She is so lucky and I'm so jealous, I love how generous and loving he is, he's so understanding. Really hard to find someone like that, nowadays. I can't even get my boyfriend to say 'thank you'.

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

(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!!! ❤️💙

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!

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

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!😊❤

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

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.

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

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 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!

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

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?

Oh I just love you guys - you make my heart happy!!!! I met my hubby when I was 17 and I just knew from the moment we kissed that he was the one. So 6.5 years of marriage, 2 kids, a house and a dog; I now enter my 30's a very happy and content woman. Big big hugs from Melbourne, Australia xx

Elizabeth Hoath Thats so lovely!! From another Australian Melbournite:)

I just finished watching your video of how you met. My goodness what a wonderful love story., made me get teary eyed.. I love both of you kids so much and I can call you kids because I am an 84 year old great grand mother" I just very well might be your oldest fan. I keep up with you and your precious little family every time I get a notice of a new video. I would love to tell you all about my wonderful family but there is not enough room, I have 9 children, 24 grandchildren and ( don't faint ! ). 48 great- grandchildren.. Hope you love my post today. Love you ! 😊

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

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

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

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! :)

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 is such an awesome man! Not many guys would remember such detail as he does.

the picture at 12:31 i screamed out loud! SO CUTE GOALS GOALs! joels hair!!

Bonnie, Joel is a real gentleman! You are both blessed

all the y’all have the cutest love stories. i’ve watched them all before but i’m hoping in 2018 i can open my heart more to meeting someone so i watched ellie and jared’s video about how they met and now i’m watching all of the sisters and literally every single one of you guys have the most precious stories.

What a sweet story! My parents met when they were 11 years old and never dated anyone else. Next year they celebrate 50 years of marriage.

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

these two are goals and a half. i have been subscribed to Bonnie for a while and I found you through Ellie and Jared who I found through Missy lanning. and all because I got pregnant and started watching pregnancy bump dates. 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!

literally, so cute. it's like one of those stories like Corey and Topenga

Love coming from the Caribbean. Bonnie you are beautiful. Joel is beautifully cute. The kids are adorable. Love u Bonnie

I would absolutely love if you made more videos about your story together. You two are an honest, sweet, and admirable couple and I love watching your videos each week.

Bonnie & Joel I smiled thru this whole video!!! Maybe a few tears too! Lol. I loved y'all's story!!! Bonnie's parents should be extremely proud because I think Joel & Jared are AWESOME!!! And yes, I love Jake too Joel!!! 😉

I love this story! You two were honest to God meant for each other. All those obstacles, all the chances it could of changed and you guys always came back. I am so glad you shared your story!

Oh, my gosh! You guys are the cutest pair! So nice to see a genuinely happy couple. You raise beautifully mannered kids and I'll bet your parents had a huge influence on how you parent now.

Your story should be made into a movie, seriously!! I love it. You guys are the sweetest

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

I started watching after "operated on the wrong body part" and haven't been able to stop! Finally watched this video and I'm subscribed. Your story is like a fairytale ❤️

Love this! My husband & I started "dating" (going to our schools basketball games) when we were 15! Now we're both almost 21 & married. He's in the military so we have moved from Indiana to Alaska! Love our life as husband & wife! 😍😉❤️

Bonnie! Omg. I'm just sitting here in tears. SO CUTE.

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

You guys are sooo freakn cute!! XOXO

The two of you together just fit. Bonnie, if only you knew how many women adore Joel, omg.... It's a good thing we love you and the family the two of you created. He is a catch!

Ugh! Seriously adorable. My husband and I met when we were 14 so theres always a special place in my heart for stories like yours

You two are just darling! It is so so sweet how in love Joel is with you!! Obviously you're both in love. But I think it's so endearing how much love he has for you! ❤️❤️❤️

You guys have such great compatibility. I can tell just by the way you tell stories together. You 2 are lucky and blessed to have found each other. I hope to have something this beautiful in the future

thank you for 18 minutes of an ear to ear smile, what a cute story, Joel is such a keeper x

Bonnieeeee you had me in tears. How precious is that story. Just adorable. What a wonderful testimony for Olivia.

Loved your story,thank you for sharing! Love the name Jake! And I giggle everytime Joel says I had a really nice time!

Such a beautiful story.. brings back many memories from the 9+ years that we lived in St. George. I get pretty homesick now and then. I am not LDS but all of my friends (and my son's as well) were members of the Church. I raised my son from age 11-19 there :) Continued happy wishes to your whole family!

How sweet! I love hearing stories like yours. My husband and I started dating in 5th grade and now have been married for 5 years with 2 kids.

I love your story!!! You and Joel are one of THEE cutest couples!!! My husband and I will be married 8 years in May! We have been together for 11, and just had our third child, our son Hudson, this past January!! I love our story and would relive my lifetime over and over!!!! So glad to see so much love in your home!!! And you to have some of thee cutest kids EVER!!!! Baby boy is going to be adorable, I am sure!!!

Way to stick with it her Joel... 👍 Congratulations on your 4th child, so exciting!

This actually brought tears to my eyes...I love your story, you make the perfect couple. You have a beautiful family!

Oh my goodness, Bonnie. I loved this. By far my favorite video. I smiled the entire time. You have a great story and you can just tell that you two were put on this earth to be together!

Such a sweet love story. That's the way it's meant to be! Yes, Joel is adorable and so are you, Bonnie; and your beautiful Olivia, Cody, Boston and Lincoln! God bless your family🙏❤️

I LOVE your guys' story!!! So sweet, so innocent and so happy! Love you guys!

I loved hearing this fun story! You two are so blessed to have each other! I can't think of a better way to have a reason to get married in 2 months. You two are so cute together and Joel seems smitten with you still. They way he looks at you is like he is a junior high student all over again, wanting you:.. It's adorable!
