That Feeling

This morning I woke up to snow falling down on the ground (I was so happy)! I absolutely love winter all because of Colton:)  

Mine and Colton's first date was over winter break.  We went ice skating with his cousin.  He was super awkward but made me laugh so hard!  The second I got into the car while huge butterflies were jumping all around my stomach, the first thing Colton said was, "You know I don't have my license right?"  and I just froze thinking for a second he was telling the truth.  Then I realized he was only kidding and we all started laughing.  After we were ice skating Colton and I went back to his house to watch a movie, "Fight Club" (don't worry, it was edited).  I met his family and the second I was in his house I felt at home.  After sitting 3 feet away from each other during the movie, Colton took me home and gave me the most awkward but the cutest hug then drove back home.  That night I fell asleep watching snow fall outside my window.

Colton invited me to his family party to celebrate New Years Eve.  I was so excited and got super dressed up and wore my hair curly.  I wanted his family to think I was the most beautiful girl ever (which I'm far form being), and empress them with my manners.  We laughed and played games all night!  I was sweating a lot because I was so nervous but so excited to be with Colton!  After dinner, Colton, his little brother, and I got dressed up in snow gear and went outside to play.  Colton and I were wrestling each other and flirting big time ;)  It was the best day of my life!  I couldn't have been more happy.  That night I went to bed while the snow sang me to sleep.

Colton asked me to "be his girlfriend" January 1 2011.  The next time we hung out I was heading out to go home.  When I got to my car (I took my sisters car) the doors were frozen and wouldn't shut.  Colton and his sister drove with me while they held the doors shut.  When we reached my house we all got into my car so I could take them home.  There was snow EVERYWHERE and my car wouldn't move.  Colton and his sister both got out and pushed my car two blocks, suddenly, I realized that my emergency break was on and that's what was keeping my car form moving!  I felt like the biggest idiot. That night I went to bed watching the snow laugh in my face. 

Snowboarding?  What?  Me?  I could never snowboard! but Colton wouldn't take no for an answer.  He took me snowboarding three times at the Canyons.  It was a blast but very intimidating and frustrating, but good thing I had a good teacher. :)  I loved snowboarding!  I wanted to become super good at it and impress him (definitely didn't happen) but I tried my best. That night I fell asleep sliding down a mountain of snow.

As you can see, I have a lot of memories with Colton and snow.  That's why days like today, when it snows, I get that feeling that brings back all the butterflies and all the senses of when Colton and I first met. I love that feeling.
