Valentine's Day

This year I was in charge of Valentine's day, which isn't really any kind of stress, because we have rules, haha. Our first year married, we did a huge Valentine's day and then, 2 months later, a huge anniversary. I had planned Valentine's day and we spent the whole weekend on a getaway to Cedar City. Nathan was in charge of our anniversary, and he planned a whole weekend long "stay-cation" where we did tons of fun things around Salt Lake, and had a very expensive anniversary dinner at The Roof. We realized we couldn't afford to do that every year. So we planned that Valentine's day would always be simple, and anniversaries would only be big every 5 years. It has made planning these holidays much more simple. And cheap. Because we're poor.

We slept in that day, thanks Sadie, and I woke up to roses and Reeces. The 2 R's. The only things I really need in life!

We had a picnic downtown at Liberty Park. The weather was amazing! We spent a long time just walking around and enjoying the sunshine. I never thought much about missing the sun until I moved to Utah. The sun is so amazing!!!

Sadie needed to eat so we stopped by Nathan's office so I could feed her and hang out for a while. Sadie took a little nap while we went on a long drive and just talked.

We picked up Olive Garden for dinner! Oh I can't tell you how wonderful it is to NOT go to a restaurant on Valentine's Day. We went out to our new favorite place, Straws, for dessert. Their milkshakes are my bff.

It was a perfect day! I really love my little valentines.
