We went to see the movie monster house and I think that at some point during the movie we held hands for the first time... must have been really natural because I have NO recollection of it. After the movie we went on a walk on the Redmond River Trail and ended up laying in the grass on a blanket by the senior center or something. We talked for hours and hours, I think we mostly talked about how we grew up and our families. I had made a goal after that year of college that I really didn't want to kiss more then 10 people ever so I had this plan that I was going to wait til something was serious for that. I remember jt's face getting SO close to mine SO many times and I finally said uhh you are getting SUPER close to me ha ha I feel like you are going to kiss me or something ha ha... he laughed it off and was like come on this is only our like second real date! ( He later confessed that he had almost kissed me like 5 times and that my comment scared him off) I had butterflies the entire night. I think I got home around 2... or 3am or something really late Or early depending on your view. We planned to hang out the following night.
Day 13: July 22, 2006
We went to a friends house and walked in holding hands and cuddled on the couch during a movie. I think all of our friends were in shock because 1 week before - the last time I had seen any of them I am pretty sure I didn't know Jt's last name he he. things were moving FAST.
Day 14: July 23, 2006
Sunday morning- I woke up slightly terrified. It was all moving REALLY fast, I had another boy that I had considered dating. I was just going to be there for the summer. I didn't know if I really wanted a boyfriend this summer. He was a returned missionary... the first one I ever really dated that actually really liked me. This could all actually lead to GULP the M word. Marriage. Yes these were my thoughts after 3 real dates and knowing him 14 days. I felt like I knew him better then almost every other boy in my life. In 3 days. Unreal. I went to church and sat next to him but ignored any attempts he made to hold my hand. I am positive he was confused at my mixed signals. As we sat there I just sort of realized that I liked this boy and needed to give this a shot. We might have even discussed why I didn't want to hold hands later in the day but it's all a little fuzzy. I am guessing Jt said something like uh calm down we are just going on dates here I'm not proposing tomorrow.
I went over to his house for family Dinner and everyone was so nice and I really didn't feel nervous at all. We ended up watching Mulan later since he had never seen it and as we talked long after the credits had ended I kissed him. Yup. I kissed him first. The only first move I have ever made. No regrets there. I remember texting Taylor I think on the way home and saying Taylor... I am at 9!!!! And I am happy to say I achieved my kissing Goal and stopped right there at 9 :)
Day 15: July 24, 2006
After Family Home Evening JT came over and played cards at my house and met my parents and brother- I assume they liked him though the only thing we both remember is that after hearing he was from Vegas and with us playing cards they called him a card shark.
