Well I have a new found appreciation for Friday's. I went back to work this past Monday and I now greatly anticipate Fridays!  I have really loved my job so far so it isn't pulling teeth to get through the week but Friday means that I get to go to bed late and sleep in!!!

Last week was our two year anniversary.  Brian was working so for our anniversary dinner we went to a taco business dinner.  We figured we would celebrate at a later date.  I got a food saver!  We both thought it would fun to try and really help prolong our food storage.  We are really trying to get our year supply of everything so it will be nice.

Brian has been in Quebec this week.  He has been to Canada before but this is really his first trip where there has been language barrier. EVERYONE speaks French and he can't understand a word.  His first experience trying to go to a restaurant where everything was in a different language must have been traumatic enough that he went to Walmart and bought a weeks worth of food ha!

I have not got in to politics at all.  Actually, to tell you the truth, I hate political talk.  But Brian said he watched Ann Romney's speech last night and that I should watch it.  Well that is what I did.

She is such a classy lady.  Even if she wasn't a member of my same faith I think I would still really like her.  She is such a down to earth, great example.  I really enjoyed some of the things she said.  Since when is being successful a bad thing?  I don't think that success is a measure of how many dollar bills you have.  We can have so much success in so many other ways!  I have actually been thinking a lot about this lately.  We can have success in so many aspects of our life beside money!  Since when is it bad to serve others?  Like I said, I don't follow politics but I have seen several headlines regarding Mitt Romney and his service and charity distributions.  Regardless of what religion you are, when did it become a negative to serve and to give to the less fortunate.  In the Book of Mormon it tells us over and over that we are to give of our substance and clothe and feed those that are in need. Kind of random, but those were a couple of thoughts I have after watching.

My sweet Brian likes to surprise me with flowers.  He actually does it quite a lot.  This week was another one of those days.  Like I mentioned before, he had work all last week and is gone this week.... actually he will be gone a LOT this coming month!  Anyways... he wanted to leave me with a surprise before he left.  I think they are quite beautiful! Thanks Brian!!

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY.... tomorrow is GAME DAY!!!!
I have to wish all of my boys the best of luck and I wish I could be there with you!
GO BRONCOS!!!!!!!
