6 months down!

This past weekend Garrick and I celebrated our 6 month anniversary! We weren't planning on doing anything too special, just a group date at BYU with free food and Despicable Me 2. I had signed up a few days before and they told me I was good to go. Well 6 pm we show up at the Wilk and wait in line for a good 10-15 minutes to get our food but when we got to the door we discovered that I had only signed up for the movie, the dinner tickets sold out a week ago. We were frustrated and explained that no one had clarified that with me, they simply said sorry charlie, show up for the movie at 7.

 Feeling rejected we wondered out the door and brain-stormed what we should do until the movie started. We decided that we would just walk to the Creamery and grab a bite and run back to catch the movie! We quickly ran to the creamery and were fortunate not to have a line (there's always a line on the weekends). We ordered and sat at the bar. After 20 minutes of making fun of the waitresses we were getting upset that our food wasn't ready yet Garrick who was pretty ticked off at this point, asked the supervisor about it. No food had been made for us, they had lost our order. 

Frustrated, Garrick simply asked for a refund and we walked out. Garrick gets pretty annoyed with inefficient and  inept people, so after 2 rejections he was fed up with BYU campus and wanted to get a real burger from real workers not byu freshman. It was pretty entertaining watching him get upset. We ditched the movie and started driving to 5 Guys but on our way there I called and they had no veggie options for me. So he had to settle on Smashburger. We get to Smashburger and after waiting around a few minutes Garrick has a great idea of leaving me to order here while he quickly drove to 5 Guys to get his favorite burger. 

Finally we make it home and sit down with our anniversary movie playing, How to Lost a Guy in 10 days (we love that movie), I open my burger and I see beef. Of course this would happen! By the time I discovered this, Garrick had eaten half of his already so I ate fries until he was done and then he ran back to Smashburger for me. He came home with a new burger and our money back. On top of the burger he came home with ice cream and flowers. What a guy! All in all it proved to be an adventure of a night. I'm so grateful for my best friend, we have so much fun. Married life is good. 

Saturday Mornings

Garrick and I have really been enjoying our weekends, they are often filled with anything and everything other than homework, thus making it so great. Each Saturday morning we try to do something with our little brother, Tommas. We've had so much fun going to the library, playing soccer, being outside on the playground, throwing the frisbee, getting donuts and drinking hot chocolate. We've learned so much about him and about interacting with younger kids. It has been so fun for me to watch those two play and see how all boys are the same no matter their age! Garrick is so good with him, I'm so excited to see how great of a father he'll be. Recently we carved pumpkins, introduced him to the world of Harry Potter, and ate delicious pumpkin seeds.
