How Could I Possibly be Dating When I'm "Such a Dedicated MG"??

Recently I've got some questions through emails, messages on YouTube, comments, facebook that sound like this:

How could you possibly be dating when you are/were such a dedicated missionary girlfriend?
How did you and Jared meet?
How did you know you were supposed to be dating?

Instead of writing about it, I just made another video. Sorry for all the videos, I'm just a video person. So if anyone has any other questions, feel free to comment/message/email me.

15 Months & Lots of Change

Preston has been gone for 15 months as of today. I remember when I had 15 months left. It keeps making me realize how fast time really does go by.

Anyway, as you girls know, things have changed. I just kind of made this video to explain the fact that I don't have "two boyfriends" like some of you have said.

Enjoy :)

MG Countdown

01- I- couldn't be more happy the first month is finally over. Can I just be put in a time machine? This first month seriously felt like year. I cried, a lot. But my testimony has also grown so much. Ultimately, this month DRAGGED on forever!

02- A- mazing! This month was amazing because I got to talk to him on the phone from the airport, but also got to skype with him for Mothers Day! Time is starting to speed up. I feel like this month flew by but went super slow at the same time...

03- M- y goodness, time is going by SO SLOWLY! I haven't received any letters this month :( But on the bright side, I'm now living in Italy for the summer! He also had his first baptism this month :)

04- A- m I seriously finished with this month already? Time is finally starting to fly!! This month has been amazing :) I'm still living in Italy, Jared is still in his first area, with his second companion. His emails are only getting better and better :) I love that boy so much!

05- M- y goodness. What an insanely crazy and amazing month. Jared got transferred to his second area, still in Rome, and was made District Leader :) This month FLEW! I finished up my summer in Italy and actually ran into Jared in Rome! Like I said, it's been an insanely crazy month :) But time is finally starting to speed up! :)

06- I- think this month went a little bit slower. But I'm so freaking happy we're halfway to halfway!!

07- S-o uh, WHAT? This has by far been the fastest month. I didn't even realize I hit 7 months until the day of! Usually I'm counting down days. He's doing so great and we're more in love than ever :)

08- S- oooo um, what? I didn't even see this month coming! No letters this month. But it was seriously a quick one! Snow is starting to fall and it's becoming that time of year that just flies! Yay for the Holidays! :)

09- I- can't believe it! This one just hit in the face with how fast it came :)

10- O - my goodness, so much fun happened this month! I got my Christmas letter, we got to skype on Christmas (which was amazing) and I moved back to Hawaii! It's super hard being back where we first met.. But time is FLYING! Oh, and 300 days down!
