Valentines Day!

Chris had a 4 day vacation so we decided to take advantage and enjoy some skiing in Utah! We got to enjoy a snow day with Karen and Brian and after some Cafe Rio and Olympics! It was a perfect night! The next day we had a family party and got to see everyone except Alison and Travis! We missed them and baby Grayson and I wish Chris could meet him because I have already seen him twice so I feel a little guilty. Alison you just got to convince Chris to come to Denver! It was so fun to be with the Smith's and to see how happy and comfortable Chris felt at home back in his high school attire red sweatshirt and gray sweats ;).


After missing my flight from Utah to Omaha I got to spend an extra night in SLC, hey I wasn't complaining! I got to reminisce with the Bangeter's and my family at my grandparents house what I remembered of Sunday dinners. It's funny when you move away. Chris and I always do dinner together for Sunday it makes you thankful to be able to sit down and eat with family. My new flight I had a 5 hour layover in Denver. Thank Heavens I didn't bring Maggie! I actually got to study for my A and P test which I ended up getting a 96%~! Who knew I would be so good at Endocrine and Cardiology ;). JK those are hard! I got in at 6:30 and we had tickets to Justing Timberlake (JT). We tried to sell our tickets thinking that we wouldn't have time but we ended up going and it was a blast! Our seats were awesome and Justin came all the way from the stage to the back of the stadium. I even filmed his butt super close…no I was just frantic in getting my camera to turn on and filmed him instead!…;)

3 years ago from this Valentine's Day, Chris came all the way from Texas keeping it a secret from my family (at least my mom) because if he told my mom he knew word would get out to me. It is one of the most memorable days I have and one of the best days I've ever had. When I saw him come out of the bushes in a suit while holding the note and flowers I didn't even recognize him! I was that surprised I couldn't believe he was actually there in Utah!

This year I woke up to a big card and teddy bear, and candy and popcorn! I knew he would wake up before me so the night before I left out a little something for him crossword puzzles, beef jerky, pop tarts, a card, and a nice "doctor pen". We know each other very well even after 3 years. I still feel like a newlywed though!
We celebrated indoors this year since it was packed at midtown crossing with couples! We made our favorite salad "Cornucopia Salad" the best salad EVER. I decorated the table with a red table cloth and lights and hearts. I bought sparkling cider and made appetizers shrimp and cocktail sauce and dip with bread. We then watched a chick flick and cuddled on the couch now that is my kind of Valentines Day :).

This week has gone by too fast! I can't believe we have only two months in Omaha. It is bitter sweet but I will miss all the people I have met here. That will be the hardest part.

Love you all and have a fantastic week!
