Early Morning Date

I don't think I mention enough how great my Rob is. This morning I woke up really early craving donuts. No I am not pregnant. You can have cravings without being pregnant. I know, I have them all the time. When I say early I mean 4:30 this morning. After trying to wake Rob up for a half hour he finally agreed to take me somewhere to get donuts. What a great guy! We drove passed four different grocery stores and none of them were open. I could have sworn all the grocery stores we tried were open 24/7 but I guess not. We finally ended up at Macy's in Clearfield around 5:30 and decided to wait the half hour until they opened. They have the BEST whipped maple donuts ever! If you've never tried them you are surely missing out. It was definitely an impromptu date but even that early in the morning Rob is fun to be with! I am so lucky to have him in my life.

Twilight Fad



I decided to start listening to the Twilight books on CD. I figured I would see what all the fuss was about. My nieces all say the books are awesome. So I figured I would give the books a chance. Well, after listening to the first book I think this tale is great. I can see why my nieces really like it. It is a twisted romance. Some people say it is inappropriate to read but I have never really listened to any ones opinions. I try and come to my own conclusions. It is nice to listen to a book on CD while I am working on home improvements. The line in the picture is one of the most romantic lines I have ever heard. However, you have to listen or know about the books to know what it really means. I talk to Rob about the books. I like the Twilight books as much as the Harry Potter books! They are very entertaining.

The Amazing Birthday Cake


My niece was having her first birthday and Rob's sister has a lot of in-laws so she called and asked if he would make a cake to feed enough people going to a small wedding. You think I am kidding. There truly were a ton of people there. But that is what family is all about right? Anyway, Rob researched a lot of cake he could make for this birthday party. He absolutely HATES fondant! And even though it goes on cakes really nicely he didn't want to use it. In the end the cake looked and tasted amazing. As you can see from the picture. I didn't have any doubts. My Rob is very talented!

Cody's Look


I don't mean to show tons of pictures of our dog Cody. I hate when people put nothing on their blog but their pets but I had to share this picture with you. This is Cody's "Dad, STOP taking pictures of me!" look. I give Rob a similar look when he takes tons of pictures of me all at once. He loves playing with our camera. And I have to admit, he does get a lot of good pictures.

Sledding Adventure


Last Saturday I went sledding with a few friends. Unfortunately Rob couldn’t go because he was sick. So I went alone. I haven’t been sledding since I took my niece Haliey up to Snowbird a few years ago. Which by the way is super fun. It costs $5 for the whole day and they have a hill set aside so you can go fast but won’t chance falling off the side of the mountain or anything. You should try it sometime. Anyway, Rob bought me an inner tube a while ago and we haven’t had the time to use it. So today was the day. We spent like 15 minutes blowing the thing up. It was a pain but it was worth it. Or so we thought. Little did we know the second yes second time of sledding down the hill I would slide over some ice or something and come to a screeching halt. Not to mention when I turned the tube over there was the biggest hole I have ever seen in a tube. My friends were nice enough to share their tubes with me the rest of the sledding adventure. When I got home, I bought the news to Rob gently. He didn't take it bad at all. He just laughed.

Rob's Train


I have to admit I fell into the act of impulse buying this passed Christmas season. While I was at the Park City outlets looking for amazing day after Thanksgiving deals, my friends and I came across some toy trains. Rob and I have been talking about getting a train to put under the Christmas tree for years and it didn't seem like something that was going to happen in the near future. Then I found this one. The train isn't fancy by all means but as you can see by the look on my cute husband's face he doesn't mind. He got a train for Christmas! However, like so many other people on Christmas day I forgot to by batteries. Poor Rob couldn't play with his train on Christmas. I blame it on the fact that I am not a mother yet and am not used to thinking of having to have batteries on Christmas day. So to make up for my big mistake I went and bought batteries as soon as I woke up the very next day. Rob didn't waste anytime. I am glad he likes it so much! Merry Christmas Rob!
