Valentines

So this year was the best Valentines ever. I had no idea what was coming :) We got home from Phoenix Monday evening and I didn't think we would really be going out. So I made a nice dinner for two and got dressed all cute. It was 8:30 and I didn't know when Jake was coming home, I text him and asked if he was going to be home soon. He text me and said yea. He got home and he told me to pack an over night bag. I packed up and he bagged up the dinner. We got to the Casino and I was so happy thinking he got a room. It is just nice to be able to get out and spend some alone time just him and me. We ended up on the top floor, and I followed him to our room. When he opened the door it was to a suite and there were fake flowers, chocolate and candies all over the room. That's why he was late :) It was such a wonderful surprise and I was so happy. The room was amazing and we had such a good evening. I wish it never had to end.


The living room and kitchen :)


Our room, the bed was huge and so comfortable


Our bathroom, the tub was so deep I could swim in it

Our Trip to AZ

For the last three years we have been going to Phoenix to see the Blackhawks.
We have wanted to stay in the same hotel as the players and we saved up so we could this year. We pulled up to the hotel as the players were getting ready to get on the bus. It was perfect timing because we got to meet coach Q, and Sharp. I was able to add to my jersey signatures. Crow and Hossa. It was so much fun to see the players off the ice. We went to the game and had great seats, Row G in the first section so we were pretty close to the glass. Sadly they didn't win but it was still a fun game. I always like going to see them play in person, there is nothing like it. Here's just a few pictures..


They were giving Jeremy Roenick a reward by adding his name to the stadium . (Ring of Honor)







It was so much fun, I can't wait until we get to go next year :)

Changes

So, things have been going well. I have felt welcomed in my classes at church and some of the ladies have gone out of their way to make me feel that. I appreciate them and their effort. It is still hard for me,I know I am not alone going I have Jakes family sitting with me, but I think until he starts to join me I may have to live with that feeling. I know God gives us trials to help us with the things we need to work on. I have been going through some of them, I am glad for them, I'm not going to lie though some I'd rather just not deal with. :)
While we were out of town last weekend I got a call, they are already want to give me a calling, I am excited, and nervous at the same time. I trust our Bishop and our Lord, I just need to find the trust within myself I guess. I would love for it to be in YW, but I am pretty sure it's in primary. I've been in there before and it's fine, I've just changed and not sure that my change works there. Like I said though trust.. :) So that is where I am with church right now, Once I am there I love being there, and I know things will work out :)
