Lagoon with Friends

Ben, our friends Heather and Nate, and I went to Lagoon yesterday. We had a lot of fun. We took a few pictures before entering the park; here are a couple of them.

The Latest

Highlights from this week:

• Ben and I finally kicked it back into gear and started working out again. We made it three days in a row: Tuesday-Thursday. We will try to be more consistent.
• My visiting teachers came Tuesday night. It's nice to be getting to know my new ward better.
• I got out of the office almost all day Wednesday. My supervisor and I attended a social media conference in Salt Lake City. The conference was alright, but even better, I got to see an old classmate from college who I hadn't seen for over four years! It was a very pleasant surprise to see him and catch up a little.
• I bought a pretty ring from Kohl's after work today. Ben occasionally gets these $10 off cards to Kohl's in the mail, and he gives them to me. I didn't have to pay anything for the ring; the card took care of it all!
• Tomorrow, Ben, a couple of our friends, and I are having a mid-morning breakfast together, and then heading off for a day's trip to Lagoon. We plan on doing the regular park AND the water park. Should be fun!

Also, I just heard this song, and really like it: Bliss' Kissing.

Video Central!

My Facebook wall is flooded with random videos. I'll post them here, too.

Looking for Her "Cats"-anova



I think she's probably doing this as a joke, but it's still hilarious!!

High Fiving and For the First Time

I have two videos to share with you! Yay times two! The first is the do's and do not's of high fiving (way funny!), and the second is an acoustic cover of The Script's For the First Time. Love the song. Love the cover.

I'm Feeling Better! And Weekend Plans

I am so happy to report that I am doing a LOT better. I went to instacare on Wednesday. The night before was terrible. I couldn't sleep. My throat killed. I felt nauseous. It was terrible. Ben took me, and they tested me for strep throat, and thank goodness, it came back negative. That day I started feeling better anyway, and have been improving ever since. Right this instant, my throat doesn't hurt at all, but probably will as the day goes on. But it is a vast improvement to what it was.

Ben, too, is feeling a lot better. He had this illness longer and worse than I, but was there for me through my pain and agony. He cooked for me, helped me walk when I was super weak, bought me a single-stem red rose, and much more. I'm so grateful for him.

This weekend proves to be a busy one. Last night, Ben and I had a spontaneous double date with my best friend and her husband. We ate dinner at Costa Vida, went up to a beautiful canyon area, drove up to an amazing view of Bountiful, bought ice cream at the supermarket, and ate it while watching a movie. So fun! Doing a BBQ for lunch today with Ben and another couple.  Then I have a baby shower to go to for Ben's sister-in-law. Need to go to the store later. Also doing a Halo video game tournament tonight with Ben and some of his family and friends. I'll not dominate. In fact, I'll stink. Should be interesting. Ben's been teaching me a little bit here and there, so I just might be able to hold my own for five minutes, but I'm not holding my breath.

Tomorrow's Sunday. Going to church. Also having a get-together with Ben's family and friends tomorrow night.

So glad we're both feeling better so we can get back to normal life and having fun again!

Hope you have a great weekend!
