After many months of exchanging letters, photos, and the occasional video Jeni was FINALLY able to see the man behind the name tag in person!!!!! :D Here is the story we've all been waiting for! Congrats to Jeni and Kevin!
Ok so some background info about my amazing missionary. Kevin and I never dated before his mission, right before he left he asked me to write him and I was like yeah sure what ever no big deal I'll write him when I get a chance. That was July of 2010 and January of this year I suddenly had the feeling that I really needed to write him and I had no idea why. I brushed it off for a few weeks. Finally I listened to the prompting and wrote him. I had no idea what to say but I just wrote a totally random letter. I'd heard from his friends that I probably wouldn't hear back for a month or two. Well about 2 weeks later I heard back from him :) Ever since then we wrote back and forth :) While he was serving I lost my dad and he seriously worte me the best letter I could have wished for. I was bawling before I could even get through the first paragraph. Any ways so we eventually started emailing and writing and I started sending mini movies. We had so much fun writing and emailing and just getting to know each other :)
He came home on Tuesday and in my last email from him he said he'd call Tuesday night to let me know he was home. We didn't plan on seeing each other the first night so he could have some time with his family. I never got my phone call on Tuesday night but he did email me and told me that he would call me on Wednesday and that he wanted to see me that night as well. Around 9:30 last night I kinda gave up on him calling me and 15 mins later he did!!!!! We talked for about 20 mins and i couldn't stop smiling. It was amazing!! We flirted a bit and just had an awesome conversation. :)
Thursday - Ahhhh it was awkward but so great! I got like 5 hugs and we talked for about 2 hours!! He even passed my puppy who growls and barks at every guy that walks in our house! He said he felt really awkward cause it was his first time alone with a girl in 2 years. We talked about so much and AH it was great! My mom even made the comment I hope you'll come back again and his response was definetely! AHHH I can't wait!!! I'm floating on cloud 9 tonight :)
