I can't believe another week is almost over, it's crazy - almost a week since Valentine's Day! Well, last weekend was amazingly sweet. Every Valentine's Day growing up my mom and dad would get us a little gift or make a fancy dinner for us, or even surprise us with balloons and flowers at school - a tradition that is special to me. However, it's no replacement to having a special someone once you hit dating years. Last year was my first year to have that special someone in my life. Valentine's Day was a week before we got engaged and we were happy and giddy in love. This year, however, it means so much more because our relationship is so much deeper -I'm starting to understand more and more each day what love really is.
The weekend started off with an Olympics opening ceremonies party with my fam. We spent the night so we could wake up and celebrate a birthday breakfast with my sis Sam. Eighteen this year!! Can you believe it?? Then off to my Film Maker's Workshop I put together at work. Read more about it in the Salt Lake Tribune (they only mention my last name once, they must have put my first name and more info about me in the beginning but then took it out later....disappointing but whatev)
Valentine's weekend really got started that evening when we went out to dinner at Macaroni Grill and went to Comedy Sportz!! Oh man, i LOVE that place. SO funny and they keep it relatively clean. I love improv and went on YouTube one time to watch old clips of "Whose Line Is It Anyways" but there was SO much innuendo! I had forgotten and as a kid a lot of it goes over your head.
On Sunday we had our share of surprise flowers, cards, and heart attacks. That afternoon we got together with Christian's brother Richard, his girlfriend Amy, Sarah, and Wes Marriott and played some mean games of Boggle and the face-drawing game - one of my favorites. Then off to dinner club with more of my favorite people! I usually leave d-club drained from laughing so much. The weekend wasn't over yet. A beautiful three-day weekend (and paid holiday!) wrapped up Monday. The d-club boys decided to surprise the girls with a delicious and beautifully-decorated (thank you Christian) dinner back up at the Sundance cabin.
Whew! Another wonderful weekend. Christian and I were talking the other day about how good our lives really are. We have such good friends and family so close - we can't take it for granted.
Here are some pics of dinner and our beautiful drawings of each other :)
What cute pictures! They look just like you:) We really miss you guys.
ReplyDeleteSo cool! That's too bad they didn't put your name in it more. You'll have to tell me more what you did later! See you Sunday!
