in love with love

dont worry- we didn't touch!

A long valentine's weekend is just what the doctor ordered! Lover boy has finally finished his training at work, which means he will be back to regular working hours (he has been burning the night oil working until 10:30pm everyday for 3 weeks all while keeping up on his schoolwork, it was miserable for all parties)! With training over, we celebrated! Saturday was our love day.  We decided to celebrate Vday early with a fancy four course dinner, a dance concert (HE IS TOO GOOD TO ME!), dessert run #2 #sorrynotsorry and a late night movie snuggle sesh. It was a wonderful Valentines Day!

Sunday was full of more loving. Mike got me beautiful flowers and my favorite treat, and I got him a new "cape" aka a northface jacket that he practically lives in. We took it easy.. really easy because there was a three hour nap involved (obviously we work too hard) haha! After we wasted most of our day snoozing, we went up to Mike's family's house and spent Valentine's evening with them. We came home to have some mint hot cocoa and watch a chick flick.

On Monday Mikey woke up and hit the kitchen to make me a YUMMY breakfast.  Gluten free pancakes and berries. (Do you see how much he spoils me!?) And we hit the mountain for a lovely (icy) hike.  Monday night reality struck as we slaved away over our homework that we put off all weekend.


Story time- During our hike on Monday there was ice everywhere!  We were sliding all over the place. The hike was pretty steep so as we came down the mountain we mostly had to slide our way down.  At one point we got going pretty fast and I took a big fall, and I mean BIG.  Mike did not even utter a tiny laugh.  He was at my side checking on everything (while I laughed hysterically) he offered to carry me down the rest of the way- which would have been a sure recipe for disaster! Point is- I have a good one and my tailbone may never be the same ;).

Here is a view of Utah Valley. although the air has been pretty gross, I love the monochromatic moody grey we have been experiencing! 

I just loved every moment of being with my Mike.  I love the little moments when we are snuggling and I can just feel him breathing.  Or when we lock eyes and he whispers to me. Or when he is exhausted and gives me a massage.  He has a heart of gold. I am so grateful for him!  He fills my heart with love and gratitude each and every passing day.

**Over the weekend we got to babysit my little niece for just a little while- she is yummy!  We had too much fun playing with her!  We sure love this girl!


lots and loads of love,
