Flowers from Romantic John

John received several invitations from people to carpool to the Priesthood Session of General Conference this past Saturday. I should have known something was up when he turned down ice cream with his Uncle! He did it so he could bring me a beautiful bouquet of flowers on his way home! It was kind of cute...I was at John's house making dinner while he was gone, and he stuck his head in the door instead of walking in. I gave him a big old hug before realizing what he had in his hand. I assumed they were for me...WOW! He is always so thoughtful and considerate. I love flowers, and I love being thought of! I will be his wife in just 18 days!

25 Days to Wedding Time!

I am just so excited to be John Weir's wife! We are talking just over three weeks, and I can hardly wait! He is such an incredible man. I am only able to spend a few days a week with him when I am home for the weekend, but I am able to feel closer to him after each and every time we are together. I just get all mushy when I think about it. He treats me so well. It seems his every concern is about me, and he is always striving to make me happy. I just get all weak in the knees thinking about becoming his wife. I want to be good to him and grow with him. In case it wasn't obvious, I really like him! I know we are going to be very happy together because we look out for each other. He is one lucky man, and I feel I am just as lucky!

Date Night

Since our time together is so short on the weekends, my man always tries to make the time special. This past weekend was no different, since he reserved us tickets at Theater 168 to watch the clean improv group, Jesterz. Before heading there, he surprised me by taking me to Cafe Rio (one of my favorite places but not one of his). As we were walking up to the entrance of the restaurant, I commented about how I always feel surrounded by LDS people in Cafe Rio. As we walked through the door, I saw my good friend Cassie Herbst and her husband, Joseph! What a treat! Last August, Cassie went to Cancun with me and my sister, T'liese. We are all now either engaged or married! We were able to eat with Cassie and Joseph and have a blast recalling all the good ol' days. They were headed to watch a show at Hale Center Theater, one of our date locations as well. After we finished eating, we picked up friends of John from basketball, an awesome couple. Adam and Leticia have two small boys at home, but they were left with the babysitter for the evening. We drove up to Scottsdale to the theater (http://www.theater168.com/) in the Papago Plaza Mall. The place was packed, and we enjoyed 90 minutes of wonderful comedy from five clean improv professionals. It was hilarious! After the show, we drove to a place in downtown Scottsdale called The Sugar Bowl, per Adam's recommendation. It was yummy and the conversation was great! We dropped them off at their house and were home by 11:00. What a fun night!
