The month of April has been a pretty fabulous one! My birthday was on the 3rd and it was pretty great. My friend Ashley and I went for pedicures the day before (Ashley’s birthday gift to me, which was awesome!) and we went to lunch. It was great to have some much needed Girl Time. General Conference was that weekend, so we watched a lot of that. After Kevin was done with the Priesthood session we went to The Pizza Factory for dinner. Love those breadsticks!
My actual birthday I ended up waking up fairly early and couldn’t fall back to sleep, so I decided to make my birthday dessert myself. Blueberry Supreme! It is basically cheesecake dessert with blueberry pie filling on top. Kevin woke up just as I was finishing it, and he wasn’t too happy that I had made my own dessert. I just wanted to help! I finally got to open my birthday presents in between Conference sessions. Kevin bought me an Xbox Kinect and a dancing game to go with it. We set it up right away and found that our little townhouse is a bit small to really be able to play. We still had fun though.
That night we had some fun friends over for dinner (Kevin’s homemade lasagna. My absolute favorite food in the world!) and dessert. We played Catch Phrase, boys against girls, and the girls won every time. Of course! Turned out to be a pretty perfect birthday!
The following weekend was our First Wedding Anniversary. Since we are going on a cruise in May, we tried to play it a little low-key but I couldn’t do nothing, so we did celebrate some. Our anniversary was the 10th,which fell on a Sunday, so we really celebrated on Saturday. Kevin and I bought Utah County super passes or whatever they are called, so we went to the Trafalga in Lehi in the afternoon to play mini golf and laser tag. Unfortunately, it was insanely busy and we spent about 2 hours in line to play two 15 min games. After our adventures at Trafalga we headed up to Salt Lake City and checked into the same hotel we spent our wedding night in. For dinner we went to Ruth’s Christ Steakhouse. My boss had given me a $100 gift card for there a couple months prior so we saved it to use for our anniversary. So glad we did since we still ended up paying $50. The food was incredible though. Best steak I have ever had, and incredible crème brule. Would definitely love to do it again, when we are rich.
The weather was pretty gross, so we were very grateful we didn’t have to drive all the way back down to Spanish Fork. The hotel was nice and had an indoor pool and free breakfast, so we had a pretty fantastic weekend.
It is hard to believe that I have been married to my incredible, loving, generous, selfless, patient husband for over a year now. I still get butterflies when I see him and fall in love with him more and more each day. I am incredibly blessed!
I still have two more events to write about, but I will have to write about them later. And hopefully will be able to post pictures soon.
