Monday I had lunch with Alex and I worked until 6:30 or so; my good friend Katie stopped by for dinner with her son Kaden [what a DOLL!] and her mom. It was so nice to see friends from California. Katie and I were such good friends in high school, I had the best abs of my life from all the laughing we did. I think I laughed so hard I cried at least every other day. Oh good times.
Tuesday Alex came over after work and we watched Walk the Line. I started waking up to the soundtrack last week and have been wanting to watch it ever since. I had been waking up to Christmas music since November, I thought it was time for a change. Seriously, try waking up to Feliz Navidad and tell me you're not in a good mood and ready for the day. I dare you.
Wednesday Alex and I went to dinner at Costco for a chicken bake and chicken salad then over to the rec center to jog around the track and go swimming. Fun fun. He's the first guy I'm not embarrassed to be seen in a bathing suit around. I don't know if I'm just more comfortable with my body or him.
Thursday we went to Michaels where we picked out some yarn and a pattern to crochet a blanket. Have I told you all that he crochets? He had it hidden in the corner of his living room and I asked him what it was, he was so embarrassed. It is just so endearing that he does that. He has made the blankets that his nephews and niece were blessed in [actually, he makes the blankets and about halfway done someone announces they're pregnant - he's magical]. So we're doing a blanket that we can each work on a square then we'll sew together into a big blanket. Nice huh.
Friday we're going to Desert Star playhouse for a melodrama, Pirates of the Car-Rib-EEE-An. It should be a rip-roaring good time. I'm taking the camera so hopefully we can finish off the last 8 pictures on the disposable camera and we can get them developed. I promise if there are any decent ones I'll post them so you can all see what he looks like. I think we look pretty good together.
Saturday I'm going to get a pedicure with my not-Davis-anymore girls [when I first started going to the singles ward I had to give adjectives to my different friends so my parents could keep them straight, they were my Davis girls because they lived on Davis Blvd, but have since moved]; the 3 of us are going to Disneyland next Tuesday and need to have our toenails done for all the sandal wearing we plan on doing. I think I might need to get some new walking shorts too, I think mine are all 4 sizes too big now. Hmmm that could be a problem. Anyway, that night Alex and I are making dinner then going to Stake Conference.
Sunday is Stake Conference, we're going with my parents, then laze around the rest of the day crocheting. There's also a birthday party at 6:30 for a friend [talk about awkward, she wanted to date Alex, but I won] and a YSA dinner mingle at 7.
Phew, it's a lot of little stuff going on but nothing huge, except for the melodrama.
Fabulously fun and packed week.

Yes, pictures please!! So fun that you got to see Katie and Kaden! We stopped and saw them in TO back in August. You know I have some pretty incriminating photos of you and Katie during HS... Maybe I'll just tuck those away for some other time. ;)
And crocheting? I don't even know how to crochet! That's awesome!
Have fun at DinneyYand! Travel safe!
I don't think I've ever known a guy who crochets....
It was SOOO great seeing you (and your parents)! Thanks for the quick little stroll down memory lane. So happy for you and your happiness!
PS..I would LOVE the recipe to that chicken salad stuff we had for dinner. MMmmm...I've been thinking about it. :)
