I'm sitting here and a thought came to my head. I don't have mine and Trevor's story written down anywhere! It's not like some crazy story but I need to write it down for my posterity's sake!
WARNING: This is going to be extremely long. I want to write down every detail I can possibly remember!
Lets head back all the way to around 2004/2005. Fossil Ridge Intermediate School is the backdrop. I was in 7th grade and Trevor was in 6th. (I know I'm a cougar.. it runs in both sides of our families!). I am pretty shy, but when I was in intermediate school I was extremely shy. Trevor is not shy. Not at all. Not even in the slightest! (Hence the title of our blog..). Trevor and I had a theater class together. Do not ask me why the most shy girl in the whole school was put in a theater class. I was constantly mortified! Trevor had to be hands down thee most annoying boy I had ever met. Ever. He was so hyper and talked all the time. Seriously he was off the wall. He had his ears pierced and little judgmental Lacy thought it was dis.gust.ing. This boy drove me nuts. Well whatever, the next semester we didn't have that class so naturally I put that boy out of my mind!
Now I'm a sophomore at Pine View High School and Trevor is attending Pine View Middle School as a freshman. My twin brother Luke was a wrestler and so the coach asked some of the sisters of the wrestlers to be Stat Girls. (Basically a score keeper). Uh yeah I snatched that opportunity right up! Hanging out with cute boys all weekend? Um..sure. I had remembered Trevor as that annoying boy from intermediate school but I honestly didn't think much of him.
It's the first day of Desert Storm which is a wrestling tournament at Dixie High School. I was sent to the junior varsity room to take stats where Trevor was and being his first year of wrestling he wasn't the greatest. (Don't worry he got to be pretty amazing!). I remember sitting down taking stats when he came and sat next to me after losing both his matches. He started talking to me and I honestly can't remember what we said but I felt so incredibly comfortable talking to him. I was still pretty shy then but I could actually talk to him and be myself! It was such an amazing feeling. I also thought he had grown to be pretty cute! He obviously took the earring out. Thank you.. We talked (flirted) for awhile but then he got in trouble by one of the coaches for talking to the stat girls. Oops! I instantly had a crush. It was a two day tournament but Trevor was beat out so he didn't come the second day. I was super sad about it. It was also the last tournament before school was out for Christmas break so I wasn't going to see him for a month or so!
I seriously couldn't get that dumb boy out of my mind and I kept dreaming about him which didn't help. Its now New Years Eve and my friends and I were going to First Night. I kept thinking that I would see him there so naturally I got all dolled up. I searched for him all night.. although I may have been looking at the rest of the cute boys, too. The girl can't help it! I saw his friend Paul and so we went and said hi and he gives us a big hug and says to me, "Trevor is over there.. I bet he would love to see you!". My mind is going a million miles an hour and I'm thinking to myself.. He must have been talking about me if Paul said that! Ah! Oh my gosh! Do I hug him? What do I do!? So we all walk over there and I see him and he is with another girl! He gave us a big hug but I was crushed. I was so sad. I was pretty depressed for the rest of the night. Great way to ring in the New Year eh?
I got over him pretty fast actually. I had more important things to worry about. Like senior boys. Who needs that stupid freshman. Not I. Although I no longer liked Trevor we continued to stay friends. Every time I saw him he was flirting with the other stat girls or any girl for that matter. Player..
Now fast forward to the next wrestling season. Trevor and I became pretty good friends and joked around a lot. He came to my house a few times with a group of friends and my parents instantly liked him. I liked a bunch of different boys between the last wrestling season so I was pretty over Trevor. Or so I thought.. I started developing feelings for him..and another boy. It's now state wrestling and I was having the best time hanging out with all these guys. I talked to Trevor and the other boy a lot. I was totally leaning towards the other boy because Trevor kept flirting it up with another girl. However Trevor ended up telling me he liked me and I told him I liked him back but that I also liked someone else as well. Now we are on the bus ride home and I totally cuddled with the other boy. Supposedly Trevor was going to ask me to be his Valentine (haha! he's so cute.) and here I was cuddling with another boy. I remember looking over at him and he looked extremely sad and the other stat girls were comforting him. I didn't realize it was about me. I was a little.. preoccupied.
So I ended up dating the other boy for a few months. Trevor would not even look at me in the halls. Whatever.. Obviously things didn't end up working with that other boy and Trevor found out and was texting me and was saying that the other boy didn't realize what he had lost. Awwwww! He told me he liked me and I told him I liked him and he goes "REALLY!?!?". Woahhh down tiger. For some reason nothing happened. Oh well. We continued to stay friends.
Now onto the next wrestling season. My senior year and his junior year. He wasn't going to wrestle that year and just focus on running. I was so depressed and I begged him to do wrestling because he was my best friend on the team! I totally talked him into it. (Insert smug face). Nothing happened this year besides becoming even closer friends because I just didn't really have any feelings for him. We played tennis once. I beat him. He says he beat me but don't listen to him.
Okay now is the weird part.. for me anyway! I'm graduated and he is still in high school. I hadn't talked or heard from Trevor for quite some time. It's now wrestling season again. Obviously everything happened during that time! My niece and I happened to go to Wendy's one day and we walked in and I see Trevor and some other wrestlers. I had the weirdest feeling come over me when I saw him. This sounds so cheesy, I know. I honestly had never felt this way before. It literally took my breath away. What is going on!? I became super shy and didn't know what to do or say! We ordered our food and went and sat down at the table text to them. I said hi and he invited us over to sit with them. We talked and he told me to put his number into his phone because he got a new phone and didn't have my number anymore. While I was entering in my number he got a text from a girl. Oh no here this goes again! I had heard he was kinda dating someone.. dang. Apparently after I left he rubbed it into the other wrestlers faces that he got my number! ha!
That night I went to the wrestling match and I talked to him after. We talked about having a "Beatles Night" because we both shared a major love for The Beatles. I remember thinking how cute he was while I was talking to him. I wouldn't admit to myself that I liked him. I saw the girl he liked and he went and talked to her. Ah man! A few days later there was a dance going on at the college and I invited him to come with me and a group of friends. He totally stood me up!! (Okay okay, apparently he was trying to find a ride but couldn't..). I was so sad though. I remember talking to my friend and telling her how jealous I was and admitted that I liked him. A couple days later he invited me to go to the movies with his friends but I couldn't because I was at my nieces birthday party. I probably could have gone but I was still mad at him. hehe!
January 22, 2011 was the Pine View Invitational and I was asked to come back and help take stats. It was a two day tournament. The first day I didn't really see Trevor, but I did see him leave with the girl he liked. The next day after I was done taking stats I was standing there super awkwardly because most of my friends were gone and I didn't really have anyone to talk to. Trevor came and nudged me and told me to come sit by him and his mom so I did and he sat on the floor while I sat on the bleachers. He then leaned his head onto my knee and my heart started fluttering! (Cheesaaay) Then it was time for him to wrestle and for some reason I had to keep him in my eye sight while he was warming up! What is going on with me!? He ended up losing and biting his tongue pretty bad. Poor guy! I was standing there awkwardly again after he was done and he walked right past me and sat by his friends. Right then I decided that it was dumb to like him and completely gave up. I walked upstairs..more like moped upstairs when I decided to check my phone. I had two missed calls from Trevor and a text asking where I was. There's that spark again! I called him and told him I was leaving but he begged me to stay. I guess he didn't see me when he walked passed me.
I hung out with him and his friends for the rest of the tournament. They all kept talking about going to Wendy's and I felt awkward because I was never really invited but Trevor just assumed I was going. It ended up being just me, Trevor, and our friend Garrett. We had so much fun and we talked for a couple hours. Trevor wanted to hang out more so I invited them to watch a movie at my house. I remember Trevor and I asked Garrett if he wanted to come and he just looked back and forth at us and smirked and said "No thanks". haha! I remember sitting there next to Trevor and I just wanted to wrap my arms around him and give him a kiss! That is NOT normal for me. I don't usually think like that but it just seemed like that was the normal thing to do! Don't worry I didn't.
We went to my house and Luke joined us in watching a movie. Trevor and I were texting each other the whole time. I told him I liked him and he told me he liked me too.. and another girl. Wait this sounds familiar? He ended up holding my hand and cuddling with me. I was so confused! The next day was a Sunday and we texted all day. We wanted to hang out so we went to the St. George Temple and walked around. We were trying to see what a sign said across the street and we couldn't read it so we ran across the street and held hands "for safety"! hah!! We kept holding hands for the rest of our stroll around temple square.
I felt bad because of the girl he liked.. I didn't know what to do! The next day he texted me and told me that he broke things off with the other girl. Okay I kind of look like a home wrecker here but seriously I felt soooooooo incredibly bad. I actually got mad at Trevor for doing that. He assured me that he was wanting to do for awhile and that I just pushed it over the edge.. ah I still felt so bad though. But from then on we never stopped talking!
A week later was region and he invited me to go so my friend and I went there to support him. He won! Yay! A group of us went to Wendy's after (I feel like I'm talking about Wendy's a lot here..) and he asked for a hug and I got embarrassed in front of our friends and wouldn't give him one. I know. Heartless. So he was pretty mad at me all night. He ended up forgiving me and I dropped him home and we sat outside my car and talked for awhile. We sat there and hugged each other and then he looked down at me and gave me a kiss! I was so happy! He then proceeded to kiss me twice more. I was super giddy but I felt so weird because he was still in high school. The next day we went on a date with our friends and he kissed me again! He actually asked me to be his girlfriend but I just wasn't ready. We didn't become official for another month actually!
To be honest.. I didn't think things would last that long, but I slowly became in love with him. So in love I knew I wanted to marry him! He went to SUU for a semester that fall and saying goodbye was the hardest thing ever! I knew he would be only 45 minutes away but being with him every day to maybe on the weekends was going to be so tough! We endured it and he ended up coming back down. Once we hit the one year mark we actually almost broke up. He then realized he wanted to be with me and proposed to me on March 12, 2012 at California Adventures on the Tower of Terror!
He asked me to go to California with him and some friends and I told him if I go I will NOT go on the Tower of Terror and he agreed. So we get there and our friends say they want to go on that ride and so I assume Trevor will say.. "Oh no..we'll sit this one out.." Oh no. He begged me to go on it and our friends kept saying that it would "change my life" so I decided I would go and I seriously almost backed out. I was so nervous! Little did I know he was extremely nervous as well! I went on that ride and I LOVED it! I was laughing and having such a good time! I went to look at the picture and I laughed looking how ridiculous I looked and I turned around to show Trevor and I couldn't see him and all I could see were my friends with their phones pointed at me. I then see Trevor on one knee in front of me holding the box with my ring in and he is asking me to marry him! Of course I said yes! I was soooo shocked! I had no idea! In the picture he was holding the box with the ring in it! So adorable!
A year later on March 12, 2013 we were married! It was the best day of my life! It went by in a blur but I loved every minute of it! Trevor was so handsome and he was now my husband. We had been through so much to get to this point. I was finally Mrs. Thompson! 5 months later we got pregnant with our beautiful baby Emma! Then on May 2, 2014 we were sealed at the place where we held hands all those years ago at the St. George Temple. We were sealed for all time and eternity! Such an amazing day even though I was 9 months pregnant! Then on May 23, 2014 we had Emma! It's so crazy to look back at how far we have come and all the things we have been through together. Trevor is my rock. I love him so much and he such a great husband and father. I could not have chosen a better man for me to marry. He is one of the most generous and kind-hearted men I know! I'm grateful for the experiences I've had with him and will continue to have with him. I just love our simple love story!
