Valentines Day!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!! Yes, this post is about a week later, but with work and the joys of life, this was the soonest I could make a post. Anyhow, Jackson and I celebrated Valentines day on Monday the 13th since I had to work Tuesday the 14th. So first off we went to go see the movie "The Vow". Jackson's not much into chick flicks, but he was nice enough to go with me to "The Vow" for Valentines day. It was a great movie and had a good ending, but in my opinion, the ending could have been way better, still good though. So that was fun! Than I had a surprise in store for him!

Jackson loves "Blue Bell" ice cream! I guess he bought that all the time while he was on his mission in Texas, but they don't have a "Blue Bell" factory that makes that type of ice cream here in Utah or Idaho. So I was using google trying to figure out how to get him some. Well I found this website and soon learned that they sale the actual "Blue Bell" ice cream in Provo Utah!! At first I didn't believe it and feared that it was a myth, but I gave it a shot anyway. So after the movie we drove to Provo (45 minutes away) and sure enough, "Blue Bell" Ice Cream!!! :) I was so excited that it wasn't a myth and that Jackson and I were able to get some. Jackson just instantly lit up and was smiling the whole time from ear to ear!! He was so excited to have the original "Blue Bell" ice cream again since he hasn't had some of that since his mission that ended in 2004! So that was Awesome! A great moment for me to do something extraordinary for him! :)

After that we headed home and bought some pizza from "Papa Murphy's". We had a great day!

So for the actual Valentines day, I had to work from 7 AM-7 PM at the hospital, it was a very long busy stressful day, but I received a great surprise around Noon. Jackson sent me a dozen red roses with a teddy bear, a box of chocolates, and a Valentines day card with a love note!! :) It made me light up and smile! It just made my day!! :) I was so excited to take the flowers home and put them in fresh water with the red vase that came with it! :) The flowers bloomed so beautifully within a few days later after getting some fresh water.

So this was how we celebrated our Valentines Day for this year! Love you Jackson and thanx for the Roses!
