Date Night

Last night Mark and I went on a very fun date. First, we ate dinner at the deli at Sundance. It was delicious. We both got the Turkey-Bacon-Avocado sandwich, except I got a half, and I got the tortilla soup. Once we were done, we headed back to our car to get our jackets because it was getting cold! Then we drove up to find a trail that Brent told us about. We couldn't find it though so we just decided to park somewhere and walk around. We got out and started walking and right in front of us was the trail! We started hiking up and the view was just beautiful. Fall is just starting here in Provo, but the trees on the mountains are already turning all shades of yellow and red. We only went about half way up, but the point we stopped out had a gorgeous view. It was definitely a wonderful date night :)

Birthday

Last weekend was my 20th birthday. I'll admit that it's one of my favorite holidays and that, maybe, I reminded Mark about it for a few months prior. He would never forget though, he loves to spoil me. I woke up last Saturday to birthday decorations in the living room and all my presents from Mark on the couch. He got me a couple of cute little things, but the big ones-and my favorites, were a pink mixer for baking and blue vintage boots! I don't have any pictures of them yet, but I bet I will soon. Both things caught me by surprise because they were things I had mentioned wanting, but I hadn't talked about in a while. The best part of the whole day was that it was the first Saturday that Mark didn't have to work in a couple of months. I loved loved loved getting to spend the whole weekend with him. We got a cake from Coldstone and then we went to Chili's (my sweet in-laws sent me a gift card). Mostly though, we just stayed in and watched conference and spent time together. And while Mark went to Priesthood session, my good friend Abby took me out for a treat and gave me the most adorable scarf. It was a perfect birthday. Thanks everybody!

A great way to spend your Saturday..
