Pizza Partay

Our really good friends Colman and Carlie and us had an awesome home-made pizza party, here are some pics :)

The best part was that we got to go see 17 Again after dinner! It was so funny, and no I didn't just go to see it b/c it had Zach Effron in it, although that was a plus. Even Dom liked it, and he is SUPER picky about movies.

My Birthday!!

I know this is 2 days late, buuuut I thought Id better share with everyone how my birthday went!

So, it started out with school (yuck, well actually it isn't that bad but who really wants to go to school on their b-day anyways??)

But, then I went and got my hair done! I had them put a ton of blonde highlights in b/c that is how my hair was when dom and I met and I missed it, plus, its going to be summer soon (hopefully... In rexburg it seems like winter all year long), and my hair alway lightens up to almost a blonde (really light brown) not to mention I was getting super bored with my hair.

Then, Dom and I went to Idaho falls and went shopping!!! It's been a while so this was pretty exciting for me :) I ended up getting three super cute shirts, a scarf, a necklace, and a super cute dress (pics to come...)

By the time we were done shopping, we were getting hungry soooo, we decided to go to Johny Carino's (it a lot like olive garden) b/c I had never been there before and Italiana sounded really yummy (although I have been spoiled with real italian food so it might not have been as good now, thanks Dom for spoiling my taste buds!)

So we get there, sit down and after 15 minutes order our food. Then the fire alarm goes off! It keeps going for 15 more minutes, so we decide to leave. Don't worry we didn't dine and ditch, but the noise was so stinking loud that it was ridiculous.

I think the most exciting thing about my b-day was that I GOT A KITCHEN AID!!!!!!! Thanks to mom and pops! I absolutely love it!!!! Yes, I know... suuuper spoiled. (pics of this to come soon too).

It was such a fun day. Thanks to everyone who called to wish me happy birthday! And especially thanks to Dom for sacrificing his time to go shopping (of all things) with me :)!!!

A Night Out

Between studying and working, Domenic hasn't had much spare time to do, well anything really, except study so tonight was a special treat. We decided to kick off General Conference by going out to dinner with some good friends of ours , Carlie and Colman. It has been a while since we have gotten out and a nice juicy burger was sounding really really good so we headed over to Red Robin! Anyways, we had a really good time, and took some goofy pictures. They are of course out of order but I still haven't gotten good enough, or had enough patience to put them into order. anyways, I hope you enjoy them, we had a blast!

What is a picture without dom pulling a goofy face?

Valentines Day!

As promised, here are pictures from our Valentines Day Date! It was so fun to just hang out with Domenic, he is the sweetest guy in the whole world. I love him so much. He made me my favorite dinner, his famous white sauce with mushrooms and onions and fresh pasta of course, such a sweet heart. This is the same dinner he made me last year for valentines day when we were dating. We pretty much tried to re-inact last years v-day date and i think we did a pretty good job.

Yuuuum!!!!

What would valentines day be without sparkling cider and awesome glasses?

The awesome set up, way to go babe! Domenic has some good taste.

Cheers!

These are the goodies Domenic's parents sent us for Valentines day. It was so exciting to get a package (something that doesnt happen very often) we acted just like little kids when we got it and ripped it open! Almond Roca is the best!

Domenic gave me a beautiful red rose, and ENCHANTED!!! I was so excited I jumped up and down and gave him a huge hug which was when he told me that he hadn't actually bought the DVD yet, but was planning on it (this one was his friend's wife's movie). But i was still excited that I get my own someday :)

You know you are a newly wed and in college when the only thing you have to use for wrapping is old Christmas bags. I love it.

Dom would probably kill me if he knew i had posted this picture of him, but i had to because the card is SO cute!

I got him Meet the Robinsons and the Sandlot,two of our favorite movies.

Can you guess what we made for dessert???

Sportin' the aprons

I love my husband! haha he ALWAYS makes me smile.

This is the apron I made with a tremendous amount of help from Domenic's extrememly tallented Mother.

Washing the strawberries

Dipping the strawberries

CHOCOLATE COVERED STRAWBERRIES!!!!

Just a little background info, last year when we were dating, Domenic planned this super cute and romantic valentines date where he actually first told me he loved me :) He was insitant on me not bringing ANYTHING to contribute tothe dinner but i didn't listen and made chocolate covered strawberries for dessert anyways. Well it just so happened that he did the same thing so we had about 2 dozen chocolate covered stawberries. What a coincidence! So we had to made more this yearin memory of our valentines last year.

We had left over chocolate so we decided to make chocolate covered raisins (they tasted just like raisinetts, although we were cracking up becasue I called them craisins instead. Definately the wrong name)

.....And Chocolate Cheesecake(with a homemade graham cracker crust)! So good.

Happy lovers day!

Yup, we are in love.
