6 Months

6 months ago was when Forrest and I became "official"

I never could have imagined how much dating him would change my life in those 6 months (for the better)

Not only have I found the most amazing man in the world, but I found the best friend I could ever ask for.

No one makes me laugh harder, smile more, or happier than him. Sometimes he drives me crazy, but I know sometimes I drive him crazy as well, so it all evens out :) Life wouldn't be fun, anyways, if things were always perfect. Because they don't have to be

As one of my favorite songs by Sara Evans goes:

Maybe every little piece of the puzzle doesn't always fit

Perfectly

Love can be rough around the edges, tattered at the seams

But honey if it's good enough for you, then it's good enough for me

Just merely being around Forrest makes me want to be a better person

Pretty much any semi-cute lovey dovey song on the radio, I instantly think "aw. Forrest"

Never in my dreams would I have thought that the boy who looked at me funny and walked away when I proclaimed "Do you want to be my best friend?!" the first time I met him, would become one of the most important people in my life.

I have no idea what the future holds...My friend Megan once told me a quote that said "the essence of romance is uncertainty."...but I really hope he's in it. I really can't imagine my life without him!

I know this is all really cheesy, but I figured...hey, 6 months is a good landmark. I have a right to write something cheesy every now and then on here :) I could go on with a million reasons why he's so wonderful...but I can save that for another day ;-)

Forrest doesn't usually (er..ever) read my blog, but if he follows my directions and does...

Forrest Joshua Clark! You are so wonderful!!! You make me happier than you know. I hope you never forget how much I care about you :)

And just for fun....I decided to put up six pictures from the beginning of our relationship until now!

Before going to the Temple one morning...I think we'd been dating about 3 days?

After visiting Cindy and AJ in Salt Lake, and then walking around the SLC Temple and the Capital. I'm pretty sure this is where we first held hands (yeah, we're cool like that)

My first Real Salt Lake/MLS game. Lot's of fun...Even though Forrest had to explain lots to me :)

End of year party at Brick Oven.

On top of a mountain at Snowbird, Utah, when we spent a weekend there with some of his family

Pioneer Day celebration in Spanish Fork. Love this picture :)
