Wonderful Wonderful!

This weekend was kickin! There were so many things that were wonderful and made me so happy!!!!!

On Friday, Brandon and I were able to go help out a friend with one of her final projects for a photography class! We got to be models for birthday cards with cakes and stuff. It was really fun and we got free cake out of it! And though I am on a diet, I don't count the cake that I ate cause I was helping a friend! Then, Brandon and I went to subway and I got a turkey sandwich with no cheese and no dressings. It was yummy, but I have never realized how much of a difference cheese makes on a sandwich. Brandon played improv with OTW that night and the show was SUPER funny! I was proud of my baby. He's a hottie!












Saturday morning I weighed myself and despite the cake I ate (which didn't count anyway!) I have lost 7 pounds! I am so excited! Eating healthy and taking time to be a little more active than usual really does help. I'm excited to see what happens to my weight when I start my vigorous work outs that I have planned for the summer!!!! We took time that day to go to the Salt Lake temple with my grandma and my cousin who lives in Tennessee! It was so good to see him and to spend time with him and grandma. It was a lot of fun. The Salt Lake temple is AMAZINGLY GORGEOUS. I have heard that it is beautiful but I didn't know that it was THAT beautiful on the inside. Such a wonderful experience. Grandma, Brandon, and I made a goal to do a session in every single temple in Utah! I'm excited to complete that goal! I've already got 3 down. Only 11 more to go? I think it's 11... Grandma took us to the Garden Room Restaurant (on the top of the Joseph Smith Building) and treated us to lunch. It was SO YUMMY. Seriously. I had a really yummy shrimp and strawberry salad. Very yummy.


Also, on Saturday, we had our Paro-Glee show for OTW in Draper. It was sooooo much fun! Even though the show in Ogden was fantastic and super fun and funny this show was even better!!! So much fun! And we got some really yummy popcorn afterwards. It was a super fun performance and just a good time all around. We went to Village Inn afterwards and I only ate some left overs of someone's pancakes so I felt ok about it. I was hungry!

Sunday was, in a word, wonderful. Just a super relaxing, fun, easy going day with my sweetheart. We went to church, came home, made lunch, took a shower, took a long nap (which was much needed since we were out until 3:00 am the night before) made some dinner, went on a walk, then relaxed outside on the porch and enjoyed the rest of the lovely evening. When it got to dark and cold to sit outside anymore we watched a movie: Megamind! So funny. I love that movie. It was such a wonderful day. Brandon makes me so happy. We don't have to do crazy expensive things to have a good time, just being together is enough. I love it.

I have also registered for Summer 2011 and Fall 2011 semesters! I'm excited about summer semester because I am taking 2 physical education classes (so I am going to be SKINNY!) and the rest of my generals! So by the end of the summer I will be DONE WITH MY GENERAL EDUCATION CLASSES! Praise heaven! I'm so excited. Associates Degree here I come! I am taking 12 credits this summer and around 17 credits this fall. The fall classes are all Theater and Business classes. It's gonna be super hard to buckle down and get it done, but super worth it. I know that I can do it! I'm so ready to just get it all done :)

On a less happy note, I have acquired some kind of cold. I am super congested and my throat feels a little tight and swollen. Yay, my favorite. Hopefully it was pass quickly so that I can get on with my summer without feeling like crap. Also, it is finals week... Blah... It's almost done though. Almost done... Just hold on a little longer!!!!! I really hope I pass my sociology class..... I'm really nervous that I am not going to pass it. But I hope I am!
