Ten Days

I can't even believe that I am typing this. Our time is almost up.

Ten days left. Where has the time gone?

These last two months, since we finished school, have been crazy. We have been able to spend so much time together. I am so grateful for that. I have learned to cherish every little thing. I have held him closer, tighter. I have kissed him longer, harder. I have loved him and let him love me. As I hold his hand, I memorize all of the lines, moles, and veins - simply so that when he is away I can maybe remember the feeling better. I don't want to lose sight of this special thing we have. He is my one true love.

Here are some pictures from the last little while:

 

We attended Military Ball with a bunch of friends on May 11, 2013. It was such a fun night!

  

 

 

Mike was endowed June 8, 2013

We have spent time with his family and mine. We have spent time with our friends. Most importantly, we have made time to spend with just each other. That is so important.

This past week has been a blast. We got to go on vacation with Mike's family and then had a small over nighter with my family. So June 15-19, we went to Jackson Hole with his fam. It was a blast! We went to the Tetons, Yellowstone, rafting down Snake River, dinner at Bar J Chuckwagon, dinner in a tepee, mini golfing, and we played lots of games. It was so fun to spend time with him and his family. I feel even closer to all of them now. Erika and I shared a room. It was so nice to spend time with her. On the last night of our trip, mike was over in our room hanging out. I started to get sad when he was going to go back to his room. I started to realize that he only has fourteen days left. I walked mike out and just started crying. We sat out there for an hour. I didn't want to go back in because I didn't want to make Erika sad. Mike ended up going in there to let her know what was going on. I guess he started crying once he got in and Erika had already been crying. It turns out that she thought that we were breaking up out there. They came and got me outside and we all sat on the bed hugging and crying. It was so sad. I think it just hit all of us how soon it was. I love them both so much. Mike tucked us both in bed and went back to his room. Erika and I ended up staying up until four talking. We told each other secrets and just talked about everything. I told her that I will stay close to them even while mike is gone. It ended up being a great trip. I love mike and his family and I am so grateful they took me with them. They are the best.

Then on Friday, the 21st, we went to the Manti Pageant with my family. We had quite the crazy time. All of the kids were acting like psychos the whole trip. It was still a great time. The dinner was really good. Mike and I even talked to some protesters. It was really interesting and it was hard for us to answer their questions. It was interesting though and especially a good experience for mike. Mike liked the show. We stayed over night in this yurt. That was interesting but fun! There were lots of bugs and ash even found a worm on her bed. Patrick and my mom ended up sleeping in the car. Lol. What a night it was. We got food on the way home the next day and even stopped at The Red Barn for some ice cream. It was a fun little trip!

The last two months have been the best and I hope these next ten days will be ones to remember. Next time I blog, mike will probably be gone. Wish me luck!
