Not a real post

I am just checking something.

If you think...

I am the worst blogger ever, then you are probably right.  Sorry about that.  I have mainly transitioned to facebook now.  It is just easier for me to keep up.  I hope everyone is doing well!  

thank you il fornaio

So I did not eat all day...busy...busy...busy...and just one of those days. I am starving and I am on my way from work to school. I remember that there is a yummy bakery in between the towers at my school. I had been there once (months ago) and got a really good sandwich. So I decide to stroll in again and I don't really know how it all works. So I look at the menu and go to order and the very nice man tells me they are all out of my sandwich that I want but that they have these other ones available. I look sad and confused so I just start looking around aimlessly when this other nice man comes out of nowhere behind me and asks if I would like this restaurant that is hooked onto the bakery to make me my sandwich. I am so confused now, and thinking in my head "huh?" but what comes out of my mouth is "yes, that would be great". He says ok and leaves. The original guy comes and tells me that they are making a sandwich just for me and it will be there in a minute. Literally, about a minute later I have a fresh sandwich that looks absolutely delicious. I pay and go to leave but I am locked in. What? you say. Yep...I was confused again too. Apparently, this bakery is a break-off of the restaurant and I walked in as the bakery portion was closing (never would have guessed because of how nice they were). Also, I guess you are supposed to pick out a pre-made sandwich. That is why they were all out of mine. But, no no, they took good care of me. All smiles on the employees, amazing service, and absolutely delicious sandwich (turkey, avocado, etc. on rosemary focaccia bread). Yum Yum! Where is this at? It is called Il Fornaio and it is a restaurant and bakery. Thank you so much Il Fornaio. I have been gone since 6:45 AM and will not be home until 10:30 PM tonight, and any little kindness really just makes my day that much better. I will definitely be back!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!!!

Happy Birthday Mom!  We love you sooooo much!  We miss you and we are excited to see you soon.  

Happy LOVEY Day!

Valentine's Day was wonderful for us.  We started our day out at the temple.  Next we went out to breakfast.  Followed by a few hours at the beach to relax (and I got some studying done).  Then we went out to eat at an Indian food restaurant, our favorite.  Last, we went to see the movie, Confessions of a Shopaholic...it was hilarious.  It is one of the most fun days I have had in awhile.  

I love Valentine's Day.  It is my most favorite holiday ever!  I think LOVE is one of the best things ever to celebrate...all kinds of love...romantic, family, friendship, God, etc.  I really believe love is powerful.  Love has seen me through my life through times of joy and happiness and through times of tears and turmoil.  I have watched love change my life and the lives of those around me.  This is why I have celebrated love since I can remember.   

The gorgeous gold necklace Brian bought me.  I love it!

I got Brian some macademia nut hershey kisses (thanks Megh for the idea).

Then I got him personalized M&M's.  They come in this nice box with 3 bags in it.  They distribute the personalization stuff evenly among the colors.  Pretty cool!

Yes...this is a picture of us on the M&M.  

A couple of my cheeseball sayings.  :)  

Anyway, I hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day!  We sure did!
