Thawing

We had some warmer temperatures today, so after church we went for a nature walk around our favorite pond.  There were new streams of the clearest water I had ever seen and a great deal of mud.  And Equinox Pond is starting to thaw.  I have loved watching the pond change through our first four seasons here.  No matter the time of year, it is beautiful.  I am so in awe of the Earth and the beauty in the seasons!  I love where I live!

Jeremy about had a heart attack when I ventured out on the ice.  It got him to take a picture really fast though.  He's the best.

we discovered this cool lake just 20 minutes away.

the trail around it was hopping... everyone is loving the warmer weather around here.

so glad we found it at the beginning and not the end of the sunshine season!

it was a dreary day, but we still found pretty things.

weekend of LOVE

saturday, february 13th - our one year anniversary

we started the day by going out to breakfast at magleby's fresh. it was delicious.

jeremy's all you can eat french toast on the left, my bacon and cheese omelet on the right.

we opened our presents in the morning. we aren't very good at waiting. jeremy gave me gift cards yay! i'm going shopping!! and gummy bears. i gave him a watch and it is snazzy! we also made cards for each other. i love homemade cards. so original and from the heart.

from jeremy to me: "We are 1 year old. The best year of my life."

from me to jeremy: "LOVE. we are so in it!"

we played some games on the wii and then we headed to the movies in the afternoon.

we snuck in some treats after a trip to good ole smith's. shhhhhh... please don't hate me.

mambas and peanut butter m&m's. so tasty.

we skipped the crowded restuarants and had a gourmet meal at home. made mostly with the help of the crock pot, so it was easy.

peppered pot roast, sliced potatoes, green beans, and a roll. this is my plate.

check out all those veggies mom!

we ended the night with some peanut butter cup cake. so good!

we are officially one year old!

sundey, february 14th - valentine's day

our third together

we opened our presents in the morning, again. jeremy got me a pretty flower ring. i love it. and i got him a t-shirt and some heart boxers.

we skipped church so we could spend more time together.

NOT. we went, otherwise our primary kids would have missed us. they are so funny.

we went on our sunday afternoon stroll around the neighborhood.

we had saturday's leftovers for dinner and enjoyed fondue for dessert.

what a fun weekend.




ahhhhh! i am so in love with this boy.

i just can't get enough of him.
