Anniversary Weekend

Yesterday I was talking to my sister, Jen, on the phone (big surprise, I know... I talk to my sisters everyday, so get off my back). Anyway, we were talking about the upcoming weekend, and I mentioned it's our 1 yr anniv. She one-upped me and reminded me that yesterday was her and Dustins 1 yr of their engagement! That brought back a bunch of memories. The night that Collin and I flew in to Colorado, Jen and Dustin came through the door just minutes after we arrived. They surprised us with the great news.

I remember a couple of people asking me how I felt about that; if I felt like they were raining on our parade and stealing the spotlight. A) That's absurd. Of course I love spotlights, but they're usually big enough for a couple people. 2) We were lucky the weather was awesome and there was no rain. So the parade was still perfect. and D) We felt GREAT about them getting engaged!

**So here's to you, Jen and Dustin! And to your little peanut! They just got back from a dream vaca to New Zealand and Australia and I can't wait to hear and see more about it.**

This weekend, neither Collin nor I have to work, which is a blessing. We are going to dinner at our favorite fancy restaurant in Logan (Elements... we went there for Collins Bday, New Years, and pretty much any excuse for a "special occasion") and we're going to stay at the Marriott here in town. Exotic, I know. It's no trip to Costa Rica (like we'd kinda planned for the spring), but we're going to Africa. Obviously. I've pretty much run this one to the ground, but it's cool enough to milk for the rest of 2010. Maybe even 2011.

Anyway. I love Collin. A lot.
