me, because I knew it was the last 2 hours of normal quality time I'd get to spend with him before he had to go, so I was starting to get depressed. After he came back down the elevator and into the lobby with us, Karl (his dad) and me felt like we needed some food, so we all decided to cross the highway and eat at the Fudruckers that was right across from the hotel. I got motzerella sticks. (yum- I know totally not healthy, but under the stress and depressing circumstances I came to the decision that I deserved a little "spoiling".) Ok so now this leaves the time at about 8:40pm and we wanted to hurry back over because his curfew was 10pm. So again we crossed the highway and back into the lobby we went. We all sat and talked and laughed for the next 20 minutes and then Jason told me his mom really wanted to go on a walk with him, ( I won't lie, a little part of me was very jealous and sad, because we didn't even have any alone time yet and I am his wife), but I love his mother to pieces and knew this was a bigger goodbye for her to him than it would be for me, so of course I let them go. They only took about 15 (maybe less) minutes and then he wanted to take me on a "walk." (more like a final explosion of tears) He took my hand and lead me outside to a beautiful little lit up pathway with trees and grass and a cute little sidewalk...and we started crying. He did first I might add. So (since it's personal and special between us-we will just fast forward a bit).... about 9:45 we decided to end this sweet little "goodbye, I will miss you" walk and let his parents enjoy him too. Well after we got back we decided to just let him walk us out to the parking lot and go our seperate ways. (even though we knew we would all see each other in the morning again, it was this night we were able to cry and be sad. So we hugged and took pictures until the last minute) He walked us out to the truck and we all hugged him one last time...I got a kiss. And then ... the hardest part; we had to watch each other fade away as we drove out and left him in the parking gargage to return to his room.
Day 2
March 29th, 2010-Monday: Woke up at 6am and got ready for the day. Today was swear in day, and "goodbye-for-a-long-time-day" :0( Jason's parents and I got ready,ate, showered, and headed to the swear in building to see Jason. We arrived at 7:45, but had to wait 15 mintues before we could go up, because no one could until 8. *Those were some long 15 minutes let me tell you....Anyhow, ...they passed and we were able to go up and then another waiting period of 15 minutes or more, because when we got up there, he was in the army office talking about papers and his rank and weigh in etc. stuff. Soon he walked out and I flashed the biggest smile I could possibly flash, but he kept going and held up his index finger signifying that he'd be done in just "one minute" lol. (sad again...more waiting) Well he was right, only about a minute or two passed and he came out and we got to spend lots of time with him. There's lots more, but this story needs to end sometime, so ffw >> some and at approximately 11 o'clock we all went in a room and watched Jason and 7 other great guys make an oath to the U.S. army that they would serve their country .... (more words)....so help them God. Oh and on the way home we stopped at DSW (SHOE LOVER'S PARADISE) and his mother and I picked out some shoes to help us feel better. Thanks Mom Ann, I love you so much!

The End.

P.S. I am so proud of Jason. It was the greatest feeling getting to be his wife and watch him make such a commitment and brave decision. I support him 100% and love him with all my heart.

Jason and I started hanging out about January 15th or so.. the first night we talked to each other was on facebook messenger and I was just about to start typing him a message, which included the word.."Hi." before I could type it, he started to talking to me and said hi. So we both tried talking to each other at the same time. Later during the conversation we decided to hang out with each other sometime, so we kinda said our goodbyes online and said we'd talk again soon. About a week later we got online and started talking again; well within maybe 5 minutes we really wanted to get together and do something fun. He came and picked me up at my dad's house and we went to see his friend, RJ. That night we ended up throwing darts, watching some chappell shows, and chatting for a while. I had a really fun time and wanted to spend some more time with him, even though at the time he had a girlfriend and I just got a divorce. So we ended up going to EAC the next night to play raquet ball. Jason was very sweet and charming, he opened the doors for me and taught me some cool tips and tricks for raquet ball. He is very good at it too. I was a little scared with how to act, I really liked him, but didn't want to be too much too fast and knew he just broke up with his gf and it was only our 2nd night hanging out. Well we ended up getting together again a few days later, January 22nd and we went up to the mountain. (Mt. Graham) It had snowed for the past few days and there was lots of snow to play in, so we got some snow toys and his friend RJ and headed up to the mountain. On the mountain it was pretty busy, so we found a cool "secluded" place (private property hehe) and hopped a fence and started making a trail for the tube and snow skate. RJ and Jason pulled me for a little bit, but it wasn't really working like we'd hoped, so we just built a little snowman and took pictures. We probably spent about 2 hours doodling around up there and then we headed back to the truck to get off the mountain. I ran ahead of the boys and chased Bandit around (Jason's dog) I guess during this time Jason was discussing with RJ how he felt about me and how much he liked me. I won't deny I had some really strong feelings for him as well, but I thought it was still too soon to reveal them to him. After the mountain we went to RJ's girlfriend's parent's house and had smores and played games. Everyone was having a lot of fun and then I started feeling sick. Jason didn't hesitate in taking care of me and making sure I was comfortable, so we ended up going into a guest bedroom and I layed on the bed while he sat beside me. Somehow during all the talking we discovered how we felt for each other. Earlier that night he had told me " I love you", but I didn't hear him say it. I also said it to him not knowing he had already said it. So we both couldn't help our feelings and had a great long conversation about our hopes and goals in life and what we wanted most. We soon realized that we had a lot in common. It was like we were finishing each other's sentences and reading minds. After a little while we started joking about how we should get married and be happy together and have a family. Well.... after we started joking about it we realized that we both weren't really "joking." We had fallen in love with each other and there was no way to deny it. Both of us were a little nervous about how our families would feel and about him leaving for the army in a few months, we didn't know what direction to take this relationship. We both really wanted to be together, but we didn't want any family issues or feelings hurt. Well we kept it quiet for as long as we could, and then spilled the news a few weeks later. We bought the ring on February 8th, he proposed February 12th, and we got married March 6th. Everything just sort of fell into place and worked out perfectly which was good because it helped us see that the decision we made was right and the Lord was saying yes to us being together. Now we are happily married and waiting to start the next step in our own Happily Ever After.

Favorites from A to Z!!

Our Puppy

2009-10-26T00:44:00.000-07:00

Honey is our Teacup Yorkie-Poo. She was born February 10 2007, 2 months and 6 days before my 17th birthday. My dad gave me 350 dollars to buy whatever I wanted for it and I already had what I wanted picked out... a puppy. He helped me look in the newspaper and online ads for a teacup/small dog. We came across an add that had a teacup yorkie-poo, and it had to be sold, because they needed money for hospital bills. We called and found out that they still had her, so we asked if 350 was enough and they said yes. We got directions to their house and went and picked her up. She was so cute and I knew from the moment I saw her, she had to be mine. I looked at her once and then gave the money to the lady. I just felt like I needed her. It all happened so perfect. I still have her and she is happy and spoiled! Jason loves her too.

Our Favorite Temples are...

2008-10-07T02:37:00.000-07:00

Tiffany: Logan Utah Temple

I guess explaining why this temple is my favorite would be nice. I don't know if I have a specific reason for why this particular one stands out to me, but I remember when I first saw it in person. I went to Utah with my Grandma, Aunt Marlea, and some cousins; we went to see some family that lived in Logan. (Thank goodness) I just remember seeing it in pictures and knew I loved it and I just really wanted to get married there. I asked my cousin Amber, that lived there at the time, to drive me to the temple so I could take some pictures. She happily agreed and we set out to see the best temple on Earth. (In my opinion, even though all of them are of course wonderful and have such sacred and special meaning)
We drove up to the temple and I just remember being silent and just admiring it's power to draw the eye. It was beautiful, more than any picture could express. It just seemed so perfect. I loved the "castle" type feel it had to it and the many bricks that were placed and the beautiful white steeple things on each side. I loved the landscape as well and the cool gate surrounding the temple.

Jason: Mesa Arizona Temple

He likes the mesa temple because it was the one he has been able to go to the most and grew up being the closest to. Another reason is because his family has had lots of sealings in the Mesa temple.

The Gila Valley Temple

One of our newest favorite temples!!

And it's in our hometown!!
