Hang out with the Boy

Sunday March 24th

I spent friday night with my dear miss cousin Nicole Newbold on friday. We talked all night, and hung out with Sof. Bryan finally got a phone, and texted me all night! I was pretty dang happy - especially when  he said "Goodnight my favorite girl." Silly as that may sound, I felt so happy! I jumped up and down and told both Erika and Nicole. They thought I was a bit spastic, but who cares! I had been dreaming of receiving that text for two years. 

Saturday Newbold and I woke up to go to the Oquirrh Mountain temple for baptisms. When we walked outside - it was snowing like crazy! I was sad because that meant our ultimate frisbee game with Kyle and friends was going to be cancelled.... Well. Newbold and I went to the temple anyways, and it was really good! We had a nice time, and it was relaxing and what I needed after a very long anticipated week. 

To my surprise, I had a text from Bryan asking if I wanted to do something with him that day. Umm hello?! Of course. That was much better than playing ultimate! So, I went over and got to spend most of the day with him. It was perfect. We didn't do anything incredibly special, we just hung out together! We ate chips and salsa with his dad, made cookie dough, talked to Grandpa Frandsen on the phone, picked up a corsage for Jakes prom date, took Sammy to a friends house, ate cookie dough, learned some Russian, talked some more, cuddled just a little bit, and I may have accidentally inferred that he is my Happily Ever After  :) Everything between us just seemed natural, and we talked to each other the same as we always had. We were still completely open, honest, silly and cheesy. 

I left around 7, and he went to his Stake Conference. I got to spend saturday night with Heather and we definitely had a good time! I love my quality Heather time. 

Sunday was wonderful! I had spent the night at Heathers and we went to Nick Smith's homecoming. I honestly didn't know the kid well, but I had to support my BFF! 

My favorite part of the day, was going over to Bryans! We spent a good 3 hours looking at all of his mission pictures!!! They were pretty cool, I can't believe he lived there. I had a good time listening to him to random stories. I want to look at more with him sometime because I'm sure I could get even more stories out of him just by looking at them.

After we finished, we went upstairs for ice cream, scriptures and prayer. Surprisingly his parents let us go down stairs and just hang out together. For some reason they are surprising me so much. I thought they would be a lot more protective, but so far they have been incredible! They really are such good parents. Anyways, Bryan and I just had fun talking and telling stories. He somehow always manages to get the most embarrassing things out of me. But hey, we wouldn't be Bryan and Chelsea if it weren't for all the complete ridiculous honesty and silliness. And guess what? We definitely did some cuddling that night. Hello was this girl in HEAVEN! I most certainly didn't want to leave after that, but I have to say - It was a good close to a perfect weekend.

My Best Friend.

Today is April 14th, and I realized something - I haven't written in my journal once, and my best friend got home from his mission 3 weeks ago. I was talking to Heathers dad today, and he asked me how things were going with Bryan. I told him silly things and how happy I am. He said "exciting times these  are, make sure you write them down!" Well, I'm going to see if maybe I can at least write in here at least once a week since I won't be writing letters anymore! Thats 3 hours each sunday that I have of extra time! 

March 20th, 2013

OKAY, here we go. Bryan got home on tuesday March 19th. Heather slept over to keep me company and keep me calm. I have the best friend in the whole entire world - she showed up with an adorable package title "missionary survival kit". How cute is she? It was filled with lotion, a shirt, lip gloss, stickers of the temple, and ice cream. What a sweetheart. I almost cried! We had a way good night though. We went to cafe rio for me, and got heather a shamrock shake from Mcd's haha. She loves those. And then she had the genius idea to drive to the airport. WE ARE FREAKS. We totally did it. We didn't actually see Bryan, but we saw a crowd of people! It was kind of really fun. Then we might have driven up to his house... we just wanted to see how the house looked and if it was decorated BUT... we happened to turn the corner to his house as he was pulling his suitcase into the house. I SCREAMED - "Oh my HELL, drive drive DRIVE! I see him!" Funniest experience of my life. Now we can officially add stalkers to our set of skills.

Surprisingly, I slept really well that night. Wednesday the 20th came! This girl went to one class, then to work, then back home to get ready and relax, and then off to Bryan's house. I was doing fine all day until the hour before.... and then I was going nuts. Pretty hilarious. But, Dan and C'Jay told me I looked super beautiful and smelled amazing. So that helped :)

Okay, here goes nothing.

I drove over, and got there are 5:30pm. And no one was there! So I texted his mom and I sat in the car. To be honest, I was happy because I felt like seeing him outside would be so much less scary than walking into his house and awkwardly hugging. Funny story. Our hug was still incredibly awkward hahaha. Oh how I love that boy! They pulled in, and got out. Erika jumped out with a camera (way more awkward than I imagined it woud be), and then we had an awkward "hello" and an even more awkward hug. We. are. cool.

We sat in the front room and talked for 20 minutes. It was so awkward. I asked him to tell me about his mission. What was I thinking? "How was your mission?". Did I not write him the whole two years? Oh my hannah. So, I did get him to speak Russian! And he looked really good.

Dinner was good! We had Cafe Rio, and it was fun to sit and joke around with his family. So, I'm expecting that I won't be there very long because he's tired, and that we're just gonna sit and talk about his mission with his family - then is mom says she's going to book club, and his dad had bishop meetings or something. I like could NOT believe it. They were going to leave, and I was gonna be alone with him. I was terrified out of my mind, slash super happy.

We went back to talking in the front room, and you'll never believe it - everything went back to normal!  I can' explain it. Yeah we are two years older, more mature and more spiritual - but I was with my best friend. And seriously, I have never been so happy. We talked about so many things! And everything was current/ We weren't like talking about how we used to like each other. We DO like each other, and he missed me and was happy to see me. AH. I couldn't have asked for anything more. I seriously love this boy, and I can't wait to fall even more in love. I left around midnight, called Bev, and just started crying. I realized that I wasn't imagining how happy I was before he left, and that it was worth it. I was in a dream... and I still am!
