How it all started....














Here is the story of how we became what we are! In June of 2006 my brother, Roury, went on a mission. While he was in the MTC he met "Elder Garrison". So I guess Johnny asked to see my brothers photo album and he saw a picture of me, and so my bro asked him if he wanted to write me. So I get this letter from my brother saying that one of the elders is gonna send me a letter soon. My bro said he was cool, and I knew he had good judgement, so I was excited.
A week or so later I received a letter from him. I was way excited and felt cool because I wasn't even a senior in high school yet haha. Honestly, I am not a very good pen pal. But I really enjoyed writing Johnny. Sometimes I would get like 12 page letters! And I loved getting new pictures!
When I was a senior in High school, there came a time when I needed to decide if I was going to become serious with my boyfriend and stop writing Johnny, or just the opposite. In my mind I knew I didn't want to stop writing Johnny, so I made the decision and kept writing Johnny.
There also came a time that after graduation, I was going to move out with my friends and live in orem. I paid the deposit and everything...but I just didn't feel good about. Even though I had never met Johnny, I had a feeling that something would happen between us and I decided to stay home and save money.
The day he got home from his mish, I waited around anxiously to get that phonecall. Finally at around 10 or so in the evening i got the call :) Ah i had butterflys so so bad! Then in July he came here for a week and then i went to california for a week. By the end of the trip I knew i only wanted to be with him. We got together on August 1, 2008. For awhile we would fly back and forth to visit eachother and talk on the web cam. And finally he moved in with me and the fam. And now we are getting married August 1, 2009.
