Winter Wanderings

February is almost over!!!! It's been a very eventful month, hardly a day hasn't been packed full of things to do. One of the best days this month was, of course, Valentines Day! Haha I have always called this holiday "Single's Awareness Day", but not this year :) This was mine and Eric's first Valentines together. Last year I left Cody, WY on the 13th, so we missed it by one day. But this year we got to spend all day together!

We slept in, had a great breakfast, went to the theater and saw Star Wars Episode 1 in 3D, went on a lovely nature walk up Logan Canyon, and then came home and made "Juicy Lucy's" for dinner. Juicy Lucy's are basically hamburgers with the cheese in the middle of the burger instead of on top. Last year we bought a little grill to use and this is the first time we've used it. Some assembly was required (Eric's a great handy man, and he basically did it without instructions because they were.... difficult to understand...). But the burgers turned out fantastic! I had a little mild cheddar in my burger and Eric put some stinky blue cheese in his. Lol

Isn't he so handsome???!!!

I found Eric a really cool Batman hat for Valentines Day!
Unorthodox I know, but he loved it all the same :)


One other crazy thing that happened this February was.... cross-stitching! Haha One night Eric and I were looking at an Egyptian cross-stitch I had made for him while he was on his mission and Eric mentioned that he had always had a secret desire to learn how to cross-stitch. Well, he married the right woman! :) The next day we went to Michael's and found a cross-stitch he wanted to try. So far he's enjoying it a lot!! He may get teased for it sometimes, but he doesn't mind and he's making great progress!

Here is his progress as of several weeks ago. I need to get an updated picture!

Well, life is great! We are moving in just over a week and then shortly afterwards we are going to California for Spring Break!!!!!!
