Update- 1 year & California Vacay

January 19th of 2012, Nick and I went on our first date! He took me to dinner and then to the Jazz game. The rest is history! :) When we found out that the Jazz were playing at home on January 19 of this year, we HAD to go. (We're both cheesy and sentimental about that kind of stuff) We went to dinner at the Melting Pot and then headed to the Jazz game. It was so fun reminiscing about the past year and to think that exactly 1 year ago that night, we had our very first date. Who would have thought that 1 year ago I would have found my best friend and soulmate?!! Life is good! SO good!!!!

This past weekend, we took a trip to California to get out of the cold and to visit the Bello's. We left the below freezing temperatures (Oh, and let's not forget about the nasty ice storm we had the day we left that temporarily shut down the airport. Luckily our flight was only delayed an hour) and arrived in sunny California. The weather was beautiful all weekend long! The sun was shining and we had 60+ degree weather the whole time we were there.

Friday we went into San Francisco. We went to Alcatraz and then had lunch on the pier. I took a total of maybe 5 pictures the whole trip. My mom, the photographer, will be so disappointed. 

Saturday Rylee and I went on our annual "girls date" and got pedicures while Nick helped Vail out running a couple errands. Saturday night, we went to the Dunham School Crab Feed! We got crabs ;) and had a lot of fun! 

Sunday we went out to Truett Hurst Winery, where Nick proposed to me last summer! They people there even remembered us!!! We sat by the river (the exact spot Nick proposed), walked around a bit and then headed to another winery. 



I realized I am in need of some serious sunshine!!!



We got home Monday to a driveway full of snow and temperature half of what it was in California. Needless to say, I've been pouting since we left the Bello's house Monday morning.  

It was great to get away, and it WOULD be great to be home IF the snow stayed in the mountains and left the valley alone. I wish I could say that we have another trip planned soon, buuutttt we don't.
