Valentine's Day

I have always loved Valentine's Day! My mom was so good about making us feel special and thoughtful about giving little gifts like socks or soap. I also love holidays and love so it is a beautiful combination. This year was extra exciting spending it with Bryce. He brought me roses!

He then helped me pick out an outfit because I couldn't decide what to wear before he came over. I ended up loving the outfit because it was cute and comfortable!

We then went to a Mediterranean restaurant in SE Portland. We were kind of late because I totally gave him bad directions. My pride of having a good sense of direction has been hit multiple times since moving to Portland, but this was pretty bad. Luckily, it all worked out. The food was so good with really unique flavors. I got pumpkin raviolis with mushrooms. Probably the best raviolis I have ever eaten!

After a nice dinner, we decided we needed some donuts to complete the meal! I got my favorite, bacon maple bar, and Bryce tried a Voodoo man, which has a raspberry filling.

We then rented Breaking Dawn for a good laugh. I can't believe how ridiculous it was. The acting is just terrible and the lines are even worse. Then it was so choppy and all over the place. I have never seen such a miserable bride on her wedding day and such a misery husband on his honeymoon! Then there were the talking wolves, but I will stop there.

Anyways, I gave Bryce a BYU shirt and made him a card and a big cookie! I got the idea from a German/Austrian tradition when I lived there and thought it would be fun.

Sadly, we didn't take a picture together! I don't know what has happened to me, but I have become terrible at taking pictures. Maybe if I got a new camera that would help:)
