Valentines, scooter, and fabric!

So I guess I have a few things to blog about...First, Valentines! This year we celebrated on the 13th because we really wanted to try The Roof restaurant (the buffet at the top of the Joseph Smith Buildling)but they were all booked for valentines day, so we decided to go on Friday instead. It was pretty fun...Luke and I both got super stuffed and the food was really good. I don't know if we would ever go again, because it is a little pricey, but it was really fun to go once! By far, the best part was the view, it's so beautiful! On Saturday we hung out with Luke's sister Laurel and then went over to Tori and Sean's house that night and made yummy navajo tacos!

So the last couple of weeks we have had really nice weather here, and we are all loving it! Every morning Luke drives to school and has to leave pretty early because he has to park really far away and then walk to his building, and everyday he would see all the scooters and bikes parked right next to the building and it always made him so jealous! He has been wanting a scooter for awhile, but we decided that we should wait to get one until after the summer so we wouldn't have to worry about storing it and all that stuff while we are gone. Well...the nice weather has made it so there are people on scooters and bikes EVERYWHERE in Provo and Luke has given in to the pressure...he found a really good deal on a scooter on craigslist and we went and saw it and bought it last weekend! Luke loves it! We had to go out to Eagle Mountain to get it, which is by Tori and Sean's house, so we stopped and said hi to them too. Sean gave Luke some pretty snazzy gloggles to wear for the ride home so that his eyes wouldn't get all dried out.


For my graduation, my parents got me a sewing machine! With moving and everything it has taken me awhile to get it out and use it, but I am doing my first project right now. I am making pillows for my couches! My sister Jordan is super good at sewing and being creative, so I have called her a lot to help me know how much fabric to buy, where to buy it, how to make the pillow covers, and etc. Now that I have fabric, I want her to see it so I decided to post it, even though I have only made one pillow cover so far! It took me a little while to find fabric that I really liked, but here it is! I will post a picture when they are all done (which will hopefully be soon).

Luke's Birthday

So, last Saturday was Luke's Birthday! We had a lot of fun and it was great for Luke to take a break from school all day. First, I made him breakfast and then we went and saw the movie Taken. We both really liked it, however, I am now very freaked out about traveling anywhere outside of the United States without my husband, dad, brother, or some guy to protect me. After that we went to dinner at Ruby River steakhouse. Luke loves steak and we had never been there, so we figured it was worth a try. It was alright, but overall neither of us were that impressed.



For his birthday, he got the game Ticket to Ride, a Playstation 3 game that I swear he said he wanted, but apparently had no interest in (so we will return it), and a remote control for the Playstation 3 for when we watch movies. He also got new workout clothes and sweats from my parents, which we both love because he used to always steal my big, comfy sweatpants and I hated it!



I'm glad we got to spend a day just for him! He is such an awesome husband and I don't think I tell him that enough! Especially lately, I have been really irritable and he is just always so nice and funny, and can always put a smile on my face! That's why I love him:)
