Happy Hearts Full of LOVE!

Last Thursday I woke up early to begin making, with the help of a mix, Valentine sugar cookies for our grandparents.  After a little mishap, I was able to get them in and out of the oven in time to go see a movie with Colby's sister Ashli.  She had invited me the day before, and since I didn't have work, why not?  We saw Dear John, and I thought it was very good.  It had a very unexpected twist at the end and we enjoyed it.  After some Cafe Rio Ashli told me Colby had planned this so he could work on my Valentine's gift.  I instantly felt awful, as he knew, I was getting him nothing.  I came home to a large foam puzzle piece on my counter.

I went down to our basement to find he had cleared out one of the rooms, fixed the treadmill and made me a home gym complete with a flat screen TV.  And that's not even the nicest part... he had sold his gun that he had only bought a few weeks ago.  I absolutely hated the idea of a gun in our house, so he sold it and with the profit, bought and made the gym.  What a babe, he deserves the husband of the year award:).  I am so excited that I no longer have to drive down to my parents to run anymore.

After finding my exciting present, I spent the rest of the afternoon frosting the cookies till Colby got home.  

 

We then spent the rest of the night delivering them to all our grandparents.   Grandpa Radmall, then Grandpa Sherman, Grandma Bev (she was a little camera shy), Grandma Hassell, and lastly Grandma Berg.  

 

We were so excited to take them, and had a lot of fun doing it.  We also gave Grandma Berg her very belated Christmas present.  Ha a little tacky, but luckily some of her kids were also delivering a Christmas present:). 

The next day we left for a fun yet short 3 day snow trip up in Island Park at Colby's friends cabin.  We were up there with 7 other couples, and 4 more friends.  We had a lot of fun 4 wheeling, sledding and just playing games and getting to know each other.  It was a much needed get away, and a great way to celebrate our first married Valentines.
