Japan

On may 20th I got a phone call at 4:00am saying I'm moving to Japan on the 21st. Being halfway asleep I thought he was joking. After him asking for passport stuff, I ran upstairs to tell me parents I leave tomorrow. I packed a little then went back to sleep. On may 21st we drove down to Vegas to have them tell me I missed my flight, and will be flying out on Wednesday. So we turned around and went home, and I went and saw Hayden's family one last time. On Wednesday I got on a plane and landed in L.A. And got on my big plane to Japan. A 11 hour flight is HORRIBLE! You can sleep cause there is so many people and so much noise, the food is so nasty, it made me sick and throw up. You can never get to use the bathroom because there is always a line to it. Once I landed in Japan I had to get my stuff and pay 3,000 yens to ride the bus 1 1/2 hours to the other airport where I couldn't get my ticket because I missed the flight the day before. Not knowing any Japanese makes it really hard to talk to people. They told me to come back the next morning to get my ticket. I went to go see if there was a room in the hotel at the airport and there wasn't any. Thinking I could just hang out at the airport (like you can at normal airports) I got myself comfy at a 11 pm the guard came and told me I couldn't stay there, trying to explain I had no where to go and had no communication with my husband he gave me some yen to take the bus back to the other airport so I could sleep there, and come back to this one for my flight. Of course by the time I got there all the seats are taken so I find a wall and lay down on the floor with my stuff and try to sleep, but I couldn't. After a very very long 6 hours I was able to go back and catch my flight to land in Misawa and finally see Hayden.

Food from my flight! 🔽

On Monday I went out to Missouri to see Hayden. I left saint george at 5 am and didn't get to the hotel till 10 pm. For the most part I just sit in the hotel till 5 pm then take a taxi to pick up Hayden to see him for 5 hours. But today we did all my paper work, and we found out the dates. He leaves Sunday may 12, to Misawa Japan, and said there are no flights left for me to leave on the 12. So I leave for Japan on June 13, 2013! 

Wedding day. (:

Air Force life.

Hayden signed for the Air Force during the summer, and honestly I was so mad at him for doing it. He ended up leaving December 18, 2012. We dropped him off  at the airport, said our goodbyes and went our different ways. It wasn't until Christmas when my phone rang and his number popped up. Thinking it was a mean joke I answered and instantly started crying when I heard his voice. We talked for about 30 minutes, best Christmas gift i got. After that we wrote letters, and he would call on Friday or Saturday and would get 10 minutes to make phone calls. He would call me first and talking to me, sometimes we would go over our 5 minutes and take away from his family phone call. Which was always okay by me because I missed him and wanted to talk to him. On February 12, 2013 me and the Kroff gang went out to Lackland Texas, to watch Hayden graduate boot camp and watching him become an Airman of the United States of America! We got to spend 3 AMAZING days with our Airman. It's so cool to walking around with him in uniform and see all the people thank him and the little kids talking about that soldier. After our 3 days with him, he was sent to Fort Leonard  wood, Missouri to start tech school. At the beginning of March we found out that he is being stationed to Misawa, Japan. So on March 8th, my phone ranging saying Hayden wanted to FaceTime. He was talking to me, then got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. I said yes! Of course! We set the date for April 20, 2013. That's only 6 weeks to plan a wedding, but it should be fine because Hayden should be back on April 6, 2013. Jokes on us! He did not get here until April 16.  3 days before the wedding. We had a beautiful temple wedding, with my man in his Air force blues, and with a very pink and sparkly reception. It was perfect. Hayden went back to Missouri that Monday, being told he would come back Sunday. Sunday comes around and he isn't home. We found out that they couldn't send him home until my medical record was approved by Japan they were worried about me going because I have Raynauds. (Raynaud's phenomenon: Raynaud’s phenomenon is a condition in which cold temperatures or strong emotions cause blood vessel spasms that block blood flow to the fingers, toes, ears, and nose.) they though it would make problems for me going to a place that gets super cold. We  just found out (May, 3,2013) that I have been approved, and I'm going to Japan after Hayden gets out there! 

Our meet-cute

Our meet-cute

Well it all started a few years ago..... My best friend Steven left during the summer to go to a boys scout jamboree, one night he was texting me telling me all about the stupid stuff they were doing. I replayed by calling them idiots. Shortly after I sent that I got a VERY rude text from some punk kid named Hayden. I most likely feed into the rude messages upsetting him more then just stopped talking to him. The next morning I woke up to a message from this same kid saying sorry for being rude. After that we just kept talking. He became my texting buddy, bored in class and wanted someone to talk to just text Hayden. We sent messages to each other for about 6 months until New Years  night when I called  and talked to him on the phone. He just talked and gave me the image of him being a punk, white trash type of kid. But we continued to keep talking, until one day when me and Taylor were ditching class and trying on prom dresses because Jr. Prom was coming up and we wanted to go. So we are at debs trying in dresses and I'm texting Hayden telling what we are doing and he happened to be ditching school and in St.G and at the mall. So I told him to come meet us. (Hello I have been texting this kid for 6 months never meet him, I had this super big punk image of him. I want to see him!)  So here we are in the changing room and I get the text we are here so we go out and there are these 2 kids standing there waiting for us. And in my mind I was like "oh crap, what did I do! They are nerdy looking! Nothing like the pictures. I was so mad," They stared talking to us and told me that Hayden was outside the store. So they went out and me and Taylor walked slowly behind them. And there he was, tall, blonde, blue eyed boy in Hollister jeans with a Hurricane tiger shirt on. The little jerk sent his friends in to see if I was ugly! After that day we hung out every weekend. And started dating January 21,2010. For about a year and half his family always referred to me as "Hayden's friend" but after awhile they called his girlfriend. We went to a long of school dancing being from 2 different high schools and only having high school budgets we only saw each other on weekends. We had our break ups and make ups. Until his Sr year of high school, he was becoming the rude person he started out to be and not really wanted to be "tied" down. During his Sr. trip he got left from the cruise boat because someone lost his paper work so the school LEFT him in Cali by himself at the port of entry. Awesome I know. He ended up getting on the boat but we broke up after that for a month, then got back together for a month and he signed up for the Air force, then he dumped me again. I swear on my life I though it was the end. He had a new girlfriend by the end of the first week. I was heart broken, but got over it and was hanging out with friends and having fun. Then after almost 2 months of not talking to him deleting everything of him, his number popped up on my phone, asking if he can get me a birthday gift. And all I said was " I don't want your pity gift." A few days later he texted me again and asked if we could talk. I said yes, cause I really wanted to know why he dumped me. We talked and hung out for the first time in 2 months on Halloween. We ended up getting back together. And have been together since. He left for the Air Force on December 18, 2013 going a whole week with out talking to him my phone starts ringing on Christmas Day and its his name on my phone thinking this was a horrible joke I answered it, and it was Hayden. I have never been so happy to hear someone's voice before. It was the best Christmas gift I got this year.
