Trying this out

So I've tried blogging before with no success, maybe now i can do it. reading my soon to be sister-in-laws blog it made me want to try again so here's to trying!

24 days and counting! till i'm officially Jessica Cope! i couldn't be more excited! I came by a note book the other day when i was packing some things up to take to my new apartment and i just started readying one of them and it was saying how i felt like i was ready to make that next step in my life and find a good guy to marry and start a family with but all i seemed to be dating were mean jerks who were shallow and very disrespectful. i was very frustrated and made up my mind that i was not going to date and just concentrate on me and getting back in to school, and then not out of chance (i believe) i meet the most respectful, loving, caring, trust worthy guy ever! Devin Cope! we meet on line, which i use to have a problem telling people because  i feel like theres still that negative perception about online dating where you tell them and they judge or disapprove but i don't care anymore because i meet him and thats all that matters! and i couldn't be happier! I think i was suppose to meet devin because how we meet was so random, neither one of us was taking the dating website seriously. he saw my profile and thought hey why not and i emailed back cause i thought his pictures looked cute. it wasn't more than 4 emails back and forth that i gave him my number (which was unusual for me) and we texted and talked back and forth till we felt comfortable and decided to meet up. i still remember that first meeting. i was running late so i pulled up to cold stone and saw him sitting there and i said to my self "not bad not bad!" after we got our ice cream we went outside to eat and talk and i seriously couldn't stop staring right into his eyes (thats what hooked me first) and thinking he is just so cute and has so much going for him. after that first date i really didn't expect it to go anywhere with my bad luck track record of dating  and still had the mind set that i was not going to date i though friends at the very least. but something made me just try. and i'm so glad i listened because he is my everything and I'm lucky to be marrying him in the temple april 19th where i'll get him forever!!! yesterday i got the bishop portion of my temple recommend and was so excited cause it feels like its really almost here! i planned to hopefully get an interview with my steak president to finish the recommend on wednesday so i could go the first week of april to the temple and have time to go back before the wedding. well i got the call saying they didn't like to do that and i'd have to wait. i was so upset i cried, i wanted so bad to go beginning of april and had my mind set on doing that. I'm still upset about it. i feel ready and i feel like going back a couple times before i get married was a good thing for me. then to be told i couldn't was again sad and i cried till i fell asleep. but i know the main point is that i'll be going to the temple.
