9 Months without my man



So I promised a post every three months reporting on my favorite missionary man and how the waiting is going.  Logan is doing super great. He's just working as hard as can be. Lots of the other missionaries like to call him Trunkie cuz he gets home sick a lot. So now that is his new nickname haha. He doesn't mind. I always tell him that I'm very Logan sick, so it doesn't make him feel bad.Its crazy to think that one year ago thanksgiving break, he was opening his mission call.  

Anyways so Logan has been serving near the city of Winnepeg in Manitoba for the last few months. He's been in the suburbs. Lately he's been in a dead area, so not too much work happening, but he's working hard. His companions have been really good and he seems to be liking the work. He tells me that is isn't the funnest years  of his life, that he liked being home a lot better, but he is trying his best. It's starting to get super cold where he is at, it's under ten degrees basically everyday. Luckily he's got lots of warm gear.  hopefully he'll survive the winter. 

As far as the both of us, we are doing great as a couple. I still write him every day, and he tries to write everyday, usually he only finds time to write around 3-4 days a week, but I'm totally fine with that. He is so good to me! We have a voice mail system where we send voice messages back and forth, and he is so cute, last time he had the voice chip he got up early every single morning for a whole week to record me messages. When I got it I had over 2 hours of his charming voice to listen to it was definitely the best day ever. I honestly couldn't ask for a sweeter boy, I can't even imagine ever being with anybody else, even from 1,000 miles away, he makes me so happy every day. 

I haven't gotten any new pictures for a long time so I'm really sorry. He promised me he would send a bunch for Christmas though. For Halloween I did send him a mustache in the mail haha. We are so silly. Here are those pictures of both of us with the mustache... we are so cool. 



So that is us we are really silly sometimes. I'm doing pretty good. I still am keeping my promise that I will stay true to him, and keep him as my one and only. Don't worry though, I'm not just sitting being lonely all the time. I have lots of friends and go on daily adventures haha.  I just miss him so incredibly bad. The missing never really goes away, there is always something to remind me of how much I love and miss him. I'm expecially nervous for the next three months and all the good memories they hold. Christmas, , Football Championship, New years, our 4 year anniversary, Valentines, then his 1 year mark. I may have a couple breakdowns lol. Nothing is the same without him, so these next few months will be tough to be apart, but I believe in us. 

I really do not like this nine month landmark. I always compare the mission to running a mile on a high school track, so this would mean a lap and half done, 2 and a half to go. I feel like he's been gone for a lifetime, and he's still not even half way. It's going to be a long rest of  the mission haha. I shouldn't complain though, our relationship is like a fairy tale and we are in love more than ever. I am blessed a ton to have him out serving the Lord and to have this time to better myself as well. So I'm spending all my time trying to better myself and work super hard. Plus I still have lots of fun and loving life, just not as much as i did with my bestest friend Logan.  

I hope that didn't all feel like one big ramble. So yup... There is 9 months for ya! 

When I go back to my apt. and have all his letters, I want to put a post of some of my favorite quotes from his letters.. So that will be a really fun read. stay tuned... here's a sneak peek at a few quotes from emails ☺
