Valentine's Day ♥

Sorry I'm a week behind on posting! I've been super busy because...I have a boyfriend now! (as you all already know) :) Grant and I made it official! We spend a lot of time together, and when we're not together, I'm doing homework or hanging out with other friends. Since Friday was Valentine's Day, Grant gave me a beautiful rose and some chocolates. Here it is:

Grant had been planning a surprise for Saturday, so we didn't do anything particularly special on Friday. We played some pool, had dinner together, went to a fun arcade called Nickel City, and watched a movie. At the arcade, we won tons of tickets and Grant let me pick out a prize. I got this cute bear (or is it a mouse...?):

On Saturday, Maria, Clark, Will, Rosie, and Addie came to visit me in Provo! We went swimming at the rec center and then we picked up Grant and went to Chick-Fil-A for lunch. It was so nice of them to come visit and it meant the world to me :) Unfortunately, I did not take any pictures.

On Saturday night for his big surprise, Grant took me to an on-campus event called Big Band Night. It was a fancy thing where they served us dinner and then had the BYU Synthesis band perform 1940's-style music that was kind of like jazz/swing. Everyone was dressed up nice and danced to the band's live music. We had a really good time and we somehow ended up being the only ones at our table even though each one seated about 10 people! We got pretty lucky :)

Funny story: Grant and I are in the same Spanish class, and our teacher always starts class off by asking if anyone has "juicy news." On Friday, I showed her the flower Grant gave me. However, she doesn't know we're dating and I didn't tell her that it was from him, so when I showed her the rose and told her that a boy gave it to me, she said "tell him I'm very proud of him!" Grant and I were trying not to laugh, and he was tempted to say "gracias!"

I hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day! :)

Oh, and by the way, they did take some photos of us at Big Band Night, but they're not up on Facebook yet. Once they are, I'll post them on here!
