I think we had a really great time this year. Since we dont have any kids, we could kinda do what we wanted. So I got Sam a massage for friday night, then after we went to PF Changs. That was my first time there, and boy was it delicious! After, we just came home and watched a movie from Red Box. On Saturday we woke up and my mom came down stairs and she brought in this huge vase full of flowers. Take a look...
She stressed to me that they werent from her. So I read the card, and they were from my sweet husband! What a sweet heart. Yes, ladies and gentlemen this is 12 pink roses and 12 star gazer lilies! my two favorite flowers!! I love you honey! We went to go see my little brother kick some butt at his basketball game. And then I made waffles (for the first time mind you) for Sam. I wanted to cook something for him. They turned out really good! I was so excited. After that, we just cleaned the house. Then we went to get a small dinner at Training Table, we didnt want to spend much because we went out to PF Changs. Then we went to a dollar movie. It was the best date. Every one and there grandma went to the dollar movies that night too. Good thing we got in line about 25 min early!! We went to see 7 pounds with Will Smith. If you havent seen that movie yet, I think you really should. It was so touching and a great show!
And That was our Valentines Day. We spread it out for like two days. Oh PS if you live in Utah County, or you dont mind driving there, we have this friend that seriously is the BEST at doing massages! so let me know if you want her number. She does it out of her parents house, and it is just there in American Fork. And I would recommend her to anyone.
I hope that everyone else had a great Valentines Day! Love you all!!!

SUpeRBowL SuNdAy!!!
If you know my husband very well, you know that Sam lives for football. Whether he is playing, or college games, or NFL, or a pick up game in the rain. ALL OF IT. He can talk about it forever. So of course, superbowl sunday is like the best day ever for him. Its a party all for football! So I had gone shopping for so much food to make. There was foot-long sandwhiches, there were chicken tenders, there was bean dip and drinks. Plus a lot more. Just look below. Sam is usually a Steeler's fan, (also they are kinda our name sake) and he has loved them forever. And I am originally from Mesa Arizona, and so I had to go for the Cardinals. And sam actually decided to go for the underdogs. He mostly just hoped for a REALLY good game. Which you all can agree, it was a very good game. Anyway, We are sad the Cards lost, but really happy the Steeler's won! Here is some pictures.

Bob MarLey's BiRthDAy!!!
So this weekend it Bob Marley's birthday. And if you know anything about us, we love Bob Marley. He was born on Feb 6th, and that would be this friday. He passed away on May 11th, of cancer. His last words were to his son Ziggy, and they were "Money can't buy life!" I think that is so true. One thing that he said, that I think is so true, becuase it will be my children's life, "I don't have prejudice against meself. My father was a white and my mother was black. Them call me half-caste or whatever. Me don't dip on nobody's side. Me don't dip on the black man's side nor the white man's side. Me dip on God's side, the one who create me and cause me to come from black and white."
He was born to a white father and a black mother. And my children will be born to a white mother and a brown father, and I have been wondering what my children will think about that. And so that was good to hear Bob's stand on things.
Some of our friends are "playing tribute" to him this friday at a club in park city, called Harry O's. on Friday Feb 6th. The band is Natural Root's. All is welcome to come at hear Reggae music and celebrate Bob Marley's life.
To hear some of the songs, just go to there myspace page. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=54936874

What we've been up to!
We have been kinda busy around here. Sam was working up at sundance, and he was able to meet a few stars! That was pretty cool, but there wasnt that many up there this year. Alot of them were boycotting utah because of our stand on prop 8. So that was pretty sad, and quite a few were up at Obama's inaguration, and inaguration parties! So Sam was working nights, he worked from 5 pm until 6 or 630 am, and then he would sleep from 7 ish till 230. Then he would grab a bit to eat and get ready for the day up at sundance. So I saw him for probably 1 1/2 hours a day, then he'd leave about 4 to drive up there. So I didn't get to see my husband very much. And then since he worked so much, his immune system got so bad, he got the flu! And he was so sick! He still isnt very well! So that is what we have been up to!
