His Mission Call Year Mark

Hello World!!
I know I have been completely MIA ever since August 25th. But here's the thing. I am 100% a picture blogger. If I can't add pictures into my post, it just makes me not want to post. Which is why you haven't heard anything from me. I'm still in China. And yes, I can blog, but the proxy that I use to get to blogger won't upload pictures. 
But that is not the point to this post. This post is dedicated to the amazing missionary that is my boyfriend :) He has been gone 9 months, 1 week and 1 day. I was supposed to write about this on November 11th but I was on vacation. Want to know why November 11th is so special to me? It's the day my sweetheart got his mission call :) Which means... It has been over a year since he got his call. Now see, I don't know if I believe this. There's no way it's been a year since I saw him opening that envelope. There's no way it's been a year since I saw the look on his face when he saw the words, "Hungary, Budapest" and in honor of that, here is the link to the video of him opening it :)

Now I really feel like we're getting close to the year mark :) and I know that once a lot of girls hit 7, 8, or  9 months, things usually start getting harder. Right? Well... Not for us :) I'm not even lying when I say we're only loving each other more and more with every day that passes. Which means, I know it's possible to not fall away from your boys. If any newer MG's are reading this, I want you to know that waiting really is possible, and easy sometimes :) Especially when you're as in love as I am :) 
Now that I've done this post about milestones. I'd like to throw in my countdown of the near future :) 
  • In 31 days - I leave China, and come home for the holidays :) 
  • In 37 days - It's Christmas!!! You know what that means... Skyping with him!! :)
  • In 46 days - I hop on a plane and head to Hawaii to start school at BYUH
  • In 83 days - It's his YEAR MARK!!!
I love life :) and my Elder Wright <3

  3. I stumbled across some of your youtube videos and decided to check your blog out! My missionary comes home in FIVE weeks! Going a little crazy, but i definitely agree with you. Waiting for a missionary is possibly the most rewarding thing you can do. It IS possible to wait for a missionary. Instead of growing apart over the past two years we just grew closer and our relationship grew heaps and mounds! Your blog is adorable! Wish i would've thought to do this. Good luck over this next year! He'll be home before you know it!
