lately

Last week before we went on vacation was J's last day at UPS. He now works at BYU. But there is something different.

We have nights together! We have had so much fun this week doing various things. We are taking advantage of this week and next before school starts and basically packing a whole summer into them.

J said something last night that made me really happy. He said, "We haven't laughed this much in a while, I love laughing with you". 

It's so true! We have only been able to spend an hour before bed time together and then sleep for the past year. It is WONDERFUL to be able to have more time in the day for each other.

So far this is what we have done this week.

MONDAY
We planned on going to Olive Garden and a movie, but Olive Garden was temporarily closed. We went to Terra Mia instead and then went to "Jobs" at the movie theater. We liked it.

TUESDAY
Nothing too glamorous. We went to Kneaders and then grocery shopping... TOGETHER! Then came home and finished the current TV series we've been watching the last four months... Friends.

WEDNESDAY
We went to Olive Garden to make up for Monday and to have the never ending pasta bowl. It was chaos. After spending 2.5 hours there, our waiter felt so bad that he gave us 4 extra bowls of pasta to take home! Talk about taking advantage of the system! It was great to sit and talk with each other though, so we didn't mind. Even if we did get a little rambunctious playing salt packet football. Whoops. 

THURSDAY
Needless to say we ate Olive Garden left overs for dinner and then headed up the canyon to play card games at "our park" Canyon Glen. It was SO much fun! Unfortunately the storm rolled in so we couldn't star gaze, so we headed home and got Slurpee's at the new 7 Eleven by our house. That place will kill us.

I can't wait for the next 11 days! It's almost like a "stay-cation"! We have saved up some good money to be able to do this. {haven't really gone on a date all summer long, weekends were just too busy}

Love making up for lost time! :)

Also, I promise I'll get better at taking pictures. Ha ha.
