Valentine's Weekend



Our weekend was crazy busy. It started off Thursday when I got Roses in the mail from Todd, such a huge surprise! Many of you know my husband hates to spend money and I think everytime I've received flowers they've been random bouquets that were days old and on clearance at the grocery store, not that I don't love getting those too but it just made this bouquet that much better. Unfortunately by the time I went to take a picture of them Mia had already played he loves me loves me not with them, but take my word for it it was the prettiest bouquet I've ever seen! Thursday and Friday it was a baking frenzy around here, we made Lemon Almond Biscotti, sugar cookies, and a version of Becky's $250 cookies, I had no space in my kitchen that wasn't covered by cookies. Friday we walked some around to the neighbors and then the girls had a primary party that night. Bright and early on Vday we went to watch Todd play bball and then we went to Ikea in Maryland and stopped by the temple to buy new garments and walk through the visitors center. We saw quite a few couples from our ward there it was great. That night Todd made me Steak and mashed Potatoes just what I wanted.
Sunday was nice and relaxing which was good because Monday we headed into DC. Obviously bragging about our 70 degree weather was going to catch up to me sooner or later because it was 34 when we got there with a bitter wind. Needless to say we didn't take many pictures. My favorite part though would have to be when we went to the Natural History Museum and Boston saw the Grizzly Bear in the glass Case and took off running towards it yelling "BOOG BOOG"(the bear from open Season) and bounced his face so hard off the glass, if we would have had the video camera going we definitely would have had a $20,000 prize coming our way from AFHV.

This is for you Kels... these were the coolest if I could find away to get four carseats in there I would totally drive this around. I should have had Todd in the pic to make the van look even smaller.

It sounds like you guys had a ton of fun. I think the important thing about Valentines day is being together.

The car fleece is Maren's, and her mother-in-law made it, so I guess she got it either in Utah or Vegas.
