READ PART ONE HERE.
It was March 21, 2013. I was out with Elisabeth taking pictures for our blogs when a fellow blogger that I had never met in real life sent me a Facebook message.
------------------------------
Brielle: K... this is so random but are you dating anyone?Haha my friend just got home from his mission & asked me to set him up with someone and you are the first person that came to mind! Is this awkward? Maybe.
Just go with it..
Me: Not awkward at all!! I'm 100% unfortunately single! Haha id love it
Brielle: haha awesome! he actually lives in Salt Lake for now but i told him you lived in Logan & he's totally up for a road trip.
Me: As long as you trust him with me I am so down! He can Facebook friend me if he wants you are so sweet to think of me!!
Brielle: I think he'd really like you I will tell him! and I will let you know what's gonna happen
Me: Sounds great Bri!!
------------------------------
Let's talk blind dates. Hate them. I have been on SO many. And it usually involves me talking ALL NIGHT LONG and prying words out of the other person's mouth. I was trying to be kind, one date couldn't hurt right? It probably comes with free dinner. Or ice cream... One more blind date won't kill me.
And then it happened. The boy messaged me...
------------------------------
Hey Brooklyn, so I was just talking to Brielle and she was telling me about her awesome friend that I should get to know, so I thought I would talk with you and get to know you if that's okay.------------------------------
I remember reading this message to Elisabeth and saying, "He wants to 'get to know me.' That sounds super creepy. He will probably never even take me out. And his last name is Jolley! If that's not a reason to marry him I don't know what is! What a great elementary school teacher name. Mrs. Jolley (insert laughter here). But he IS pretty cute... Well what the heck...."
