Presidents Day Weekend + Sam = Fun Weekend!

On Friday, we had a freakish storm and it SNOWED AGAIN (that's the third snow storm this season! We usually only get one...maybe)!! I luckily had the day off anyway so I was able to get some pretty awesome pics of the storm.



It snowed for a couple of hours and then the storm left as quickly as it came. Luckily not much of the snow stuck!!



For Valentine's Day, Sam and I decided to go to the temple in the morning and we had a blast there! Then on the way back, we decided to go to Outback Steakhouse for lunch, since it wouldn't be as crowded as the night would've been.


Sam and I are pretty boring people. We don't order steak when we go to Outback. We always order and share the Bloomin' Onion, Kakaburra Wings, and an ice cream sundae. Yummers! Then Sam bought me a BEAUTIFUL bouquet of lilies and hyacinthia. They're so beautiful! We wanted to celebrate Valentine's Day earlier in the day so that Sam had time to study for his midterms this week.

Today (Monday) seriously was like the most perfect day. I already had the day off for President's Day, but Sam was feeling pretty sick today with a pretty nasty cold, so he also stayed home (we NEVER get days off together!). Unfortunately, our heater broke Saturday night and our repair man couldn't fix it until tonight. When we woke up this morning it was 51 degrees inside our house and we could see our breath! It's been pretty cold and rainy all day today! So we spent the day trying to heat up our house by baking all sorts of cookies, we did a million loads of laundry and dishes (we were trying to use every appliance possible in order to get our house warm), and wearing layers galore. Then we snuggled up together and watched "Enchanted" this afternoon. What a perfect day! I love random days off together! :)

I love days like that! It sounds like you guys had a pretty fun weekend just being together. I love those days when you get to just spend time together, no time schedule, just enjoying one another.

That sucks about your heater! We experianced that last winter. NO FUN! Our daughter Parx unfortunatly had to experiance it with us, pretty ruff. Hope it's fixed soon.

The Bloomin' Onion is one of the most disgusting things I've ever tried eating.
