August 7, 2004: Jimmy and Katie meet at a wedding in Idaho. They remained friends via email and phone for a few months and Jimmy would take Katie out on dates when he'd come visit in Utah.
Favorite date October 2004: He says the walk to the waterfall where I held Katie's hand for the first time. She says the movie 50 First Dates when we cuddled for the first time.
March 2005: Katie leaves for her mission to the Dominican Republic, Santo Domingo West mission. She writes to Jimmy.
August 2005: Jimmy leaves for his mission to the Dominican Republic, Santiago mission. The first person he thinks of when he opens his call? Katie!
October 2005: Katie can take a 15 minute bus ride to visit Jimmy in the Dominican MTC but remains obedient and does not see Jimmy for 2 years (so hard being so close on such a tiny island)!
They write every week of their missions and saved all the letters to prove it.
November 2006: Katie is home from her mission and waits 9 months for Jimmy to come home.
August 22, 2007: Katie and Jimmy's first kiss after 3 years of hoping and waiting!
December 11,2007: Engaged
April 26, 2009: Married forever, CA reception, CT reception, and partied with their people in the DR.
That is so awesome! 9 months really is a long time. A really, very, very long time. But you did it! You are done with the marathon! Now for the sprint!! (labor..hopefully it will be a sprint)
