Happy Valentines Day!

Should be reclaiming the house after our hairy week, but I'm taking a minute to spread the love instead! Hope you have a great Valentines Day!

Lastly, I found this cool site. It lets you make your own storybook--and it has all sorts of formats you can save it in. One day I'll spring for the actual printed book, but for now, I printed it out myself and made it pocket sized for Mike's desk at work. And since I'm betting he won't look at this tonight, here's a link for you to read it too! (I tried to attach it here, but can't figure it out for some reason. The book is cute though! I'd hit that link!)

Storybird: You'll forever be my always

8 years ago, today...

This day, 8 years ago, Mike and I went on our first date--one that I had to ask him out on! We went on a Halloween cruise down the Provo river, he taught me how to boil chicken. He stole my heart with his cozy blue sweater and his humble, 'I work with the Elders Quorum.'  He broke the touch barrier in a 'non-sleezy way' and was tall and funny. 

I was the best blind date he had ever been on, 'and the most beautiful' and never dated anybody else after that momentous day!  I waited the appropriate 36 hours before a 'hello' text message and he asked me out for a repeat performance just in time. We talked on the phone and went on dates--it was a no-nonsense, no games relationship and I was smitten! So glad I convinced him to marry me! ;)

(Not our first date, but could have been...we may even be wearing the same thing as we did on that night!)
