Valentine's Day, Etc.

Well, nothing in our boring lives has changed but we did spend another wonderful Valentines Day together. Daniel had 18 red roses sent to Wingers on Saturday and when I got there he gave me them and attached was a cute little note that said how much he loved me and how special I am to him, all that good stuff :) Once we got home from Wingers I gave him his gift which was a new watch and a gift card to Game Stop so he can fulfill his nerdy desires to have more and more video games. Not that he has time for that because for an early birthday gift Daniel got P90X. On Valentines Day we went to church and taught our darling primary class. Yep, you heard it we got a new calling to be teachers for the CTR 7 class. They are so cute. I was a bit scared they were going to put us in sun beams or nursery as a hint to prepare for some little ones. Ha ha, when Daniel and I were set apart for our calling the bishop asked what age group we are teaching and when we told him he was shocked because they were actually calling us for sun beams. The primary president decided that position was for someone else and we got the wonderful CTR 7 class. It was so fun teaching them and we gave them a little Valentines treat. Technically you aren't allowed to give treats out in primary but I justified by saying it was a holiday :) I told my primary president to expect treats for holidays and she laughed. After church we stayed home and relaxed and I started feeling sick. So I spent the last hours of Valentines Day sick. My sickness continued on Monday through Today!!! I am finally getting over it. I think I jinxed myself because I was telling people I never get sick and here I am sick. It was some lame cold that gave me a headache, cough, sore throat and upset tummy. All symptoms are gone and now my throat is just itchy from healing.

Daniel started the P90X workouts Tuesday February 16 and so far has been diligent in working out for two consecutive days. I am scared to start it because he says he can't even do some of the things they do on the video. If Daniel can't do it there is no way in my right mind I should think that I could do it. I will of course give it a shot but I am scared none the less. We know that it is a good healthy form of exercise and the results are real. We have seen friends and family succeed with this program. You can get out of it whatever you want. If you want to change your body image or just get in better shape, your goal is accessible.

Well Daniel is going to be 22 at the end of the month. So far we don't have any big plans but I think he wants to go to TGI Fridays for his birthday dinner. Other than that the day is up to him. We have the whole day off from work and I am sure he will want to relax and perhaps play a video game. I still have not decided what to get him for his birthday. I usually have the gift bought and wrapped by now. This year is hard because he has pretty much everything he wants or needs. I am just going to have to think harder to come up with something to get him.

I have made myself extra busy with crocheting headbands and beanies and selling them; Preparing to make a large quilt and a baby quilt out of fabric and making myself an apron. Yes I do this all in the free time that I don't have but I just love staying busy. I finished my apron the other night and I will post pictures as soon as I take one of the final product. I took several pictures along the way. I am still keeping busy with the rest of the projects and I was talking to Daniel about two more projects I need to start and finish. When I have ideas I just can't wait and these two gifts need to be finished in time for the two special ladies in our lives for Mother's Day. Daniel likes the ideas and I might just let him help pick out the stuff needed to fit each of their personalities or I might just have them fit mine and Daniel's personalities so they are reminded of us often :) They are already reminded of us often and they know us so well, we are lucky they are in our lives. Yay us!

Well that about ends all the activities and events for now. I will be back to discuss the Birthday celebration sooner than later. Until then have a wonderful end to February :)
