Anniversatines Day!

I was just about to blog and I got a text from from my friend Krystina asking how my anniversatines day was. Valentine's Day was our one year anniversary! When we were engaged and people would ask when we were getting married we would sheepishly answer,"Valentine's Day". Our reason for doing that day was because it was the Saturday on President's day weekend, and we made sure to explain that to everyone so they wouldn't think we were corny. Whenever we would tell anyone there were similar reactions 1) "Awwww how cute", 2) "You won't have to worry about forgetting your anniversary", and 3)"Good thinking Tim, take care of two things with one present".

But since then, I've decided that I love our anniversary day being on valentine's. Stores start selling all of their valentine's goodies in January so it creates this really big exciting build-up to our anniversary. I like to believe that everybody is celebrating for us instead of doing their own thing.

Tim and I started celebrating early, loading up on lots of valentine's chocolates a couple days before. We went out on Saturday night for dinner and a movie. We ended up eating at this place in Salt Lake called The Wild Grape. I wish I had taken pictures of the food because it was so pretty, and delicious. For an appetizer we had a bread, fruit and cheese tasting. It was soooo good. Tim got a bison steak and I had salmon. Anyone who knows me knows that tastey food is the best present you can give me! Speaking of presents, Tim got me this really pretty Mediterranean painting which is HUGE and now on our bedroom wall.I got him a football xbox game! haha. It's what he wanted, okay?! Anyway, we had a great night and we ate some more chocolates on Sunday to celebrate our real anniversary. We have had so much fun being newlyweds and we're excited for the many years ahead of us.

Besides that, Tim's and my life have been about the same. Tim is still working hard and I'm trying to finish school. We have a lot of family coming to visit in about a week and we're excited to see everyone.
