Thanks for a wonderful visit!

Valentine's day!

I'm so glad this sweet man is my valentine!

Sorry the picture is tiny. I had to pull it off facebook. It's the one that they took at the Ward Party - Will did have a tie on at the beginning of the night, but by this time he was busy with dishes, hence the lack of a tie.

This is what I came home to on Valentine's Day. The present turned out to be a Masie Dobb's novel I haven't ready yet. Yay! (In case you can't tell, those are spanish candy hearts.)

I bought him peanut butter M&Ms for Valentines.

Will was also in charge of the dinner for the ward Valentine's party on Friday night. He did homemade chicken cordon bleu. It was delicious, but did involve pounding lots of raw chicken. He was a champ in getting it all ready. The rest of the menu was baked potatoes, salad, and rolls. Then for dessert we had lemon-misu (it's like tirimisu, but it's lemon flavored) and sprite and raspberry sherbet punch. They had dancing and a talent show. Will played the piano and sang Younger than Springtime from South Pacific. It was a great night!

New pillows and couch

Ta da! Here are the new pillow cases I made on Friday. Will and I picked up the fabric 50% off last weekend when we were up in Kaysville and he has been so excited for me to make them. It finally happened on Friday. I'm excited because we bought pillow forms, so I can make new cases whenever I want to change things around. Also, some of you might be wondering...yes that is our new couch as well. We bought it on New Years and are loving it for a number of reasons. One, it's really comfy. Two, it's long - just ask Cait - she slept on it all stretched out when she came to visit. Three, it goes with anything, as opposed to Grandma's sweet plaid couch.
