After our second date (January 1st) we texted a ton especially during Jazz games, but we didn't see each other for a while because I got sick. We decided to go on another date to the Ice Castles in Midway on January 13th. Right before he arrived I got a call from my ex saying his Girl friend was having a miscarriage and was trying to figure out arrangements for our girls, well we got in a big argument and so the last thirty min before Dustin arrived I was crying and telling my family what happened, when I say my family I mean my parents and 3 of my 4 sisters were there. I was able to compose myself and Dustin came to the door and he was holding a BIG bouquet of my favorite flowers (found out later he figured out what they were from meredeth). Seeing him standing there with that bouquet about had me crying again!!
He said hi to my family (first time meeting everyone) then we headed out to dinner. I let him know what was going on with my ex and how I was having a bad time before he showed up. After dinner we went to the ice castles and it was an amazing date!! we had so much fun together and had plenty of time to talk and get to know each other more.
It was the date that changed everything!
Unbeknownst to me after this date Dustin knew he wanted to pursue me, so he arranged many things ahead of time. For example he made dinner reservations for valentines day, bought a gift for that day and ordered a bouquet for my birthday.
After this date I decided to let him meet the girls, So we took them on a date and they loved the idea! We took them to the planetarium in SLC and then out to Red Robin, Eden was in food Heaven! On the way home I asked if I could meet his family, (thought it was no biggie seeing as I met them a long time ago.) That night he took me to their house and I met them all again and got to play some games with them. I fell in love with his family right away. He came over for Lydias birthday and we talked about where this was going, a week later on my birthday we decided to be a couple. Something that meant a lot to me is that he was fine not kissing until I was ready. Dustin agreed to going to Logan with me early in February so I could show him where I lived and my favorite places.
He paid for some hotel rooms and we went up. We went swimming, and to my old job, and on a walk through the cemetery (my fav place to walk) and we went sledding down old main. It was on this trip that I decided to finally kiss him and I caught him off gaurd when I did :)
