President's Day Weekend

Shad and I took work off last weekend and headed down to St. George with my parents and little brother Conner. Despite my trying to get over a two week long nasty cold, we had a really nice break.

We enjoyed 60 degree weather on Saturday by doing some walking and playing tennis (well Shad played, non athletic Conner and I just made very valiant attempts). Mom and dad came down and watched us for a while and dad decided we needed more Foreign sounding names to really be professional and renamed us Steedowski and Webbinofski. Later that day we also did some swimming and hung out with Breklyn, Christian, Mason, and Mia who were also on break in town. We all went to dinner at my parents favorite, Benja (which Shad usually hates but really enjoyed this time due to his recent discovery that he really likes sushi).

Sunday, Brek, mom, Mia and I got some passes to the home show and went and toured a few homes. They were so beautiful! (and crowded with TONS of other homes how goers). Seeing all the gorgeous redrock views made me want to pick up and move to St. George! Well, maybe in my next life I'll be a jumper and I can go any place I want in seconds (I can hear snickers from Shad in my head as he always likes to remind me I only get one life and there's no such thing as a jumper).

We're really thankful for my parents St. G condo and their willingness to share it with us! Having a little teaser of warm weather really makes me long for summer, it can't come soon enough!

V-day Surprise

Shad walked in from work on valentines day with these flowers and a new watch for me! I couldn't stop smiling! For our v-day date we headed to dinner at olive garden followed by a movie, The Vow. I love having a forever sweetheart to spend my valentines with. We liked the vow despite it being frustrating and sad, it lived up to the story described in the previews. And I always walk away happy after a chicken Alfredo pizza at olive garden!

Happy LOVE Day

Happy Valentines Day everyone! Three years ago this morning my valentine proposed to me! To celebrate I'm making heart-shaped cookie press cookies-they call for three sticks of butter people, call me Paula Dean (but really I would love that).

Also, here are some photos of the last of my 'days of valentines' that I fell behind on. (minus crush soda with 'I've got a crush on you', a sucker with mask and cape that said 'you're super valentine', and dove chocolate with a ribbon tied in a knot 'my life would knot be the same without you'-must have gotten eaten!)

Days 3 & 4

I'm lagging on posts but the downed computer is really throwing me off! I had pictures of all my surprises on there and now I'm having a hard time getting new pictures before Shad opens into his loot :).

On the third day of Valentines I gave to my true love.. a cutout of my hand that said I heart you on the palm. I'd taped it to the garage door for him to see when he came home from work, but when I got home that night he had written 'more' on the bottom and taped it to a rose he bought me! I got out-valentinesed by my valentine!

On the fourth day of Valentines I gave to my true love.. a pack of rolos with a note inside: I like the way you roll!
