The Dating: Our Story

"If I can do something all over again, I would've met you sooner, so I can love you longer..."

I never would've thought that we'd end this way. Our story will always be that he was Once upon a time, someone I handed my rent checks to and I was the dorm girl. I loved coming into his office and chatting with him even just for a while about the randomest things I could possibly talk about to the more serious issues that went on in the Hotel. He's always had this rule that he wouldn't date a Plaza Girl while he resides at the Lodge and works for both, unless the girl moved out of the hotel... I've lived at the Plaza Hotel for 2 and a half years and I've ALWAYS wanted to move out after my first semester at the LDS Business College but I just couldn't. Above all the things that went on, all the dramas and such, I loved meeting new people from all over the world. I was able to make tons and tons of friends to hang out and do homework together.

He would sit behind his desk and during his boring hours, he went on Facebook or watched movies and maybe just maybe he bugged a girl or two ;)

He's sincere, trustworthy, honest, hardworking, caring, unwavering, thoughtful, a worthy priesthood holder, an Eagle Scout that is so fully proud that he holds it and loving. He usually opens the door for me, if he waits to put his hand on my door first. There are times when we've joked around and he unlocks the door as I'm walking in front of him so I end up opening the door and he gives me this look that I'm NOT supposed to open the door to myself. He is such a gentleman AT ALL TIMES. I love being thought of and pointed out as THE ONE for him. He cares a lot about my well-being and who I will forever be. He protects me when I'm sick and when I'm in desperate need of HIM. I love that he smiles often as it warms my heart. I love that he knows that he truly is the one for me. I'm comforted that the Holy Spirit has guided me along this long journey of love and finding the right one for me.

I've always told myself that I wanted to see how he treats his mother because more than likely that's how He will treat me. I am comforted by the fact that he knows that I am a Daughter of God and he protects my Virtue. I am dumbfounded by how much of a gentleman he is to his Sisters, Mother, and Me. He loves to serve others and I respect him fully with all the things that he is and what he will forever be.

On November 5th, We went to the Draper Temple and did baptisms. He did my confirmations and baptisms. I love that he holds the Priesthood and lives the gospel with honor and righteousness. After he was done baptizing me, he whispered into my ears that were clogged with chlorine water and said, "I told you, you looked good in WHITE!" We then went back to his house and showered, separately, of course. And got ready to play in the snow. Later that night, he read me his Patriarchal Blessing. It was so fully detailed in regards to all that he needs to do from his Mission to living a peaceful life with his Eternal Companion. I am blessed to be one day, become a part of his life fully. I love him with all my heart, might, mind, soul, and strength. I am blessed to be his future wife as I know Heavenly Father has watched both of us grow a long the journey of finding the right person for the both of us. He strengthens me spiritually, emotionally, physically... He amazes me daily with how much hard working of a man he truly is. He enlightens me with the gospel by the testimony he's grown up with and I know that one day he will be an amazing Father to his children and a wonderful Husband to me. I want to be able to help him with his daily needs and provide comfort during his hard times. I want to be the one he feels the need to speak with his problems either at work or home. I want to be able to establish a house of Zion for our family and live with the Gospel, guided by the Spirit. I want to be able to teach my children right from wrong and be accompanied by the Holy Ghost through our hard times.


The following are dates that we have done and we try to do different things every time we see each other so that we can get to know each other in different ways possible.

First Date: Saturday, August 27, 2011. Dinner at Pei Wei and Ice Cream at Sugar House. It was nice and casual. Loved his sweet and outgoing personality. Someone that I wasn't afraid of letting myself go fully. Oh what do you know, things can happen from here on out.. we shall see. **drum roll** Dun dun dun ;) He's a great guy and I love being around this man! I hope to get to know him more!

He cancelled and moved our next date because he wanted to take care of his mother who was sick the day before our date. This is something that I told myself, I would want to see in a Man... how he takes care of his mother... and I really don't even need to see how he treats her because everything he does is just done with respect and I know that he respects me so much.

Second Date: Friday, September 2, 2011. A picnic at the Memorial Grove Park with a game of Croquet and a walk to the State Capitol. Oh he's adorable and sweet like sugar! It was super cute. We had a view of people taking Bridal pictures and a wedding ceremony happening, also families walking their dogs and having a great time as well. He taught me how to play croquet. I thought it was the weirdest thing but it was actually really fun, especially, when you're trying to hit  the ball over the bridge. AND HE KISSED ME! AHA! Oh those soft and sweet lips of his. I am in love ;)

Third Date: Saturday, September 3, 2011. A dinner at Biaggi's Italian restaurant. It was yummy food with the best company ever! I'm just learning more and more things about him. Learning about someone is so significant in a way that it's so important just in case anything happens ya know?!?

Fourth Date: Friday, September 9, 2011. We were planning on going on a hike but it started raining at the Mountains! geeze! Instead, we ended up going to the Greek Festival and enjoyed each other's company and enjoyed our time. We then went to get Italian Gelato at this place I've never even thought existed! And it was so good! I got Nutella and Strawberry Flavors! Yummy!

Fifth Date: Saturday, September 10, 2011. I had an amazing time with Jenny, Natalie, and Dana watching Super 8 and I have never freaked a girl out until I watched this movie and screamed and jumped so much and it was just hilarious! Then, Chris picked me up for a quick dinner at Zushi for Sushi ;) haha. We had a good time eating sushi. He's so much fun! Poor guy was still super sick and I think it's cute that he would still want to spend even the littlest time with me.

Sixth Date: Friday, September 16, 2011. I rode trax down to Sandy to see him and he took me to show me his cozy workplace and his Step dad's as well. Then he took me to Sonic to get dinner and took it to his house. I then met his Mother and Step dad! They are the cutest and the sweetest.. I wouldn't mind coming back ;) Then we watched Battle Los Angeles and enjoyed the rest of the night being with each other. Surprising enough, I stayed awake through an action movie.

Seventh Date: Saturday, September 17, 2011. He got really creative with this date. He took me to three different malls for dinner.

South Town Mall: Appetizer
Fashion Place Mall: Dinner
Gateway Mall: Dessert

It was the longest dinner of my life yet it was so much fun being around him and going on long walks around the mall and driving all over the place as well! Although, he was so sick and I was a bit crippled and it was still fun.

A conversation that happened 09/20/2011:

Chris: Do you plan on going to Relief Society Conference?
Me: Yes I plan on doing that.
Chris: That's my girl! Spirituality... it's so hot!
Me: I like to keep my fire burning ;)
Chris: Your fire is a freakin bonfire ;)
Me: Are you a thief? Because your eyes sparkle more than the stars
Chris: Did it hurt... when you fell from heaven?
Me: No because you caught me when I did ;)
Chris: Oh yeah! Good comeback!
Me: I'm trying to get a touchdown ;)
Chris: Game over... you win ;)

Wednesday, September 21, 2011: Today, I was really really sick and he already came by to visit me in the morning because he was doing some training at the Marriott Hotel across the street. What a hardworking man, right?!? Then, he came back later today to give me a blessing so that I can feel better a lot faster. He brought me a dozen roses, a balloon that says GET WELL, a Princess paper bag that contained daytime and nighttime medication, nasal spray, The Prince and I movie, bubbles, Vitamin C cough drops, Justin Bieber Magazine, Ibuprofen, toothpaste, and mouthwash... Just what a sick girl needs. and he called me his princess tonight <3 Oh how I admire everything he is and everything that he does. He is just the sweetest man!!

The cutest thing is the expressions and the looks on the girls' faces when he treated me the way that... HE ALWAYS DOES!!




Saturday, October 1, 2011:
Today, we were supposed to go to Jump On It in Provo until Stevie Fox cancelled on our fabulous group date that we had planned for over a week. Geeze, girls can be a pain sometimes. So instead, I took the train down to Sandy and watched the morning session of General Conference with him, had lunch and enjoyed each other's company. He then dropped me off at work. Work was a pain in the butt. I was a Rover, which meant wherever I'm called over to help, I would be there in no time. I also did 3 emergency clean-ups and in CHURCH Sunday Dress! Who does that?!? But the rest of the time went by quickly.. Thankfully!


Sunday, October 2, 2011: Today is Chris' birthday and I surprised him with General Conference PM session tickets.. Happy Birthday! Now go listen to the General Authorities lecture you about what you should and should be doing right now!! lol We had such a great time. So many things to take in and revelations happening! I'm so thankful for this Church and I know that it's true! Then, we went to have family dinner with his Sister Kate, Will, and baby Lyndee, and his Mother, and stepdad. Such a fun and loving.. and VERY welcoming family! I loved being there today. We played board games and also with the baby. The family has got quite the humor which I love so much. Will has a funny character! Meeting the family was the best thing ever and they just made me feel so at home, no words can even express how great I feel right now!!


Wednesday, October 5, 2011: Today is my not so little anymore brother's birthday, Cyrus, and Chris' sister Kate's birthday! Today, Mary Anne comes home from school and asks if I can smell "Fall" and she told me how she totally dislikes twilight but really wants to watch it. So I then asked Chris if he owns the movie and he replied and said Yes and in fact I could have it because he doesn't want it in his collection of movies anymore. Anyhow, today I also turned in a whole bunch of job applications to look for another part-time or full-time job because I gotta pay off my bills and such. So GOOD NEWS! I got a second interview for Victoria's Secret and an Interview for tomorrow for Gymboree. I am so excited. After I did that, I rode trax down to Sandy and saw Chris so that I could borrow his Twilight movie. He took me to Paradise Cafe and we had Chili Soup during this rainy day and a Sandwich. It was quite delicious. Then we sat for a couple hours at his work and talked about random stuff and I observed him "at work," he put music on my phone and all kinds of other stuff. Oh and He also slow danced with me to THE VERY THOUGHT OF YOU, a good oldie. Uggh he is a dream come true I tell you!

Here's a text I received from him tonight:
You are my final puzzle piece to a large and scenic puzzle.

Thursday, October 6, 2011: Today's interview at Gymboree went very well and they said they would call me either tonight or tomorrow and I've got my fingers crossed on this. I'm really not feeling good tonight and I think the pain in my stomach has taken over me....****Hours later and an hour after work**** Chris took me to the LDS Hospital. Long story short findings were Ovarian Cyst and UTI. I took blood tests and CAT Scans, and an ultrasound. Twas the longest night of our lives. We stayed there until Friday, October 7th at 7am.

Thursday, October 14, 2011: CHRIS SAID I LOVE YOU! and it was a full moon ;) I thought that he was so stinkin' cute by how he at first was a little shaky and maybe wanted to say it, maybe didn't but I knew he felt that it was the right time. We baby sat Myles prior to him saying I love you. I enjoyed watching Myles with him and seeing how he loved to interact with his nephew. He warms my heart so much that I don't know what I would do without him.

Chris said: You make my life a daily joy. Each kiss is a pleasure multiplied by the beating of our two hearts.

Another conversation that went on:
Chris: Clearly it's a long process! I must have done a few things right. You're my chocolate silk pie.
Trish: You've done it all right! You're an amazing man and I love it all!
Chris: Thanks baby!! You are my silver lining!!
Trish:... (changes subject) all I want for Christmas is you!
Chris: You make everyday Christmas!
Trish: You make everyday Valentine's Day at the Celestial Kingdom ;) If there's even one. And if there isn't one, we'll make it happen eh?
Chris: How can I beat that!! You're awesome and stuff!
Trish: I like that you like what I do. It makes me like you too ;)
Chris: I love that you love me!!
Trish: I love that you play the game the right way, makes me wanna play it more ;) aha!
Chris: Define "the right way" please?
Trish: I'm only talking about the funny phrases we're bouncing back and forth. I don't even like the fact that people call dating a "game" when it shouldn't be. So hope this helps.
Chris: I love that there are no games with you and I. I love our little word game. It makes me laugh and that is a good thing.
Trish: For the sake of analogy: it's Because we're in it to win it. And we know what we both want as an outcome ;)
Chris: True dat yo!! I love you baby! You are my prize!
Trish: Mosiah 4:27! And see that all these things are done in wisdom and order; for it is not requisite that a man should run faster than he has strength. And again, it is expedient that he should be diligent, that thereby he might win the prize; therefore all things must be done in order.
Chris: I am amazed by you!! Thank you for sharing the scripture. You are awesome!
Trish: If there truly was a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, you'd be the only one I'd want to conquer all the treasure with.
Chris: I'd travel to Mount Doom and back again with you at my side ;)
Trish: I love you and that is all I treasure
Chris: You're my treasure.
Trish: You're sweeter than mind chocolate chip ice cream!
Chris: You're my chocolate cookies and cream Ice Cream which I found in the grocery store. It's heaven sent ...just like you.
Trish: Did you really just get ice cream? LOL I love it!
Chris: I did!! It's awesome! Just like you!!
Trish: That just made my day! LOL you're awesome just like the view I love to see when we get to that one street you drive by when you drop me off during the weekend.
Chris: What street is that? I love you for all that you are. All ten toes and fingers.
Trish: I think it's that hill before Hobby Lobby. By Alta View Intermountain Hospital. I love passing by that hill. I love you from the tips of your fingers to the ends of your soul ;)
Chris: Oh yea that is a gorgeous view. I love sharing tender moments with you.


Chris: You are my missing puzzle piece.
Trish: Does that mean i'm the last puzzle piece?
Chris: No but you're the one that makes the other pieces possible if that makes sense.
Trish: Yes it does ;) oh the mystery of the puzzle pieces.
Chris: Tell me about it..but I have you and that's all that matters.
Trish: You can keep me and have me, if you want it all!
Chris: I do want it all!
Trish: So have it. ;)

Trish: I'm excited. Life is filled with so many excitements.
Chris: That is very true!! There is always something going on.
Trish: And you're a part of it!
Chris: You are a part of mine too!! I am putting your David Foster and Friends songs on a memory stick. I even added a few extra songs to let you know how I feel for you.
Trish: Oh my cute! I love you tons and tons!
Chris: I know you do... I am a stud ;) I love you too!
Trish: What would I do without you?!?! ...I don't know because I don't think about it! Aha!
Chris: Was there a moment we weren't together... I don't recall ;)
Trish: Brilliant! I like the way you think.
Chris: You're Brilliant.


November 11, 2011: Today Chris and I went to U Swirl for Frozen Yogurt and Schmidt's Pastries and Sandwiches for our Dessert Date! It was so much fun especially with the fact that eating with your right arm broken which leaves you to really try eating with your left hand...It sucked but he sure loved taking pictures of me. No offense but I think the reason why desserts come last is because you can only have so little sweets and I kind of felt a little sick to my stomach after our date but part of the sickness must have been from my Lortab but I'm okay. I also went to work tonight only because it's Friday and there's really nothing going on on Fridays so I went and finished my job in less than 20 minutes. WORLD RECORD!

Trish: I love you so much, thank you for all you do for me!
Chris: I thank God for you. You are my heart. :)
Trish: You are my world
Chris: You are my good times!!
Trish: I'd rather be beside you in a storm, than safe and warm by myself :)
Chris Your words mean the world to me. Even better is  your words translated into actions.
Trish: There's nothing better in this world than to be wrapped in your arms and hold you tight. 
Chris: Well COME AND GET ME!!

I don't want to disclose everything about our life together... This is only the beginning to a happy ending. He IS my knight and shinning armor, the one that I look forward to spending the rest of my life with. When he looks into my eyes and says those three meaningful words.. I have no doubt that it was indeed a revelation, an honest truth, the answer to my prayers... that Heavenly Father sent me this man to spend all ETERNITY with. 

Tonight he said, "ETERNITY is FOREVER... and I want to be able to, 50,000 years later... hold your hand and say to my wife, 'I love you still for all eternity' "....

I had quite a bit of an emotional day, and he lets me have his shoulders to cry on, that someone that I really can depend on, no matter what struggles, trials, storms.. whatever you wanna call it... comes my way.

I LOVE YOU CHRISTOPHER MORGAN BREEDON! for all that you were, are, and forever will be. And Just like Beauty and the Beast, I accept that things will get ugly, but I will stand next to you, preferably on your "right" side, and still love you.

This is the Fairytale I NEVER want to end...

-Trisha Janelle
