1 year anniversary

Monday the 19th was Ethan and I's one year anniversary! Cant believe it has been a whole year since I married my best friend! Best year of my life! 


We woke up to snow in THATCHER! It was crazy to see the fields covered in snow and to see snowflakes falling down in the valley.


Ethan and I went to Mesa for spring break so we left that morning. For our anniversary dinner we went to PF Changs (we went to that exact same restaurant on our honeymoon) We are going to make it a tradition to go there for each anniversary!


We are pretty much out of money so we told each other a long time ago to not spend a lot of money on our anniversary gifts( I was lying  though) I got Ethan the brand new Outdoors HD GoPro Hero 2 camera! It took most of my bank account but seriously this boy deserved it! I told him that I was just making him something handmade for our anniversary so that he would be super surprised! Low and behold he didn't hold back either. He got me the wedge heels I have been obsessing over for months now online. HE IS THE BEST.


After dinner we went to The Sugar Bowl and had some ice cream and then went to the movies. I think they knew it was our anniversary because we had the whole theater to ourselves (E said he bought it out for our anniversary...ha I will just try and keep on thinking that's what happened).


Here are a couple pictures from our love fest.

I didnt just want to hand Ethan his present. I wanted it to be special so I made him coupons,wrapped them up, and he opened them at dinner. He thought that was my present to him...ha! Each coupon had something free for him that he could use and next to it had a little picture. Well I made about eight coupons and he went through them and then the last coupon said: This coupon is good for one free anniversary present and next to it was a picture of a Go Pro. I then pulled the Go Pro out of my purse... I wish I could have filmed his face! He was ecstatic!  I would say that I did pretty good :)






Yes those are the new oxford wedge heels he got me :)

I love you E!

Donations

I am obsessing.... our couch is broken and its really giving me back problems.... mom if you are reading this, yes, we turned it over and no, it cannot be fixed. SOOOOO if anyone wants to buy me this couch or make a donation to our couch fund that would be great. But in all seriousness I am in love with this sectional from ikea and want it badly.


I keep thinking of how cute it would look in our home and how I could decorate it with the cutest pillows.... oh the possibilities!

a night out

I know I have posted this picture on both instagram and facebook but I just had the best weekend. Ethan and I have been slacking big time when it comes to date nights together so we decided to go for dinner and a movie.


Here in small town Thatcher you don't have many choices of restaurants to choose from. Since we are on the atkins diets( Ethan has lost over 20lbs..so proud of him.. me only 11) We decided on Denny's since it has a variety of different meals and it is one of the most fanciest restaurants here...I know its sad.


After Dinner we headed over to the movie theaters. There is only one movie theater in town and it has five screens. We were hoping to see "This Means War" but they weren't playing it so we went with the movie "Gone". We had an hour in a half to kill before the movie started so we headed to Bashas and got us some 0 cal drinks for 99 cents but they werent cold so we got some free ice from sonic and had fun in the car taking pictures until our movie started. The movie was ok but we really just had the time of our lives being together out on a date. We definitely need to keep up with our date nights.


Today (Sunday) we went to church and then after church we packed us up a blanket, food, and music and rode our bikes(motorcycle & scooter) and went for a picnic! It was a blast and the weather was perfect! Love afternoons like these! We also video taped a lot of our day today so Ethan will be making a video soon and I will post it here when he is done! :)
