How it happened...And it did happen

Welcome everyone to the first post of our blog! There have been lots of questions about how Dana and I happened. So...It's story time.

Once upon a time there was this really confused girl name Jennifer Bowman. She had a missionary coming home and she wanted to give him a chance. She had nearly made up her mind and thought her decision was concrete when she started to spend time with the missionary.

The semester before her missionary came home she had been dating a boy named Dana Weston. He made her laugh and they became best friends

She told Dana that she wanted to see how things went with the missionary that was coming home. Dana was very patient with Jennifer and still dated her even after she had told him about the missionary.

The day the missionary came home he proposed to her and she said yes. That night though she was having second thoughts. A lot of doubts went through her mind. She really liked the missionary but something didn't seem right.

Jennifer spent the next two weeks with the missionary. They drove from Eugene, Oregon down through Fresno, California back up to Salt Lake City, Utah. The two of them spent a lot of time talking and Jennifer did a lot of thinking but she couldn't settle on the thought of marrying him - even as good of a boy as he was.

She finally made a decision about what to do. Jennifer decided to make no decision. School was her next step. They drove to Rexburg with the understanding that they would no longer be an item when he left.

Jennifer needed to return some totes she had borrowed from Dana so she texted him. From that day on the spent all the time together that they could. In the first couple of days they played with the football, went shooting, conoeing, went on a walk. In a few days Jennifer decided that she was ready to date him again. She no longer felt confused after a couple of days with him. Dana was ok with dating again so they did.
