Romeo and Juliet



Anniversary Inn

On Monday, John and I stayed at the Anniversary Inn...we had alot of fun! The best part of it all was that we stayed there for free!!!!!
These are pictures of the suite we stayed in, it was pretty cool although the outside almost scared us away (we almost drove back to Springville without checking it out). The hotel was originally built as the manufacturing facility for the Old Salt Lake City Brewery Company, so you can imagine how the building looks. However, the inside is pretty cool. The cool part of this hotel is that each room is designed around a specific theme, we stayed in the Romeo and Juliet Suite!!! hehe.

My Amazing Husband!

Our friend Sam Wright came over for dinner last night. We haven't seen him since the wedding so it was fun catching up with him. During our conversation, he asked us a question that got me thinking. He asked John and I to name two things we love about each other. This question got me thinking about John and everything he does for me.Sometimes I'm so busy with life that I forget to take the time to be grateful for those amazing qualities John has. As I pondered on this question my heart was filled with gratitude and I felt so blessed to be his wife. John is a man filled with the spirit. He strives daily to become a better husband. He loves the Lord. He honors and respects me. He is a worthy priesthood holder and lives in a way that he can be worthy of the guidance of the spirit. He is kind to me and others. He's hardworking and unselfish. He is non judgmental and forgiving.He is happy and brings joy to our home. He is compassionate and caring. He is patient and delicate with me. He is faithful and obedient. But above all, he puts the Lord first. I'm so grateful for the man he is and for everything he does for me. He is my best friend and i love him so much!!!!

On Sunday, John turned 27...yay!!!! I was really excited to celebrate his birthday. And although we didn't do everything I had planned to do we had a lot of fun. We had biscuit, sausage and gravy for breakfast, went to church, had dinner, eat cravel ice cream cake and went for a cool drive down Hobble Creek Canyon. =) It was fun!

Omniture Carnival

On saturday, Omniture had a huge event for all employees and family at Thanksgiving Point. I took a picture of John, as he participated in a huge Paper,Rock, Scissor competition. The person who won was a little 7 year old girl. She won a $5,000 check to go on a family vacation....crazy!!! There was a ton of people playing. I lost in the first round. =(
