Today it as been 2 years since Ron and I went on our first date. I remember it like it was yesterday. He texted me and we got talking a little bit (via text) and then after like 15 minutes of texting he asked me if I wanted to go out with him that night. I just remember him asking me what I wanted to do and I texted him that I didn't want to go to a movie cause I felt like you couldn't get to know someone when you go see a movie. It was kind of funny cause I was always against someone asking me out through texting and thought that was not a proper way to ask someone out, but hey, why not and I went. I got ready and looked in the mirror about 15 times before I actually went upstairs. When he rang the doorbell I stood at the stairs and had my mom go get the door and waited a few seconds before I actually went to the door. The wait is supposed to mean you are busy and not really waiting for him to come, right! He was in his scrubs still because he had come right from the hospital. Grandma Scoville was sick in the hospital and the family had been up there. Well we were driving to his house so he could change and I remember he wanted me to look at something on his IPhone. I think he was trying to show off his new toy. Well, I was not impressed at all. I thought that the IPhone was such a waste of money, but I figured, well I guess he is a dentist and has the money( well, besides the hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loans:)) Well anyway, we were going to his house and he missed his exit! Ha ha, yeah, I thought it was because he was mystified by my beauty! Yeah, that was not it at all! 2 years later and he still misses exits no matter who is in the car. Well, we got to his house and he changed and then we went to the junction and went on this virtual roller coaster and I about threw up, but acted like I was fine. Ron was kinda touchy and it scared me to death:) Ron was easy to talk to though and I learned that there is no secrets in Ron's life. He told me that he had been married before and about what happened. I remember thinking that the only thing that was important to me was that he had done everything he could to make his first marriage work. I remember him saying, "I guess I can't force someone to stay with me." I didn't like the junction cause the music was so loud and so went went back to his house and on the way back that is when I really started to see what an amazing person Ron was. He was telling me about his grandma and how she was sick. The way he talked about his grandparents was with so much love and respect. He then continued to talk about his sisters. He started tearing up a little bit as he talked about Stephanie and what an amazing mom she was with her three boys and how patient she was with them ( this is our first date might I add and the tears were coming). He teared again as he talked about Wendy as well. When we got to his house it was about 11:00 and he asked me if I wanted to watch a movie. I remember thinking to myself, "are you serious, it takes about 45 min to take me home and you want to watch an hour and a half long movie, no thanks." Well, he took me home and we talked some more. That was my favorite part of the date, just talking. He was a gentleman and opened all of my doors. I wasn't sure what I thought of him yet, but I loved who I was when I was with him. Over the next few months, we were together almost everyday and I learned more and more who Ron really is and have been so impressed everyday I am with him. I loved who I was because I felt like I didn't have to worry about anything. I didn't have to worry about being put into a situation that I felt upcomfortable in because he would not go to those places himself. We were engaged 2 months later later and married 3 months after that and that has been the best decision I ever made.
Love you, Ron

family and softball
Well, this past week I have been helping my dad put in the ceiling in the new dental office and it has been a lot of fun. I love my family so much! We put a softball team together with the Kawaguchi family and it is so much fun. I am horrible at softball, but my family makes up for it! I play right field because that is where the ball NEVER comes! Well, at least it is not suppose to come there. Anyway, tonight, Brandy and I were playing outfield and a pop fly started coming toward me and I started running toward it and then decided that Brandy could maybe get to it and I yelled, "Brandy, it's yours". Well, it dropped to the ground and she ran after it. Not my moment of glory of the night, but everyone sure laughed. Like I said, softball is not my sport, but I am having so much fun with my family.

Ronny......
So I have just lately been so amazed with all that Ron does. For anyone that does not know Ron, he is amazing. Truly amazing! The other night we were driving home from Salt Lake and we were talking about what the biggest trials have been in our lives and as we talked about them, I am so grateful for a covenent marriage and such a wonderful husband who helps me through my trials. He tries so hard in all that he does. Some of the things that I love about Ron are:
- He loves me:) Ron always tries so hard to make me happy. And he succeeds! I remember when we were first dating that we were talking about the book, "Five Languages of Love" and I said that I am not much of a flower person, but that I like words and notes. I got a bouquet of orchids at work with a note that said, "I know you are not much of a flower person, but hopefully the note will make up for it". Now, I he writes me notes all the time that express his love!
- He honors his priesthood. Ron truly provides, presides, and protects our family. He is so good to make sure that we have scripture study and FHE. He also is the most diligent home teacher I have ever met. He truly loves those families he visits and would do anything for them.
- He loves to learn. He loved dental school and I have never heard him say one negative thing about his time through dental school. He always wants to take more CE courses and he always learns everything he can about a product before buying something( He even reads all of the user manuels, I didn't know people even did that).
-He loves to serve! One of the first things that I noticed when we were dating, was that he loved to serve (especially his family). I remember being so impressed that he was so eager to help his family and his grandpa. He finds joy is serving! I am so grateful for wonderful parents who are such great examples of service.
-Ron is very selfless. I have learned so much from him and want to be as selfless to him as he is to me. I think the last 10 movies we have watched have been total chick flicks:) Another example is last Saturday Ron was really looking forward to watching the USC game and I really wanted to go to the Farmer's Market. I didn't think I would get to go, but he asked me if I wanted to go and he would go with me. We got home in time for the game, but the fact that he went with me made me feel so good.
-Ron is such a hard worker! I always thought I was a hard worker,but Ron puts me to shame when we start working together. He even goes all day without eating! I don't know how he does it. When Ron and I first got married and we were cleaning up our yard, I think he cut down like 22 trees in 3 days. He is not only a dentist, but he landscapes, he builds houses ( well, with Eric's help), and always has about 5 projects going at the same time. Here are some pictures of Ron and Eric remodeling the basement and some pictures of the end result.

- Ron is so talented! He is very good at racquetball, he is a great pianist, although he may not think this is a talent, he is wiz on the computer (well, on macs), and many many more things.
Well, these are a few things about Ron that I love. I can't wait until we have kids. He will be the best dad and he already is the best husband. Love you Ron!!!
