This past weekend Jordan and I went up to Idaho with my family to see a close family friend of my family get married to his beautiful wife. It was very interesting and different. Which there is nothing wrong with that at all. They got married in a four square Christian Church in I.F. It was very beautiful. Jordan and I were whispering to each other because of what we were feeling. We felt the definite urge and motivation to keep ourselves focused toward getting married in the temple(not that we weren't thinking of going to the temple), it was just a more motivation to fight to go towards that.
Jordan and I are deciding to take it slow so for those of you that marked your calenders for August 4th you can take that off now. :) Jordan and I are being smart in getting to know each other and not going to rush into things. Seeing as marriage is a huge decision, it's not something to fool around with.
Anyways, back to this past weekend. Friday, I took him on a walk around my neighborhood. And really enjoyed it and it was a good work out too! We walked a good 2 miles, I probably would have gone longer too! haha! I love to walk! :) We were able to visit a family of a friend that I went to school with growing up! It was crazy! But very much enjoyable!
Saturday, we traveled up to Idaho and stayed at my Aunt Karen's and Uncle Kent's house. I got to meet my cousin Olivia and her younger brother Graeme(Graham) for the first time! And got to know the cute little kids! Olivia is such a teeny bopper it's crazy! She's 2 and a half and still wears 18 month clothing! And so much fun! I went straight to Graeme and played with him and had so much fun! We went to Brandon's Wedding which was beautiful. :) I loved the colors! I'm going to use Dark Sage Green, Egg Plant Purple(or Plum), and Brown. Just sayin'! haha! Saturday night, Jordan and I played Battle Ship, and played best 2 out of 3. He beat me 1st, then I beat him the next 2 times! The last time, he almost beat me, but I figured out his method. and once he hit all my ships(one hit each mind you). I found his ships and sunk them before he had the chance to sink my ships he hit! It was so hilarious! Then, My cousin Kylie and her husband Gearen surprised them earlier this weekend and got to visit with them, Aunt Karen and Uncle Kent, as well as my parents. The conversations we had were so funny! I don't think I have laughed so hard in my life! It's awesome and I love my Family! And getting to know my cousin's husband was so much fun! I know things are going to get really fun from both sides of our family! My cousin said that I looked "Handsomly Orangey!" I guess that's a very good impression! haha! And her way of the term "Peachy."
I look forward to so many adventures that most of those I don't know of yet! But, I look forward to it definitely!
Yesterday, when we got home, we played a game with Amanda and Jameson, and had even more laughs. We were enjoying each other's company, and simply having fun! I Love it!
I have never felt like this though! I feel at peace, and I feel extremely loved! Do you have any idea how much more special you feel when you are called Beautiful no matter how inadequate you feel every single day? I don't think I'll ever get tired of it! In fact I'm honestly still getting used to it! After years of having a low self esteem, and a few years to actually believe for myself that I am Beautiful! Some days of course are harder than others, but on some of the hard days, I try to look in the mirror to tell myself that "I'm Beautiful" at least 10 times. And eventually, I feel beautiful, although sometimes I feel it doesn't work...
But, I know I'm beautiful! He does so much, and I do the same, although sometimes. I'm just simply talking and somehow I say the right thing? He does the same thing and I Love him for that. But there are loads of many different reasons why I Love my Jordan. He makes it very easy to laugh like crazy and makes life fun! His smile if full of teasing, fun and humor. Also very sweet, kind, and selfless. He loves to help others, and is very steadfast in Christ. He loves his family very much and is very close to them. And most of all I Love him for who he is! Don't you love the feeling that no matter the flaws a person has, you'll always love them no matter what? Yeppers! that's how I feel about him! I'll always fight for that love even though, I know I don't have to do much. I know I'll always have to prove myself to show my love towards him all the time!
I Love you Jordan "Shorty" James Byrd!!! <3
