Story Time!

So Dave and I have been dating a little over a month but I am ready to share some of my favorite stories/facts about our relationship! 

Back Ground: So Dave is a good friend of my cousin Timmy! So I actually remember him meeting him a few times! First at Lava, he was a life Guard there for like 11 years during the time that we went a lot! He "claims" he remembers me also cause we remembers the people that we used to go with! I kind of believe him about it because he gets so excited when I challenge him! The second place I remember him is at my cousin's wedding! He sat a crossed from me in the sealing room and I remember asking one of my other cousin's who he was! 

First Time actutally talking: Dave and I are in the same singles ward! We both remember really talking at a ward prayer sometime in January! I was dying because I stood in a circle talking to a huge group of boys who I didn't really know and I was so proud of myself! My faviorite part of this story is Dave felt that "I am going to ask this girl out. She is amazing" (a quote from his mouth!)  He was a tad shy and didn't ask me out until the middle of April! 

Many of the nosey people around us decided we should get together! The funny thing is that I knew about it but he had no clue! They would try to put us next to each other and make sure that we are at the same things! Example: Ryan's birthday Britt our friend looked at me and said Dave is here! I said yeah I invited him! Then Britt looked at Kenna and said can that stuff be moved! (I was sitting on my hope chest) Move the stuff move the stuff! That way Dave could sit by me!

Asking out: So at FHE after the passover dinner Dave was helping me clean up and Colton: Why don't you help Melissa take that stuff out to the car! Me: No I have got it! Colton: No Dave help her carry that stuff! Me: Apparently I need help with this!  Dave asked me out for that Saturday! Well then I got sick like super both ends sick! I couldn't go! I was so sad! I called him and told him that I really wanted him to like me but you won't like me if I go on this date!

The Actual Date: After I reminded Dave that we need to go on the date! We went on a date the next Saturday! We went to Ruby Tuesdays for dinner and then to Outer Limits to the arcade! It was super fun! Some highlights- Dave was so nervous he drove passed the turn off and then drove passed the turn off to my house! He was super adorable! He also lost quite a few games! He did win at air hockey but only because I scored like 6 goals for him!

I wish every lady had a Dave. He is amazing. One of my favorite parts about him is when I tell people that I am dating him they say  I love Dave and then they say he is the nicest guy ever! It really is truth! I have never been treated so well! He is super funny, maybe even be a little bit goofy! I am super greatful for the experiences that I have been on  in order to be open to Dave! I am truly happy, and it is not just because of Dave although I do really really like him (actually love him), I just know I am were I should be, doing what I should do!
