Catching up!

I noticed that I have not put up any recent posts and realized that I am doing what I hate! So I have a lot to catch up on... One of my closest friends and old roommates had a baby shower last week and it was so much fun! I don't know why but for some reason I just love all the games at baby showers and bridal showers. Rebekah just is so cute pregnant! She is due in 5 weeks and I cant wait to see that little guy.

Also as everyone knows this week was Valentines. This holiday just always makes me happy. I have not had a Valentine since I have lived in Utah but I still always celebrated Valentines day with the girls, brownie mix, and a good movie, but this year I did have my Valentine :) I was so excited, so the morning of, I woke up and while Chase was at school I put a basket of goodies on his bed. I had school all day and he had school and work so we would not see each other till nine at night for his basketball game so I wanted to give him something he would have all day. I was kind of sad because we would not see each other but everything changed when I went home. I swear I have the most creative fiance in the world! He decorated my room with roses and balloons and made a little body of him out of a trash can and balloons so he could be with me while he was away! I just loved it! He also got me some cute shoes and great chic flicks.. It was a great day! After his basketball game he surprised me again with a heart shape pizza. All I can say is how much I love Chase and how lucky I am!

The next day Chase and I were off to California to take engagement pictures. We had so much fun hanging out with the fam and seeing my old roommate Tori and her husband Joe and little Max! They just moved into where my sister lives so now I can see them every time I come home! It was an eventful weekend filled with cake testing, meeting with the bands, registering, but it was all so fun! Chase and I especially loved the cake testing part :) Here is the Fam and Kobes for dinner.. Our Chief The ones who started it all :) Sarge and UB aka Mom and Dad Haws tickling Grandma
Brad and pregnant little Mrs Kori ( Chase and I are both expecting two additions to our family.. Kori is pregnant and so is Chase's sister Lindsay, they are both due in August!) I love this food!

We had fun with all of you and miss you already!!!!

Dana what a fun post. That was was so incredibly cute and romantic of Chase. He does have excellent style and he looks like he is off to a great start of spoiling you.
I really enjoyed all the pictures of your family. My parents are at your house as I am type and I am SO Jealous. It sounds like your parents are giving them the red carpet treatment and they have all of us hicks back here in Vernal completely jealous. YOu have such a fun family and I'm so grateful our parents have fostered the freindship for so many years.
Good luck with all the wedding plans. What an incredible time in your life. Love ya!

Hey Dana! I am so sad you weren't there in LA the same weekend we were :) I would love to catch up with you sometime. How cute is Chase to do that for you for Valentines. Hilarious actually! You all seemed to have married (or are going to marry) incredible people. Miss you all so much!

That IS an amazing coincidence! I LOVE Sound of Music, best movie ever!!!! How are wedding plans going? Isn't being engaged so weird? its like all this planning and you're just so done NOT being married....you're like to the point of eloping! ahh, but you'll love being married, its so fun. And I'm proud youre marrying a man thats in construction management! (my hubby is too!)
