Happy Valentines Bunky!

I have always loved Valentines Day and this is my first Valentines being married! EEEE!!!! I thought as a special valentines post I would go ahead and write our love story. . . Since it is the reason we are together. I sure do love you Brian. . . Happy Valentines Day Sweetheart!

Once upon a time. . . In a far away land called Cottonwood Heights, our story begins! That day I was not a happy camper. I got up early, went and worked out with my trainer, and then went to a pageant review. It ended up being way longer then I anticipated and by this time I was tired, cranky, sweaty and feeling like my saturday was blown. I decided that I was going to go home, pop in an audrey hepburn, eat sorbet, and lounge in the ugliest sweats I could find!

Just as my evening was starting I got a text from my good friend saying there was a pool party in cottonwood heights that night. She really wanted me to come with her and after tons of talking me into it, I finally agreed to go.

I had just gotten out of a relationship and so I told myself that my only purpose tonight was to flirt and have fun. There were a lot of really cool people there, and being the social butterfly that I am, I introduced myself to almost everyone there.

Later I met some fun guys playing volleyball. They were all there together so it cracked me up when three of them asked for my number. I laughed and wondered how that was all going to work out. I guess one of the guys in the group was Brian. One of the ones who DIDN'T ask for my number. Throughout the night, Brian kept a close watch on me, and made small conversation here and there in the hot tub, but nothing that I really remember. . .

At the end of the night I went home, like usual, and went to bed. Unaware that my life was about to change. . . (Sidenote. I swear this is how it HAPPENS!!!! Your life changes the most when you least expect it to!)

A couple weeks later, my same friend and I decided to go country dancing! As I was walking on the dance floor, Brian was walking off at the same time. I hit him, you know, in a playful way, and asked him if he remembered me. His response still makes me smile to this day. He had a huge grin on his face, pulled me close, and said of course I remember you Lindsay. . .

This made it a little awkward for the guy whose hand I was holding walking onto the dance floor with. . . Ooops! And Brian told me he would find me in a little bit to catch up.

That night we must have danced together at least fifteen times. All of which were incredibly awesome! He smelled so dang good, and was so good at swing dancing. Lets just say I was impressed. And he hugged me after every dance. In a cute, not creepy way.

At the end of the night he asked for my number to "hang out" sometime. I tried to tell it to him like 5 times but the music in the club was way to loud for him to hear me. Finally I handed him my phone and asked him to put in into mine because I couldn't hear him.

The next time my friends and I went out dancing, we wanted some people to hang out with. So I texted Brian and all his friends :) and asked them to come with my friends and I. Needless to say they were all a little confused to see each other there but It is one of my most favorite memories ever.

Another week later, I got a call from Brian. He said he wanted to take me out. I was a little shocked though because I hadn't really thought of dating him. It was obvious he was an incredible person, I just didn't think I would date him. He seemed more like the friend type. But I liked him so I said yes, and we decided that the soonest we could get together would be after my best friend Melanies wedding!

That night, I met him, in a formal dress, flip flops, an updo and a baggy sweatshirt. I know, all of you reading this are saying Linds this is so typical of you, but hey, its all I had!!! Not caring what anyone thinks! I also didn't really have any pressure because I knew brian to be fun and laid back.
Yeah, I know. . . This is the actual outfit I wore to our casual date. . . .

We got ice cream and drove up the canyon talking. Five hours later our date ended. I was definately not expecting what happened after that. Brian literally swept me off my feet. What did it for me, is his amazing personality, awesome sense of humor, big blue eyes and a huge smile that never stops.
From the beginning he was so interested in everything about me. He wanted to know every detail of my life and what made me me! And to this day continues to look at me amazed. For some reason I am the most incredible thing in his life and every day he lets me know it. We dated for six weeks and got engaged at bear lake. Eight months later, kneeling across from each other in the Salt Lake Temple, sealed our love story for time and all eternity.


He is the best thing to ever happen to me, and is my best friend. I never knew life could be this good and my favorite thing to do is reminisce on the times we were beginning our adventure.


One thing I love about seeing two people in love is hearing their story and how they came to be together. I hope you have enjoyed ours. . . .

Love to you all! and Happy Valentines!
