I forgot... I'm Stylish...
A couple months ago my friend Emily awarded me with the Stylish blogger Award.
Thank you Emily! and I'm sorry I forgot. I remembered today when one of my friends from school posted she had received the award.
So apparently there are some rules that go along with this award (But I changed the number of people you have to pay it forward to because 15 is A LOT...)
1. Thank and link back to the person who awarded you this.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Pay it forward to 7 recently discovered great bloggers.
4. Contact those bloggers and tell them about their Blog Award!
7 Things you never wanted to know about me:

7 Things you never wanted to know about me:
1. I like to quote dialogue from movies and television shows in normal conversation.
2. I don't like to cook... like at all.
3. I'm a blog goal failure... I told the blogging world I would run a 5K this month. The Gusher 5K was this past weekend... and I didn't run. Because I'm a BIG FAT FAILURE with a million and 1 excuses why I couldn't run it.
4. My ultimate weekend is getting to stay at home and watch movie after movie with my husband.
5. I hate car rides (period) It doesn't matter if it's 5 minutes down the road or 24 hours. I HATE it!
6. I'm not much of a girly girl... but I have a love/hate relationship of shopping. I love to get new clothes, but I hate that nothing ever fits me just right.
7. I LOVE stilletos!!!

Valentine's Day
Oh February... the month of "Love".
The BIG Day:
Matt and I didn't make ANY plans for Valentine's Day. It was pretty much just like every other Monday. Matt got up early and went to his morning class, so we said a quick goodbye while I was still getting ready for work. Then we didn't have lunch together because he had class, and I knew he'd be home late because he had another class after work.
So since it was the national day of Love I decided I was going to surprise him with a magnificent dinner (because let's face it, I'm the best cook ever...RIGHT!---For all those who really know me, I HAVE been learning to cook since my aunt gave me a new cookbook for Christmas and Matt has so much night school.) Anyways, so I searched through Valentine's Day recipes... and those were too hard. So I typed in the website for the Campbell's Cookbook (my new best friend) and found a simple but delicious dish to try.
Then, after reading my friend's blog (she wrote a fantastically hilarious poem for her husband), I was also inspired to write Matt a poem.
So after work, I ran to Target to buy romantical Heart shaped plates and fun V-day striped cups. I also picked up the few items I needed to be able to make my spectacular dinner and I was set.
Matt came home to this:
And this was there too when he got home:
(The poem is written on the heart. It says: "Roses are Red... Violets are blue... I'm learning how to COOK because I LOVE YOU!"--genius. I know.)
And then a few minutes later this came out of the oven:
And we totally watched ABC's "The Bachelor" while we ate it.-- So Romantical I know.
P.S. Matt was definitely amazed by my poetry writing and cooking skills.
We gave each other our gifts on Saturday. Matt bought me a watch that I LOVE! and I bought him a new belt (which he bought the exact same one on his way home from work that day... don't worry, I'm making him take his BACK!). Oh Accessories!

Say Goobye 2010... Say Hello 2011
With the New Year here, I've been thinking back at the year Matt and I have had together.
2010 gave us our first house.

Smart Phones.
Friends getting married, which meant more chances for us to go to the temple.
New jobs.
My 23rd birthday and his 25th.
Lamar Football BACK.

2010 also brought sadness, loss and frustration, but with that came the joys of family, love, learning, and growth.
We look forward to the new year together and continuing to learn something new everyday in 2011.
