So this past week, while using the excuse of, “if I think about everything I have to do when I get up, it will save me a lot of time” when the alarm goes off, I’ve decided that I should begin blogging again. I even wrote the draft of my first new blog in my head. We’ll see how it comes out.
First of all, I realize I have been quite remiss in not blogging about the most important event of my life. However, I do have to give myself credit that it was also the busiest event/season of my life thus far. For those who were unaware, I have gotten hitched, changed my name, become the ball-and-chain…that’s right, I am now married. But I acknowledge that it’s best not to get too mushy about this here. So, I thought I’d give you the semi-brief, non-girly account of the wonderful tale that is Rachel and Chris Bailey.
Girl meets boy when he appears unexpectedly in her kitchen, toasting a bagel.
Boy teaches girl to be a pirate on the Provo River.
Girl discovers boy is in her molecular biology class as well as her ward.
Boy sits by girl in molecular biology.
Boy is very sweaty in molecular biology because he runs straight from a volleyball class.
Note: girl currently has other boyfriend who lives in Ogden.
While they wash their cars together and discuss above-noted situation, boy tells girl, “Well, it sounds like you want to break up with him.”
Girl dumps other boyfriend.
Girl is informed by Jena, when Jena learns of the dumping, “Good, because there’s someone who I think you should date!”
Boy makes spaghetti for girl at midnight when she gets home from studying.
Boy goes to girl’s house with girl and Nama.
Note: Boy is wearing “I love Jesus” shirt; thereafter, girl’s dad refers to boy as the “I love Jesus boy”
Boy drives girl to ward party in Idaho with Jena and Jon.
In Idaho, Jena asks girl, “Are you sure there’s no one you are interested in dating??”
Back at home, boy asks girl on first official date (with much help from the sly and amazing Love Doctor, Ms. Tina Whitaker).
Girl gives boy the oh-so-subtle idea that just maybe, oh I don’t know, kinda, if you wanted to, you could, oh perhaps…kiss me.
Boy, picking up what girl is laying down, obliges.
Girl and boy date
Girl tells girl’s family that she is dating boy, to which girl’s dad responds, “the I love Jesus boy??”
Boy and girl date…and date…and date…(this part is of course most interesting to me, but not as interesting to all of you perhaps)
Girl says, “I love you.”
Boy says, “For reals?”
Boy and girl take latin ballroom dance together and learn the rumba (that one’s for you Kimberly!).
Girl goes home w/ boy to meet boy’s family.
Boy’s family loves her.
Well, this is getting lengthier than I planned. I’ll finish later, if anyone is interested…

i gotta know how the story ends! i'm on the edge of my seat!!
yeay! rachel returns!!!
and might i say i'm glad i'm in your re-telling (although it took me a mintue to figure out what you were talking about)!
p.s. you are a darling!
Hooray! Cuz I've missed you! Maybe you can get your husband to start blogging again too!
Yay, I checked today cuz you promised last week, and look! You blogged! I'm so excited! Yay for you getting hitched!
Yes, I wish Chris would blog again with me...his were so much wittier than mine I fear. Yea that people are reading my blog! I like that.
I wanted to add this part, except I don't know where it fits in:
Boy's roommate and ex-roommate sit boy down and tell him that he has an incredible amount of chemistry with girl and that he should think more seriously about it.
I feel included and special.
*GRIN*
Yea! This is such a fun way to hear the more complete story!
Jon/Jena: this is news to me! How fun. I would like to more about this dialogue. Apparently, your persuasive power was eternally useful. You guys should go into business together or something.
I'm so glad you're back! I had no idea. Yay!
The rumba is always a good idea.
