Wishes Do Come True

Matt and I started ballroom dance lessons! I am so excited. It was a blast and Matt is really good and such a good sport. I was actually more nervous than he was. We learned the basic steps to waltz, rumba, fox trot, swing and tango. We had a blast and cant wait to have our first dance at our wedding. That's the main reason I wanted lessons and also something fun and different for us to learn something new together.

Long time no see

Last weekend we got together with the cousins to make pizzas, play games and see each other again! THANKS Brooke and Shawn for letting us come to your house. That was so fun. We need to do it again with more of our cousins and their spouses!

Bowling Date Night

We went to Bonwood Bowling. It was a great deal! $7 each for 3 games each. Our first game was the best. I got 127 and Matt got 164! What a great bowler!We were excited to bowl!!
Matt wouldnt smile- he kept doing face like this:
haha but he did make me laugh. We had a good time.

Work

I had my first event on Thursday. Everything went really well and I learn so much everyday. I had to make sure all the tables and chairs were set up correctly and knew who to contact when we needed help with the internet, lights, power strips, food, and coat racks.
I really do like my job and everyone i work with. I'm an adult now!

I even have my own nametag.

I went to a social media seminar and learned how to do marketing via facebook, blogs, twitter, etc. I learned a lot. and even got a twitter and facebook account. Wahoo! Lol

Valentine's Day

I had a great Valentine's Day! My mom is cute and festive and gave me Valentine socks and candy. And we eat dinner on Valentines plates and napkins.

I LOVE MATT!! He bought us 5 Private lessons for Ballroom dance (at King Studio on Foothill Dr- http://www.ballroomutah.com/) and he said part of the gift is him willing to come learn how to dance with me. Lol. We are going to start lessons next week and I cant wait. He also gave me candy and a CD with songs that remind him of me. It was so sweet!


I gave him a memory foam topper for his bed, headphones and baked him a homemade apple pie!
Yes this is the actual pie I baked. It was delicious. I got the recipe from http://www.wikihow.com/Bake-an-Apple-Pie-from-Scratch with step by step instructions and pictures. It was my kind of cooking!
We also watched the movie Paper Heart. It was hilarious- this documentary basically about love and how this girl doesnt believe in it or that she will find it....until she does!

Matt you are my best friend and lover! Thanks for the special day!

Lunch time Fun

On Tuesday Melinda, Mikell and Kenzie came downtown again to go to lunch with me. It was so fun- thanks! We had coupons from Pier 49 and got a FREE personal pizza from freebies2deal.com. Things always taste better when they are 1. Free and 2. No work to prepare. It was awesome and delicious. Mikell is SO smart! Probably the smartest 2 year old ever. She is adorable and getting big.
Mikell thought the train (trax) was so cool. So we rode on it for her first time in the free zone and she got SO excited. And a little nervous. We had a fun day.

She wanted to take pictures with my phone...
My flowers blossomed and are so beautiful! Its been good to have these flowers brighten my day this week! I love Matt!

Matt is the BEST!

Matt is so sweet. Thursday I was just sitting at work and the secretary brought me this big package from ProFlowers. I was SO excited! I got flowers, bath salt and a box of chocolates delivered to me at work from Matt! Now they are more in bloom and beautiful! It was such a surprise. I called to thank him and he's like I thought you needed some flowers on your desk until Valentines Day. I love lilies. They and calla lilies are my favorites!
One of the many things I love about Matt is that he always goes the extra mile. He wants to do things right, not just right but be the best at it. And he succeeds. He is the best. I always laugh, smile and know I am loved. I LOVE Matt so much!

Baby Shower

My cousin Danielle is having her first baby- a little girl. I went with my mom and sisters to her baby shower last weekend. It had been so long since I'd seen my cousins and it was so fun!! I love them. We need to get together more often. I'm excited f0r our upcoming date/game night at Brooke and Shawns!!

Jonis baby is adorable! It was fun seeing my grandma and aunts too. Love the Dicksons!
