Valentine's Day!


We had such a wonderful Valentine's day! I had to run some errands for Primary early in the morning. So Spencer snuck out of the house to buy me some flowers and my favorite treats. When I came home everything seemed normal and I had no idea he had gone anywhere. That is until I walked into our room!!! He had set up the Dove Dark Chocolates all over the bed with the Red roses and a note. It was such a surprise and so sweet! I was really impressed with his presentation as well.


My gift to him was a little scrapbook book and a "conversation hearts" letter. My little sister Kara works at a scrapbooking store and has the most amazing skills when it comes to creativity. She offered to make me a book and I thought what a perfect V-day gift! It was a bunch of picture we've taken thus far in our marriage! It turned out great and Spencer LOVED it! As you can tell with all the pics he took. The letter was just a fun note I put together using conversation hearts. It was a lot of fun to make and Spencer laughed which was the main goal! :)


That night we went out to Ottavio's Italian restaurant, we got there at about 5:30 and the wait was only 35-40 minutes...well that turned into about an hour and a half! :( It was fine though, plenty of time to spend together! Dinner was delicious I got the Penne Pesto Pasta and Spencer ordered the Shrimp ravioli. He thought it would be ravioli filled with the shrimp however it was pretty shrimp less and tasted very....different. So we asked the waitress for a different entree and she was very accommodating. The chicken Pasta was a much better choice! Spencer loved it!


We then went to Blockbuster and rented some movies (chick flicks of course due to Valentines day!) Spencer's such a good sport! Truth is I fell asleep during the movie and he watched the whole thing! Maybe because he doesn't like to fall asleep to movies he hasn't seen. He's too curious and doesn't like to miss anything and well, sleep over rules my curiosity! Overall it was a great day! And I'm so blessed to have such an amazing Husband! :)

Date Night to Comedy Sportz!


We had a great date night the other night. My roommate Brittany who I lived with for about a year wanted to get together and we figured what better way to hang out than to set her up! :) So we set her up with Spencer's roommate Ben. It was a lot of fun! We went to a little Chinese restaurant in Orem for dinner where they gave us mounds of food! Spencer loves leftovers so it worked out great. Then it was off to Comedy Sportz which is always a lot of fun! Our stamps on our hands said "I'm cool!" We liked that! We had a lot of fun! Brittany's laugh is contagious and between Spencer, Ben and comedy sportz we were laughing all night!

Hanging with the Taylors

It has been a great two weeks hanging with the Taylor family! We had a fun birthday party for Spencer's Dad. We ate Sunday dinner with the family and then sang Happy Birthday, blew out the candles and opened gifts including a great looking tie! I wonder who that was from? :) We spent the rest of the night just chilling! There were about 5 different pictures of Jill (the dog) taken by Spencer so I had to include at least one, and truthfully Jill is part of the family! It was just a lot of fun hanging out with everyone!



Then Last week it was little David Oman's baby blessing. Spencer and I drove up to Tooele Saturday night and spent the night at the Oman's. It was a lot of fun. Anna made some AMAZING home made pizza we had some desserrt and then spent the rest of the night playing the infamous game "Settlers of Cattan." I'm happy to say that Spencer won! :) Good job babe!

Sunday morning was the blessing and it was beautiful. Little David had a full out white tux on and looked adorable! He's such a smiler too! We had a great lunch and enjoyed spending time with everyone again! It was a great week!
