Pillow Talk


I've been wanting to make pillow covers for the longest time and finally got around to it. I think they turned out pretty good! I'm not sure if I like having different patterns on the same couch...I'm a very symmetric person...maybe it will grow on me...we'll see....but for now i just have to look at one half of the couch at a time! : )

Jackpots and Prizes!

For Valentines day Ceri & John and Matt & I doubled. We had a went out to the Oliver Garden (hello long wait!!! good news that it's right by the mall so we shopped around while we waited) and then it was off to Peter Piper Pizza for some games. Ceri and John have a tradition to go on Valentines and invited us to tag along...and I must say...Peter Piper is where its at! We had a blast!

(Don't mind the fuzzy pictures...I took them with my phone)
Matt won the Jackpot....not only once....but twice
The Gough's winnings....a giganitic pixi stick, glitter braclet, and sweat band - awesome!
We made away with a helicopter (unfortunately it died in the parking lot shortly after Matt openend it...bummer), a slinky, and glitter braclet...again...awesome!

The Birthday

The evening started by taking a nice late afternoon nap before all the festivities....don't they look so sweet?
Then we all hopped in the Corriveau family van and headed over to Joe's BBQ....YUM!


Joe's did not disappoint!!! Great food AND a Balloon lady!!!
(i guess she used to be in university 5th ward so it was a kind of reunion for Adam and the Gough's!)
oooah...a birthday saber!
A gigantic flower!...perfect for static hair!!!!
And for cheesy pictures!
The birthday boy
Did I mention the food was good?

After Joe's we headed back to our Apartment for some cake and presents.
The traditional cake blowing:



In the box: a variety of Little Debbie sweets and a dozen Jumex drinks....all the things we rarely buy at the store : ) What a Happy Matt!!!

The gift that's on it's way....a Mac Mini!!!

A few months ago our computer pooped out on us - so we've been borrowing my parent's 2nd computer (thanks mom and dad!!!!) Now in just a while longer we can return their computer and enjoy our own again!!! yeah!
Happy Birthay Matt!!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!!!
