6 months and Valentinesday

Normally I try not to go on and on about the lovey dovey mushy stuff but I think there are a few exceptions this being one of them.
Brad and I made plans to go to Ogden to see one of my friends and to visit my cousins who I was missing alot. After school we hit the road. When we were just past Lagoon we found out that my friend would not be home afterall...kinda sad because we havent seen eachother since before Brad and I got engaged and I was supossed to get a box of movies back for my brothers. Of course I still wanted to see my cousins because we hadnt seen then since the wedding so we continued on. I have the cutest cousins and they were so excited when we made it to their house. We all went out for frozen yogurt and did a whole lot of laughing :-)
Brad said that since we still had a lot of time before the Jazz game he wanted to take me shopping at the Gateway. Like I'm going to turn down shopping! While we were there I turned the tables and convinced Brad to get new shoes for himself. I know I love shoes but really I don't need more and he has been wanting new DC's for a long time.

After when we were heading to the Jazz game brad pulled into the Little America :-) One of the places we went during our honeymoon. He had a room for us. Then when were unloading our bags that Brad had packed, my mom called. I know he was trying to make it so I couldnt hear but I know her voice very well.
I bugged him until he told me we were meeting them at the ticket office. This was the Jazz's first home game since Jerry left so I was excited we would be meeting them.
We headed over and as we were about to pass Ruths Chris I said "we need to take my parents there like we promised." Seriously as soon as I had finished my sentence we passed through the light and Brad turned in haha what a sneaky buggar.
My parents were already there waiting to have dinner with us.I love spending time with them so it was the perfect touch. It was such a nice evening and I was even able to feed my crème brule love!


We had breakfast and the most delicous hot chocolate the next morning at the hotel. It was such a sweet surprise expecially coming from my cute husband who has a very difficult time keeping surpirses.

Don't worry I had planned a 6 month/Valentinesday surprise for him as well. Since he lost his wedding ring at Thanksgiving when we were sledding I knew I wanted him to have another. But he insisted on getting it himself this time around...well I waited    and waited    and waited. Then I decided if it was a gift he couldnt say no :-) I wanted it to be more than just -here's a new ring!- so this is what I did.

I made these cute fortune cookies from flower wire, felt and ribbon. Then I put little slips in each one of them. The slips were all fun little coupons. I made one fortune cookie a little bigger and put tiny pink hearts on it and that was the one with the ring inside.

So there you have it. The 6 months and Valentineday lovey dovey mushy-ness.
