a GREAT weekend

This weekend Brandon and I went up to Arlington to stay with Grandma Beth. It was a fun weekend. On Friday Grandma Beth and I went out to lunch at Arby's and then shopping at Target while Brandon was at work. That evening we had a great surprise from Brandon when he got home. He bought us both some beautiful flowers for Valentine's Day. Grandma kept saying how beautiful her lilies were. I absolutely loved my roses...this is the first time since we got engaged that Brandon has given me flowers and being the huge Bachelor fan that I am I told him I felt like I had been to a dozen rose ceremonies and that he must really love me. Saturday night we all went out to dinner at the Eaglecrest Restaurant. Sunday we got up early and went to our ward in Redmond and then drove around to look at a few condos for sale in Issaquah. I had a great time this weekend talking and getting to know Grandma Beth better! Thanks for hanging out with us!

Wow Karen! What a great wife you are to spend you first married V-Day w/ your Grandmother-in-law. I love the Bachelor too! Who's your pick? Melissa or Molly. I was shocked he got rid of Jillian, and I'm wondering if Melissa's parents did her in.
