A little congrats

I would just like to announce that my boy got a 97% on his Spanish test! Yay for him...and us cause I guess his grades do sort of effect me:)

As of Lately...

First of all...
Michael's best friend Eric and his soon to be wife Micaela came down from Rexburg.
We went to Cafe Rio, Bowling (Each couple was a team and I am proud to say that Michael and I won! However when Micaela and I played on a team..we didn't do so well. I blame myself haha).
We then went to Flour Girl and Dough Boys (a little bakery)...If you haven't been there yet you must go! And then we just went back to our tiny apartment and talked for hours!
We are so glad they were able to come down and play with us!

Secondly...
We went to Washington for 5 days!! I absolutely love Michael's family.
I went and saw Valentine's Day with his Mom while Michael went to lunch with his dad, we played marbles and checkers. Speaking of checkers I just thought I would share this: I completely whooped Michael at this game...yes I jumped every single one of his guys without losing one of mine! Yay! We went out to dinner with his parents, went out to lunch with the family (they had magnetic silverware), watched lots of movies, went to Matthew's basketball game, played Tiger Woods golf on the play station, got our teeth cleaned (no cavities!), learned how cheese is made, ate cheese curds, had an amazing Valentine's Day dinner. Michael went golfing with the boys while I went to a craft fair and got the cutest magnets for our fridge! Nevertheless, it was an amazing 5 days with the most amazing family! We already miss them and can't wait to see them in a little over a month!

Thirdly...
We went to see New Moon again last night at the dollar movie!
Yes, it was Michael's idea haha.
I don't do so well with the movies after 6:00 pm so I ended up falling asleep.

Lastly and the cutest...
Michael and I have been married for 6 months now.
Our little anniversary is on Valentines haha.
I can't believe it has already been 6 months!
I think we have learned and grown a lot and I can't wait to spend the rest of our lives together and forever!

I am bad a taking pictures...but here are a couple!

Spotlights:

I would just like to say that these 2 people brought a smile to me today and helped me realize how lucky I am to be surrounded by people that care about me.

HarrisonThis is my little brother Harrison.

Can I just say that I love him so much.
I am so grateful he is a part of our family.
He is a little out of control....i guess VERY.
But he has a very sweet sensitive side that comes out sometimes:)
Let me share with you one of those times.
Today Michael and I each got a valentine from this precious boy.
Here is what they said: (I left the spelling how he spelled it)

I am so glad I have a little brother just like him.
I love love love love him too!


Grandpa Brown

This is my Grandpa Brown.
He is more than just a grandpa to me.
He is a best friend.
Today he took me to lunch.
I think he knew I needed some extra encouragement.
Just today he taught me:
Determination
Motivation
Faith in myself
To never give up
And
How to be the best I can be.
I think he knew I needed that.
(I've been trying to make a decision on what to do with school)
He told me that he would always love me no matter what
because it is our qualities that define us, not what we do.
He told me to be the type of person I want to be.
And to do the things that truly make me happy.
He told me that it doesn't matter what other people think.
He reminded me of of who I am.
And that I can do whatever I set my mind to.
My grandpa reintroduced me to a girl today.
I really have missed her.
And
I've decided that I want to be her again.
Because I know she has a lot in store for her.
I am so grateful for a grandpa that knows and cares about what his oldest granddaughter needs.
I love him.
I really think I have the best grandpa.

Bonking heads:

Lately.....

My boy and I have been bonking heads quite a bit.
I guess it is just something that happens when you are always so close to someone.
Sometimes we just get so excited to see each other that we forget to watch where our heads are.
And
Sometimes when we jump in bed, we wiggle around so much trying to get warm that are heads just hit.
And
Sometimes when we wrestle, our heads can't help but bump.
I think it's funny even though it kind of hurts.
Sometimes we can't help but laugh.
This might sound weird....but I think it's cute.
It's cute because it reminds me how much I love him and how even a silly thing like bonking our heads will be something we look back and laugh at forever.
