Happy Valentine's Day Weekend!

This last weekend I went to Provo. My friend Amber was flying in from OK and photographing a wedding and she invited me to come assist her. It was super fun to spend my Valentine's day with her!
The wedding was at the Jordan River temple
We had a lot of fun visiting and catching up. Amber and I served in Taiwan together and although we never were companions, we somehow just clicked. We laughed and talked and got Jamba Juice and made books!
Deborah is taking this bookbinding class at BYU and has been so excited about the paper she has been making and the things she has been learning. We got to go into the special building on campus and see all the materials and tools they use to make books. We made coptic bound books and they turned out quite well! I'm going to use mine for a special affirmation journal. It was just fun to be creative!

It was great to see all the old friends from the ward but the best part of Sunday was the cousins dinner at Joseph's! The theme was Chinese food and we had quite the spread. I laughed so hard I left with both my cheeks and stomach sore. I am so lucky to have such wonderful cousins. I miss spending time with them. The conversation ranged from pregnancy to dating to spotlights. Lots of laughs. There were some important cousins missing-namely Mitchell. We called him on the phone so he could be a part of it. Good times. 

Monday morning I went shopping with Deb and roommate. It was great to have girls to go shopping with again! Here in Logan I have learned to go without anyone to affirm my chosen outfit or provide important opinions when shopping! :) Monday afternoon I made the easy drive back to Logan. So that was my weekend! Fun to have a day off and time with great friends! Happy President's Day!
