Our stake has a big Valentines party every year and I guess it just gets more and more popular each year. The theme this year was "An evening in Paris."
Us , The Brians and The Nyes
The Coopers were chauffering and photographing
Well you can't really tell but this is a big old limo. Have you ever been picked up for a ward party (stake, actually) in a limousine? By the bishopric? Yes, we have connections. My BFF (as Jami calls her), Natalie, happens to be married to the Bishop. A fact that makes Jay a little nervous :) something about what might come his way. I, on the other hand, can't imagine anything more terrifying than what I am doing, RS teacher. The Coopers bought this sweet limo for just such occasions like this and prom and taking the deacons to the cannery. I feel like a loser not owning a limo myself. If I can find another one for $600 I might! The ride included a chocolate rose for the sistahs, too. Nothing says Valentines Day like a chocolate rose!
Me, Jay, Bishop Brian and Natalie
Natalie and I started walking together last year, but when she started running and training for marathons, I couldn't keep up. I am just not that dedicated, I always had some excuse or ache or pain. So now we just go to lunch, and movies and the Temple. We are the same age, our husbands are the same age, we both have 5 children, we both think we can still shop at the Buckle:). She is just so much fun!

Is she the one you went to womans conference last year with? Don't you love it when you find a BFF where you live? Looks like an extremely fun night for you guys.
wow, both of us visiting foreign countries at the same time... Actually, you don't have to go through customs, so your trip was probably more relaxing...although, there have been no throwing up kids here, so maybe not...
I am so sad me and Nate had to miss this! I LOVE your pink shirt. And you absolutely can still shop at the Buckle :) I will let you know if there is a time you need to stop ha ha
There is nothing quite like a walking buddy. Even if you stop walking you will be BFF. She seems just awesome and I love the forwards you get from her and send to me. Watch our Jay.
