February

February was a fun month. I was able to go to a chocolate making demonstration with my friend Christie. It was fun, but it made me miss my Grandma! She has been gone 5 months now.. Crazy! I do need to pull out my Grandma's recipe sometime and make chocolate, especially the peanut butter ones!

On Valentines I had to work during the day and when I got home I can home to nice surprise. Shaun had got me beautiful roses and chocolate covered strawberries! It was such a nice surprise! The night we went out and had yummy sushi and some frozen custard! It was a fun evening out!

So pretty!

We were able to go on our first bike ride of the year! It was nice to get out.. It was windy though so the ride home wasn't very funny because of the strong head wind. Good work out though:

On the 18th, Shaun and I went and spent the evening with a bunch of Girl Scouts. One of our ward members is over Girls Scouts in our area and they were having a big get together and we were asked to help out with the live action Clue game they were playing. It was a lot of fun. I played the role of Miss Smooch and Shaun was Hermie "The Worm". It was fun being able to interact with the girls.

That same weekend Shaun and I got to babysit my parents dogs, Huge and Peanut. All the dogs did pretty well together. The boys normally sleep in my parents bed and so we decide to let Zoey sleep in our bed to so we wouldn't have any problems. Our bed definitely isn't big enough for 3 dogs... especially since they all cuddled up to me both nights. We also decided that Zoey sleeps much better in her crate. Peanut has become protective of Zoey. It is pretty cute.

On the 27th Shaun and I, along with our friends Christie and Matt, headed up to Hardware Ranch. We left later than we should have and by the time we got there we were like 6 minutes after the deadline to get tickets for the sleigh ride. It ended up being okay though, because it was REALLY cold up there! After we were done checking out the elk we headed into Logan and went to the Gossner Cheese Factory for some yummy cheese curds. Our next stop was the temple. We were there for all of like 5 minutes before we decided it was too cold to spend much time outside. When then headed to Maddox in Brigham City for a yummy dinner.

Our Second Anniversary!

I honestly can't believe how quickly time has gone by. The past two years have gone by so quickly, but I have enjoyed every moment. I am so glad that I found Shaun and that everything worked out between us! I love him SO much!! He is the best thing that has happened to me. I look forward to being able to spend the rest of my life with him!

For our anniversary, Shaun and I spent the weekend in Logan. It was a lot of fun. We drove up friday night and went to Maddox in Brigham City for dinner. Once we got to Logan and checked into our hotel, we went and saw Despicable Me. It was a really cute show.

Saturday we woke up and started our journey to Bear Lake. Along the way we stopped at the Gossner's cheese factory to get cheese curds (YUMMY!) and then we also made a stop at the Pepperidge Farms factory, but didn't pick anything up there. Then we drove up through Idaho a little bit.

Our next stop was the Minnetonka Cave. We got really lucky and were able to get into a group that we leaving within 15 minutes of us getting there. (The wait when we got there was almost two hours.) Minnetonka Cave is 444 steps in and the same 44 steps out. The tour take approximately 90 minutes. Shaun and I were able to stay at the front of the group the whole tour, something I am very proud of.

Once we were done at the cave we headed to LeBeau's for a yummy lunch and then back to Logan. On the way to back we stopped at the overlook and took some pictures. Once back at our hotel we took a nap, which ended up being way longer than we had planned, but it felt SO nice!!! We then head to dinner and then to Wal-Mart, where we picked up Uno cards. The rest of our evening was spent playing Uno on our bed. It was TONS of fun!

Sunday, we went and took pictures around the Logan Temple and then started home. As we were going through Brigham City we drove by were the new temple is going to be built. I can't wait to go to the open house (yes I do realize it is going to be a long while before that will happen).

It was a really nice weekend away with just the two of us. I love getting to spend time with Shaun without all the distractions we find at home!

Thanks again babe for a wonderful two years of marriage! I look forward to many many more!
