Ever since I can remember, valentines day has been one of my favorite holidays.I just love love. And I am so happy we have an entire day to celebrate it! I had been telling Kody a little bit about how I have missed my Arizona desert and sunshine, and he surprised me with a little piece of home, and lots of chocolate. Who wants flowers when you can have a cute little baby cactus? :) 

I made him a man bouquet (a broquet), filled with junk food and all kinds of many things.

It was a good day.

After a long week, it's really fun to just go out with these fun roommates of mine. 

Also, shout out to Megan for successfully taking a selfie with all 6 of us in it. 

First there was a ward party {a.k.a free food}. 

Then we had to stop by the Museum of Art and look at the beautiful Sacred Gifts Carl Bloch paintings exhibit. If you are anywhere near Provo, you should definitely check it out. 

Then we came home and watched Shutter Island, because none of us had seen it before, and you can never go wrong with a Leonardo DiCaprio movie. 

Living with some of your best friends is so much fun, and I just love it.

You guys, where on earth did January go?
Life lately has consisted of all sorts of great things, including...

...going to this beautiful place...

Late-night wal-mart/in n out trips, chocolate train rides, Utah Jazz games, ice skating, eating Mexican food, staying up too late, watching the Office and all kinds of other fun things with this guy ^. He is pretty dang awesome...

...partying hard with my crazy roommates who are some of the funnest girls around...


planning BYU's club fair called "Involvapalooza" and making advertisements for it. It was lots of fun but I am very relieved to be done with it :)

...lots and lots of missing my sweet family, especially this cute lady. but I call her everyday so it's cool...

Walking around in this, and sometimes wishing that I was back in Phoenix where it was 80 degrees the other day (not fair)...

All in all, life is pretty dang good right now.
Don't get me wrong, things still get hard and sometimes I feel like blogs make some peoples lives look like everything is always awesome all the time. Hard days come around every once in a while, but overall I am just absolutely loving life right now.

Time to start getting back in the regular blogging routine.
Happy February!
