We already know who is going to win. It's just our decision if we are going to show up and contribute. We all have agency and a freedom to act. Jesus Christ died for us so that we can live with him again but we have to contribute in order to receive that glorified state of happiness. We already know we will prevail but it's not just going to be handed to us. It's an on going fight.

Church has been amazing today.

How is he mine? 

Just look at that sweet angelic face. 

Cru is so selfless and just so PERFECT.

Everyone who knows him just goes on and on at how wonderful they think he is. 

Just always so positive and ALWAYS has a smile on his face. The poor guy like broke his ankle the other night playing basketball and just is still walking on it and working ALL DAY with a smile on his face. Such a hard worker. He never makes any excuses. He never complains. He is always just happy. Of course no one is perfect and hard things happen... But I think if my ankle was broken, I wouldn't be walking around all day on it... I would be home crying and complaining. Cru just handles everything in the best way. How could I ever be in a bad mood when I'm surrounded by someone who CONSTANTLY lifts me up? Cru never puts me or anyone down. He just gives and gives and feels good doing it. 

Cru the giver Leavitt:) 

He makes me a better person. In a lot of ways, I am weak where he is strong and we just fit perfectly. We balance each other out. I am so grateful for a relationship that is true. It's so sweet. We are friends! We laugh and play constantly. we make each other feel safe. There is so games. There is no threats. There is no pointing fingers and manipulation. There is just Cru and I. Two people who work perfectly together. Who make each other feel confident and loved. Who are open about everything. Who tell each other our mistakes and when we need help. 

There have been so many days where being away from each other has been really hard for me. 

I NEVER picture my fiancé and I being apart our entire engagement. 

To be honest I always have pictures us being with each other every day. Just being busy planning stuff. 

Sometimes I feel lonely because I'm busy all day and so is Cru and we barely talk, and I literally just cry. 

But then the second I let Cru know how I am feeling, he drops everything. One day during a work day Cru sat in a car on the phone with me for hours just talking to me and listening to me being sad. And of course he made me feel so much better. I am grateful for someone who I can talk to, and who actually cares. Most of the time Cru and I talk nonstop all day long. While we are doing everything else in our lives. We can't get enough of each other. But that's just how it goes when you're in love.

The best part is I am 100% myself around Cru. I have been since day 1. And so has he. I am a COMPLETELY different person today than I was a year ago. A completely different person. I have people tell me it all the time. And it's just that I am myself! I am happy and just so excited about life. I have things to look forward to instead of worry about. I have real life plans with someone who wants and believes everything I want and believe! I have someone who can take care of himself and me. He is just on top of it and has it figured out. Just the way he talks and the things he notices are so different from anything I have ever had. He reminds me of my brothers so much! He is just good. He wants what is best for me. I don't have to give or sacrifice anything I love in my life for him. He wants me the way I am. If i love it he wants me to have it. Even if he might be a little jealous, and doesn't really understand why. He is 100% supportive and is happy when he sees me happy. And I am the same way with him. Because we are constantly open about our feelings and we ALWAYS put each other first. I love you Cru. 

I could go on forever and I always say that, but it's so true. You are so different in the best way! 

I am the luckiest girl to have found you so soon in my life. 

Now get that ankle xrayed. And make July 2 come faster because I need you home with me!! Xoxoxo

Institute

Just got done with another wonderful lesson by Elder and Sister Hancock. I was craving some watermelon the other day and guess what... They brought us watermelon this morning. The blessings of doing what's right. Haha

Today's lesson was on why marriage and family's matter. We read two talks, one by Elder Perry and the other by Elder Christofferson. What I loved in Elder Perrys talk was verse 10 and 11...

As members of The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints we believe and know that marriage is beyond the grave. It is eternal. EVERLASTING! That made me have the biggest smile and feel the spirit so much in that moment because I immediately thought of Natalie. I can't imagine being with anyone else in the world besides her. I love her. I adore her. I deserve her. She makes me the happiness person in the world and when I start to think about the eternal prospective of marriage with us I am truly happy. 

Some advice that this talk gives parents is to lead by word and by example. A perfect example is if you tell your kids not to smoke and your are smoking they are most likely not going to listen to your council. We have to lead by word and example! 

When he closed this talk in verse 31-32 it was such a perfect closing to such an amazing talk. He could've testified of anything he wanted but he found families of great importance to testify of and bare witness from personal experience. It is the KEY to eternal happiness. 

Natalie I love you! My eternal companion in less than 2 months. :)

Finalized Honeymoon!

So I have been planning our honeymoon day in and day out for a week straight and finally got everything done last night. I was on the phone on and off with different travel agent, people that have experienced Phuket, Thailand before all day yesterday. I am not kidding you when I say all day... from 1pm-1am in the morning yesterday I was on my computer looking at places to stay. If you ever want to go to Thailand and don't know where to stay come talk to me. I think I know that island better than any native there.

This has always been Natalie's dream vacation. So excited to be there with her! We have been long distant all summer and can't wait to just be with her and relax for a week. JUST ME AND HER! I can't wait to spend this time with the most beautiful woman that my two eyes have ever seen and by then I can call her my WIFE! She is the best thing that has ever happened to me! 

What a dream this vacation is going to be! Now we need a really good camera because these views are going to be amazing.

Car accident!

Well today was awesome! 

I was driving my friends car and a woman hit us going 30-40 mph. Back hurts, neck hurts. Time for some ibuprofen!
