A Little History.

Dustin and I met in 2006 at the Old Cottonwood hospital. I was working in the OR and he was a Security Guard. (and the best looking security guard you'll have ever seen.) I, soon after meeting him, moved up to McKay Dee Hospital in Ogden. We barely knew eachother, but everytime I saw him, I knew that he could be the one for me. It wasnt until 2008 that my life would change forever.
I came back to the new Cottonwood hospital called Intermountain Medical Center back to the OR in late 2007. That was the best decision of my life. I saw Dusitn one day walking down the hallway and I whistled at him. As he turned around, he smiled at me and my heart melted. I knew then that I wanted him in my life. 
I can remember one time Dustin and I, Matt and his friend, and another friend of mine went up to the Crystal Hot Springs. That was the first time he held my hand. And yes, call it what you will, but my hand fit perfectly in his! From there, we fell in love.
Something you should know before our first date. Dustin had a pet Black Widow Spider.... I HATE SPIDERS!!
We had our first official date on Feb. 7th 2008. We doubled with our friends Bryce and Brittney. It started with dinner and bowling. Then we went Dustins apartment and watched Hairspray (the musical.) and the boys LOVED it! lol Not. After that, Dustin told me that the spider could die if I killed it. I then proceeded to spray the inside of the bowl with hairspray and light it on fire. Creeped me out. We went to flush the thing down the toilet when Bryce and Brittney shut the lights off and locked the door. They told us that we could come out after Dustin kissed me. That was emberassing! Soon after trying to get out, we shared our first kiss. What a great first kiss. What a way to end the perfect first date.
From there, it was a whirlwind of a romance..... or something like it. :)
We became "official" Feb 15th. I told him I loved him 6 weeks into our relationship. I told him, and he sighed, like it was a huge disappointment. Poor guy, I bombarded him with my love. I knew he wasn't ready for anything serious. He was never the type to be serious. I was his first girlfriend. But its a good feeling to know I was his first. :)
We dated for 8 months before he proposed on Oct 25th 2008. We were married 6 months after that on April 25th 2009. That day was the best day of my life. It was the day I knew that I got the opportunity to spend the rest of Eternity with my best friend. Dustin Brooksby is my one and only. And I knew it from that first kiss. :)
That day was also the last day I would see Bryce Moss alive. Bryce was a dear friend who worked at the Hospital with us. He was security with Dustin and Matt. He was my little Mario. My friendship with Bryce was rocky most of the time, but he was one of the best people to come into my life. Bryce was diagnosed with a cancer that is brought on by transplants. When he was a kid Bryce had 3 kidney transplants. He, from there, became 3KT. They say regrets are what form us for the rest of our lives, and I have regrets with Bryce. And I have learned that life really is too short. And words will stick with you for the rest of your life, even when you are the one saying them. I wish I had more time with him. I wish I could tell him I love him one last time.
Dustin and I lived in his little one bedroom apartment for a few months until we could get the 2 bedroom apartment around the corner. We were there for a year and a half. We bought our first house December 2010.
In April 2011, we found out that we were expecting out first child. I can't even begin to tell you how ecxited I was! We found out actually on the day we were celebrating our 2 year anniversary. And to be honest, I couldn't have asked for a better present. That day changed our lives forever!
