Trevor and I celebrated our THIRD Valentine's day together this year! :) It started for me the night before, when I waited for Trevor to get tired and announce "I'm going to bed". This usually occurs around midnight or a bit sooner, and fortunately, this night was no different. So, he stumbled off to bed and I broke out the goodies! :) I set them all up on our kitchen table so he would find them when he woke up at the crack of dawn to play basketball with Randy.
I got him a cute balloon, lots of chocolate, a Valentine's mug (because I broke the only mug we had for hot chocolate), a greeting card, a $20 Subway gift card, and a homemade card full of 50 reasons why I love him! I could have thought of more... but the card would only fit 50. Should have made the card bigger :)After playing basketball and working out, Trevor swung by the flower shop and got me a gorgeous vase full of purple-pink roses accompanied by a sweet note! So gorgeous! He also came home with a ton of balloons and a yoga mat in support of my new hobby! YAY! You can kind of see the yoga mat hiding underneath the ironing board. I made him take another doorway shot (almost identical to the other one) before we went out for dinner in Park City. We were nervous about making it there because at the time we were planning to leave, it was blizzarding in Provo. But, fortunately, by the time we got into the canyon, the snowing slowed and in Park City the skies were completely clear. We got there a bit early so we looked around in the little indoor mall, where we discovered a really cool shop full of amazing rocks, fossils, and dinosaur bones. Both of us were in heaven, and we discovered we both love rocks and used to collect them as kids. It made me pretty happy that he shares this silly interest with me! When we told our friends about it, they just looked at us like we were crazy. I guess they aren't huge rock fans :)
We ate at a French/American restaurant named Bistro 412 on Main Street in Park City. We both ate the Bison Ribeye and it was pretty delicious! After our 5:30 dinner reservation (yes, we are old fogies now!) we made our way back to the car to drive home. Back in Provo, we spent a relaxing night watching TV until we retired to bed. It was wonderful to spend an entire day with my husband and to remember the reasons why we love each other. :)
And I had to throw this in as a fun little memory--a picture of our first Valentine's day together, right after we started dating in 2007. We went to a restaurant in Park City off Main Street that year, and the next year. I guess we're making it a tradition--and so far, it's been a very delicious one! This picture was back when Trevor didn't mind matching his clothes to mine! :) HahaHappy Valentine's Day everybody! I hope you had a wonderful day, whether you are single, dating, or married! I hope to try to remember the love I have for everyone I love as the year goes on, so I can celebrate that love all year round--not just one day! :)
Love you all!

You guys are too cute! :)
ReplyDeleteYou are CUTE! Of course I remember you from Glenwood, and I think I saw you at the temple last semester too. That's so crazy that you know Jack! We love him. I'm so excited for the wedding. I'm glad you clarified that it wasn't Jenny's blog where you found me because I definitely don't know her, and I was slightly concerned that I was on her blog roll. I do know Lauren though! She is one of my favorites. How fun. Well it looks like I'll see you at the wedding then, if not before:) Thanks for telling me!
ReplyDeleteAlso, did you know that my sister Vanessa married Matt Johnston from Glenwood? Maybe you already knew that, but in case you didn't, they're married:)
I am so glad that I waited until reading this. I've been planning on getting you a yoga mat, and last time I was in Walmart I almost picked it up. But for some reason I've had a feeling for the longest time that Trevor probably would give you one for Valentine's day, so I waited. I'm glad that you got one!
ReplyDeleteI hope when I get married, my wife likes to blog as much as Alex :]
