Have you ever known a perfect day?
Yesterday was a perfect day, only accepting the fact that I got elbowed and hit in the head a couple of times, mostly by that dear Connor boy who has arms too long for his own good. Anyway! First thing in the morning we walked to the Marriott Center on BYU campus to partake in the dedication of the Provo City Center Temple. It was such a sweet meeting and Connor amazes me because he is constantly amazed by others. I love him so dearly! There was a girl and guy sitting next to us that were hitting it off quite splendidly and he asked her out after the whole thing was over. It made me so happy to hear all of that. I ran into Saundra Fife on the way out of the Marriott center then we went home to make googly eyes at each other and kiss a little while my roommates got ready for the afternoon session of the dedication. We talked about a lot of things that made me get butterflies in the pit of my stomach. Then I made waffles and we sang and danced around the kitchen. Connor submitted a scholarship essay and I indexed. Then we left to meet up with Maia to drive to Kaysville for Connors extended families Easter dinner! I met Marguerite who is his adorable 90 and a half year old French blind grandmother! She's the most darling little thing! I met his aunts and uncles and cousins and we had an Easter egg hunt and played some killer games of badminton and ate some delicious food and laughed a LOT. I asked Maia if it was all right with her if I married her brother, she said yes and we both teared up a bit and it made me so happy to have a would be sister-in-law that I love so much! She's so very excited for us and I'm so very excited for us and to have found a friend in her! I looked over at Connor when he was driving us home and just kind of enjoyed the darkness and the bumps of the car and how quiet things were for a moment. I'm confident I'll remember how he looked half smiling with his eyes on the road lost in his own thoughts after the glory of our day together. He's so handsome and strong and marvelous. All in all a perfect day. It ended with us talking with his dad and Maia on the phone, well, I mostly just laid on his chest with my eyes shut and listened. Someday I will get enough sleep. But today is not that day!
