And to this day Joel will still buy me a jamba juice. Love him! :)

the way she looks at him and the way he talks about her. goals. you're a very lucky woman to be blessed with an amazing man. they're rare these days

But seriously, though... how stinkin' cute is Joel?!?!?! Bonnie, you are one lucky, lucky woman. That boy was just smitten with you from the start and his persistence paid off. Look at the beautiful family y'all have become!! Such a beautiful love story... thanks for sharing it with us all. You guys make my day, whenever you share a video, it always makes me smile

You should do a video on how Joel proposed to you! ❤️💍

Oh my word. That was possibly the most ridiculously cute love story! That's one of those movie kind of romances. In an out of touch for 5 years, then finally, FINALLY, someone makes a move. Ugh. You made my heart hurt with all the love. ;) You guys are too fricken cute!

(Long story, short) Met my hubby in 7th grade...have been together since 9th grade. 11 years this coming Oct and welcoming our first baby (a boy) in May!!! ❤️💙

Do I think Joel is cute? Girl, I think Joel is precious and so are you. You and your little family are absolutely adorable!

Ohh my gosh! You two are so meant to be, this is the kind of the love story that should be made into a movie. You're an amazing couple and it's beautiful to see where you're at in life together now and the beautiful family you've made. If love could "look" like anything, you're it!😊❤

I read some of the comments and I also found this channel after watching "operated on the wrong body part", and I'm so glad I did! All of your kids are so beautiful! And you two are so cute! And when I saw this video pop up in the recommended videos... I got so excited! There is so much love I see in your eyes when you look at Joel and also vise versa! Thank you for brining everyone along on your journey through this channel! And allowing us to see a glimpse of your family life! We really appreciate it! 💕 can't wait for more videos!☺️

i honestly been waiting for this ... so excited ... i have not yet watch the video and here i am writing a comment ... and just hit the like button ... a big YESSSSS !!!

We met in college. Robert was playing a guitar and I walked up and asked him if he knew any Mumford and sons. He didn't. A few days later he tracked me down and played Little Lion man for me. He had learned a song for me. we got married a year later and three years after that we got pregnant after battling PCOS. We nicknamed our unborn baby Little Lion. When we started vlogging we chose to call our channel Little Lion Family. It's been our theme sort of lol.

I LITERALLY love this! please do more stories about you and joel with the both of you!! I love hearing them and they make me smile SO much!! love from Ireland!

His winks tickle me. You two are an adorable couple. I met my husband after my sister went on a date with him. It was a month after I turned 15 and we have been together since. This past Jan. 20th we it our 25th wedding anniversary. I can't belive my son is 23. I am so thankful for all the family vlogs. It has helped me so much not to have mom blues. I get all the fun without the diapers and crummy stuff. :-)

The way you look at each other... Omg it's the cutest thing in the hole world 😍❤️🙌

I told Joel in his first 6 weeks of his mission that Bonnie wouldn't wait, boy was I wrong!

What a beautiful story. I love the old pictures. And little Ellie! Lol so cute!

My husband and I have been together since 3rd grade.. :) Your story is so sweet!!

Is it a common thing among Mormons to get married very soon after the engagement or is it a coincidence that the Hoellein and the Mechams did so?

The way they look at each other when the other one talks 😍 Seriously, you both are so so lucky to have each other! The perfect match!

This literally sounds like a movie. So beautiful you guys!

Joel is dreamy (:

Bonnie, sound like Ellie =)

out of all the how we met videos I've watched, this has been the best by far. great video.

I just love how she look at him while he's talking even if he's not looking back at her 😍😍😍

This is one of the cutest stories I've ever seen! I love the way he so obviously adores you!

I think Joel is such a sweetheart. Bonnie, you are a lucky woman. I love your story.

So so cute! Love your story! One that your children and grandchildren will be glad is recorded for all time now!

Joel's wink at the end of your videos always makes me laugh! Thanks for sharing your story!

I have been dying for this video! Thanks for sharing. The part about hating that teacher was so funny!

Oh Bonnie this video has me crying over and over again. Joel derserves 1000 thumbs up if I could give it, he is such a good good man! I am so happy for you to have found such an amazing man! Thank you so much for sharing, it is always encouraging to hear other peoples stories

Bonnie!! This is magical. You should do a wedding video. How you planned it, perspectives from you and joel!!

I haven't watched but 9 seconds of this video and I'm already SOOOOOO pumped to watch this Bonnie!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for doing this video.

Joel and Bonnie you two are my heroes! You two are super sweet and so beautifully inlove! This is how I imagine love and happiness to be!? Thank you two for giving me and the like hope for love!

Awwe what a cute storyThanks for sharing it.I love hearing how people meet and fall in love.Now we need to hear about your wedding!

I just came across Ellie and Jared about a week ago and since then 'found' you two. I'm in Canada and have come to really enjoy E+J, you two, your siblings, folks, etc. You are such a positive, upbeat person, Bonnie. I have enjoyed learning about you and your family. Joel is a treasure of a guy and together you two have built a lovely family. Thanks for sharing your story and lives with us. I really enjoy picking through the videos (some day I'll be up to date, but remember, I have E+J's to catch up on too, haha)! I'm a single mom of a busy 15 year old daughter and am recently disabled with a spinal injury. I spend a lot of time alone lying down. It has been a real joy to find your sister's and your videos. Thanks again and I wish you all, all the best... always! :)

Such a wonderful story!!! I wish more people these days to be so true, lovely, honest, faithful and to share so much happiness and love as you do! Love from London

Found Bonnie through her sister's Elle's channel and so glad! She is one of those that lights up the room and Joel is adorable. LOVE this eye look btw!

I'm so in love with the whole family. the WHOLE family. i came from such an unstable childhood and it's so nice to see the live structure and family values you all share and have. i truly base what I want out of my life and for my family off of what you guys have. God bless you!
