Romance





This last weekend was a very good one :) Drew took me to big sky on saturday night for a surprise that i've been impatiently waiting for since valentine's day. We went on a sleigh ride up to a nice cabin and had an amazing dinner. the entertainer was awesome! he is a local guy that loves to sing about montana and food haha! he had a beautiful voice. after dinner we snuggled back up in the sleigh and rode back down. it was truly romantic and so much fun :) i am so excited for all the romantic times to come! :)

weekend with mommy!

weekend with mommy was so much fun and extremely needed. when i'm this far from home, it's always a breath of fresh air to see family and feel their love.
we had a great time just relaxing, watching the Olympics and talking a lot of wedding plans. :) mom spent most of friday with drew seeing as i had classes and practice. i'm really glad that they got that time to get to know each other.
we went and checked out student housing and we definitely found a good one for us! i am so excited! we applied and everything now we just have to wait and see how things play out. i am so glad that mom was there to give her opinion and advice. i'm always a bit more comfortable with my decisions when she's around that's for sure.
saturday was just me and mom. we went to randi's baptism which was absolutely amazing. i'm so happy that mom got a little taste of how the u ward works and how amazing the missionary experiences are here in montana. :)
mom helped us plan out our honeymoon trip which made a lot more sense her way than my way. haha! again with the decision making.... always better when mom is involved.
we had german pancakes sunday morning and played a game of oh heck before she left for utah. it was sad to see her go, but i will see her soon for spring break.
a great weekend! :) thanks mommy!!

Valentine's Day






Valentine's weekend was great :) Saturday night we went and saw the Valentine's Day movie. It was pretty good perfect for the holiday, who woulda thought?
Sunday morning was church. I was surprised how many people didn't wear pink haha! But it was a good three hours :) I couldn't wait to give drew his present. I got him a couple nice shirts and a new cologne-maximum from areo. He bought me flowers :) and we are gonna have a continued celebration on the 27th.. I have no idea what he has planned, but I'm super excited! :)
Sunday night we had dinner with the Hubbards. It was a big turkey dinner for Ben cause he hadn't had turkey dinn in a couple years. It was delicious! Donna is an amazing cook (hopefully she will teach me a few things)
The girls (me, tay, and randi) were told to dress warm for a surprise that the boys had planned. I'm glad we did! It was cold out in the middle of the river! the boys found this hut thing and made a fire. we all went out and had a good time together :) We ended our night in Cam's hot tub which was nice after our cold trip.
It was a very good first Valentine's day together :)
