A Valentines without the paper & chocolate hearts.

This year instead of doing a big fancy date and decorating the apartment, we decided to do something different. Because we are trying to start getting things organized, Cody thought it would be pointless to decorate for a week or two. Instead of doing a nice fancy dinner, he got me a massage! Work has been stressful and I come home crying at times. It is so hard for me to work under conditions that make the entire company look bad but have my opinion not matter at all.
So a massage was just what I needed.

We are also going snowboarding this evening. Fingers crossed I wont be too sore next week!

I have made a decision, well more of a discovery.
I want to shoot a lot more black and white. A lot more just on the interactive and unexpected shots. More candids.

Things that I am really looking forward to are:
  • summertime dresses and shorts
  • my chacos I haven't seen since September
  • a lot of sunshine
  • big sunglasses
  • attending a wedding in the same temple we were married in
  • visiting lovely pregnant and non pregnant best friends :)
  • making more yummy treats like peanut butter bars
  • spending more mornings like this one, waking up to a smiling husband with the sun shining in
  • more time to read 
  • more time to enjoy just time

I hope you are all having a marvelous weekend!

It is Thursday.
That means Zumba tonight.
I was looking at prices of Zumba classes in a few different areas to get an idea about the cost. How depressing. $50 for 10 Zumba classes. Oh, BYU-I fitness center, you spoil me with your free classes.

Tonights dinner is Lasagna. Not only is it home made but... I made it up. I have never made it before, meaning Lasagna at all, and I decided I didn't want to follow a recipe. One day I will eventually learn to follow a recipe. But for now I will stick to my creations.

I have been wanting to take pictures so bad lately. Everyone is getting engaged and married and I have yet to photograph them. I already have two Weddings lined up for this spring so far and I am really excited.

What I would love is to take another trip to Alaska this summer. It makes it even more tempting because my mom now works for the airlines. Cheap tickets :)

I quit work in less than two months and I could not be more excited. 

Anyways, time to light the candles, set the table, and enjoy a nice relaxing dinner.
