Proposal Video

I know a lot of you have read my proposal story, but Logan's talented sister Emily has recently gotten into videography. This is her first recording, put together, video. She's got some serious talent and I'm excited to tag team with her in the upcoming year with photography.  Here's a link to the video. It is 15 minutes long. But it's definitely worth it :)

And the countdown begins

Less than 2 months until I get to marry my best friend.
I know my brother Jared is probably rolling his eyes and making a gagging face at this, but I'll continue anyways.
 Don't worry, none of the pictures posted here or on Facebook are for the announcement; I couldn't ruin the surprise for those ones!
It was fun to take pictures with Logan. He knows me too well. I really wasn't planning on taking a ton, but we did and then some. I apologized to him for that, but he simply told me he knew we would because of the photographer in me.
Thanks Emily (Logan's little sister) for taking them for us!

Right before we took this one (above) he looked at me and said, "We are taking engagements pictures!" And I told him, "This must mean we are getting married."
I'm so excited to marry this boy. He has stolen my heart entirely. 
One quick little story-
April 25, 2012- I took Logan out on a date and when we were in the car, he said something I usually say. I called him out on stealing my saying and he called me out on stealing his yellow light driving game. But he then said, "Maybe you will steal more than that one day." (I wrote that one down so I wouldn't ever forget it)
Yes Logan you were right; I'm stealing your last name.

 He wasn't expecting me to hit him with snow, so when I did, this was his response as I was covered with snow :)
There isn't too much left to do. Plans are coming together. I am not looking forward to typing up all the addresses for announcements, but that is one of the big things left to do. Wedding planning isn't that bad. I think I kind of enjoy it actually. It's been awesome to see things come together for us to start our future together. When we were registering at Target it took awhile, but it was fun because these are things we liked to put in our apartment/home one day. And the countdown will continue for the next two months as we continue to learn to love each other more and try to be the best we can be for one another. Love you Logan!

All things {MERRY & BRIGHT}

Merry Christmas!
Sort of, it's a little late I suppose; better late than never I suppose.

This holiday season I have enjoyed working at American Eagle and helping others find Christmas gifts for people. I finished my Christmas shopping a few weeks ago and I was able to just enjoy these holidays with Logan and family.
The Peterson family had a Griswold Christmas party and yes I will admit I had no idea who the Griswolds were until this. We had dinner, went caroling, and had a white elephant gift exchange. Logan and I made it out good with a Jamba gift card and a Mt. Dew with a cute Christmas glass. Hope those cherry cordials were delicious Davis! :)


Christmas Eve we stayed up late watching the Nativity and then Elf. It was so fun to watch with the little girls as they laughed and laughed. After the movie ended, they set out cookies and milk for Santa hoping that in the morning the glass would be empty, the plate missing cookies, and presents out from Santa.
Christmas morning started early for us as Katelyn and Kylie were up and ready to go at 7:30 in the morning. As the girls went over to the tree, sure enough Santa had come during the night.
If you asked the girls what they wanted from Santa, they always said remote control spiders, and oh Santa is good :)
Christmas Eve
Tarantula- Kylie's spider
The other spider is a wall climbing spider. Gross, I know.
The rest of Christmas consisted of opening presents (I GOT A RED KITCHENAID!!!!!!!!!!!), Christmas breakfast, and having a nice big lunch with the family and Grandpa and Grandma Clark. After lunch, the kids went out to play in the snow and Logan came down. We switched presents and boy... I am one spoiled girl.
Logan is full of surprises and so when it comes to the honeymoon, he has been very secretive. Well, part of present was stuff for it so he told me where we are going. He blindfolded me and had me smell a candle. It was coconut. He asked me what that reminded me of and I said Pina Coladas. Then he had me open my eyes and he gave me chocolates that said...
 HAWAII!!!!!!!
We are cruising to Hawaii...
Yes, I had a slight freakout. And then he put a flower lei on me.
He still had to open his presents and then he told me he had one more surprise for me. I was told to put on shoes and a coat.
He covered my eyes with his hands and walked me outside.
A few months ago I had mentioned in passing how I really wanted a beach cruiser bike with gears, because they are cute and I don't have a bike.
Logan picks up on the smallest things and he acts on them. It all makes sense to me now why he kept taking me past the bikes every time we went to Walmart. Thank you Logan! :)

We finished the night by going to Le Mis with his family. It was good; I cried, a lot. The message of it is inspiring and it is a good one to see just take tissues!
I hope everyone's Christmas was merry and bright and spent with loved ones.
Keep the season alive all year long!!

Right on "Target"

There's a lot of fun things that come with being engaged:
trying to find housing, engagement pictures, registering, and finding out/realizing/understanding how much you really love someone.

So far this week Logan and I have done a lot of housing stuff (it was a little frustrating with the managers being gone, etc). We were going to take pictures, but the weather was a little tough (cross your fingers I will have some to show you by the end of the week). 
But registering.. yes. That happened. And it was hilarious. It was really fun and exciting to look at things to help Logan and I start out together. I've looked at different things before, but to have Logan there holding my hand and letting me know what he likes and doesn't like. We still have to register at Wal-Mart, but I think it will be an adventure and a half for that one!

After taking the first serious one, we tried to take it again because Logan thought he blinked. We couldn't ever get another picture. I could not stop laughing and Logan couldn't stop laughing at me.
I'm excited to marry someone who will laugh at me and my absolute craziness.
Wedding planning is fun and crazy, but it's fantastic when Logan and I let who we are be a part of our wedding. This is one of my favorite things about Logan; he is himself and has been from day one with me. And I have never felt a need to be anything but completely myself. This is why we are wearing tennis shoes for our wedding...
We customized Nike Frees with our colors and topped it off with Mr. Petey and Mrs. Petey on the tongues.

Ok.. One more little sappy moment about Logan. Over the past few weeks I have been reminded over and over again as to why I love him and why he is right on "target" for being the man of my dreams. He notices every little thing I say or mention. One day I let him know I was really craving pancakes. We then went and ate some breakfast for lunch at Me N Stan's in Rigby. It was really good! I ordered pancakes to find out that they were the size of my head or bigger. And because I have a slight obsession and love for anything raspberry he ordered a raspberry milk shake for me :)
Logan makes me laugh more than I ever have. After we registered, we headed over to Chick-fil-A for dinner and we laughed and laughed. He continually puts a smile on my face from his little text messages to his sweet smile and wink that is just for me;
He doesn't get frustrated at me when I sleep through the first 30 minutes of the Hobbit.
And he even let me pull a hair out of his face that was bugging me, that is true love!! 

Enjoy these Christmas days!

A Few Fun Things

The past couple weeks have been filled with some fun times with my nieces and nephews, crafty time, Christmas shopping (I'm all done!!), the business side of photography, and the always wonderful Logan and Michelle time.
Babysitting the boys- playing in the bounce house
Ice cream with the kiddos
I made some rice bags with Carrie thanks to Pinterest. You stick your feet in and it makes them stay even warmer than normal ones. Logan likes his feet to be warm- so do I, especially with future events coming up ;) - so I made one for him out of some awesome blue plaid flannel and baby blue minky. He told me he has already heated up around 20 times and I gave it to him on Wednesday. Here's a link to directions for you to make your own! Super easy and cheap :) You can make 3 when you buy half a yard of each fabric. And PS, we used 4 bags of rice. We left a little slit in the top part and added rice to that one too! 3 bags in the bottom part and 1 in the top part!

One of my favorite things about Christmas is our stockings. My mom made ours and they are HUGE!! Every Christmas Eve we would take them off the banister and put them out in the room where we would want to have them in the morning. For some reason that is one of my favorite memories. I have always wanted to make my own stockings for my own little family. So next year Logan and I will have our very own HUGE stockings to hang up. I'm still working on mine, but I'm using his this year too. It was really fun and I'm excited with how it turned out!

I love photography.
I have been doing it as a "business" for a few years now, but I never knew what I really wanted to name it until recently. Michelle Fowler Photography is now....
I have been working with a graphic designer- Traci Huntsman Design- to get the look I wanted and to make it all professional and things like that. I'm SO pumped about this upcoming year. It's going to be busy and a real good one! And the best part about all of this is that I have a fiance (I love saying that) who is so supportive and excited for me. He loves that I get so excited about it and he is learning the ropes and photography terms too; as we looked through some pictures the other day, he pointed out that a picture had bokeh and I wanted to burst with happiness. Logan really does put me and the things I love in high priority in his life.

BYU-I Fall 2012 semester is over and I couldn't be happier. Logan will now be 15 minutes closer and no homework until April! For those who don't know, I am deferring Winter semester. This will give Logan and I time to finish up all the wedding planning, get married, honeymoon, and start our little married life together before we go back in April. 
Logan helped me practice writing Peterson so I will be prepared to sign that instead of Fowler in a couple months. A few people have asked me how being engaged is; it is wonderful. Being engaged to the right person, knowing you are getting married in the temple, and get to spend the rest of eternity with them is such a good feeling. Every day I do fall more in love with him. I love all the little moments and silly things we do together. I'm just excited to share my life with him :)
Hobbit midnight premiere
Next week we are going to try to conquer all this housing madness, registering, and engagement pictures. It will be quite the week!

Enjoy this holiday season and remember it only is around once a year. Put down the credit cards, shopping bags, and hustle and bustle; simply enjoy the true reason for the season and the loved ones you get to spend it with!!

Hospitals, Kidney Stones, Chocolate Shoes, and {the Perfect Proposal}

Logan and I are getting married. It's official :)
There are quite a few people who have wanted to hear the proposal story and I don't blame you, he is in a hospital gown in the picture!

I need to start this story a few months ago. On May 2 this year, Logan went to the hospital for kidney stones. I received a text from his mom explaining what was going on. I was in the middle of my classes and I couldn't skip, but I knew exactly where I wanted to be. I wanted to be there with him. As soon as class was out I was there. The next day I only had one class; I took advantage of that and spent most of the day in the hospital with him. We talked and laughed, he slept and I studied. I called my sister-in-law during the day to tell her all about Mr. Logan. While we were talking she told me I sounded different. She told me how she felt there was something different about Logan and I agreed. As I walked back into the room, he asked me why I wasn't wearing my chocolate shoes (He's funny on medication). He had been dreaming about me and chocolate shoes.
Later that night, my roommates came and brought me food, phone charger, and a blanket. I was determined to stay the night with him on that little fold out chair, despite the fact that hospitals usually give me anxiety and I don't like being there. I walked out with my roommates to their car and told them what was in my heart- I was in love with this boy. I knew it, and I knew I could easily spend the rest of my life with someone like Logan. I didn't share those thoughts and ideas with Logan for a long time, but since then I have. I also explained to him that it was there at Madison Memorial Hospital in room 2005 that I knew I could marry him.
May 2012
November 29, 2012, Logan proposed to me in room 2005.
Around 4:45 I got a phone call from his mom; she explained to me that Logan was in the ER because of kidney stones and it was really bad. She asked me if I wasn't working it I could come up there because he would really appreciate it if I was there. As soon as I set the phone down I was flying around my house getting things pulled together to stay the night in the hospital. I had my charger, clothes, toothbrush, blanket, everything! Tami called again and asked if I had left, I was just about to leave I told her, but I needed to call my mom to tell her where I was going.
I am an emotional person and I was bawling when I caller her. She told me to calm down, everything would be OK.
I hopped in my car and zipped towards Rexburg.
When I was almost there, my mom calls and asks if I was OK and where I was. I told her I was close to Rexburg. I assured her I would let her know what was wrong when I got there.
Knowing Logan was in pain was awful for me. I didn't want him to be in pain, so when I walked into the hospital I know that the front desk could tell I was worried. I asked what room number Logan was in, they told me they would have to call up to his room to make sure he was taking visitors. I really start freaking out in my mind thinking that he is in so much pain he isn't taking visitors. They told me he was in room 5 on the second floor.
The elevator door opens, I push the second floor button and I seriously waited FOREVER for the stupid doors to close. The nurse said to take a left and another left and the room would be right there. As I approached it I realized this was the same room from his previous visit. I thought it was kind of cool because it has an awesome view of the city, but honestly that was all that I thought. I knocked quietly in case Logan was sleeping, I come in hearing his mom's voice stressed explaining the situation to someone else. This adds more stress to me, thinking how much pain he is in. His sister is in the chair with her new camera playing around with it.
I walk to his bed and took his hand; he was under the covers in a hospital gown. He asked me how I was feeling. I told him probably better than you and that I was sorry he wasn't feeling good and leaned down to give him a kiss. He told me his feet were cold (this isn't unusual) and asked me to grab his slippers out of the box.
As I opened the lid to box I see the ring and chocolate covered shoes.

I shut the lid quickly and looked over at Logan. He was getting out of the bed and walking towards me. Logan reached into the box and grabbed the ring box. He took my left hand and started telling me how he wanted to spend forever with me. He knelt down and continued to tell me how he loved me. Before he even asked me, I leaned down to kiss him. Then the question came, "Will you marry me?"
 We hugged and celebrated and ate some cute little chocolate shoes. And yes, I was completely shocked
 Logan's dad, sister, sister's boyfriend, nieces, and my mom were all in the bathroom and were there to watch us get engaged. The hospital staff was so kind and wonderful and yes, they were all in on it. Logan had this set up with the hospital administrator and now we will be in the newsletter for the hospital! And Logan is the sweetest. He wanted to propose where I had fallen in love with him. It was perfect and more than I could ever ask for. He is more than I could ever ask for. Logan has been such a big blessing in my life. He is my everything. I'm so excited to star this new adventure with my adventure buddy, best friend, and FIANCE! I just like the way that sounds :)
To share some of the plans-
We will be married February 23, 2013.
We will be sealed for time and all eternity in the Idaho Falls Temple.
And I will become Mrs. Peterson :)
November 2012
This is the beginning of my new adventure

Gratitude Greatness Finale

Day 27- I'm grateful for memories. There are many moments that I hold close to me and I like to think about them often. Tonight I was able to reflect and thing on how my relationship with Logan came to be and how it all is just right. It was meant to be. Yes, cliche I know.
Day 28- I'm grateful for the Forgotten Carols. I love this show. It puts me in the Christmas mood and I get so excited after it. This year there were many messages that I felt personally touched me. If you ever get the opportunity to go, I highly recommend it. I know that the true meaning of Christmas isn't the presents and gifts; it is about the Savior. I am grateful for the blessing the Savior is in my life. He truly is the greatest gift.
Day 29- I'm grateful for today. It is a day I will never forget. A new adventure was started in my life tonight. And I'm so excited to share all about it (post coming soon)
Day 30 (it's past 12, so I can say the 30th)- I'm grateful for Logan. Logan is absolutely 100% the best thing that has happened to me. He has taught me patience (I'm still working on that one). And I know that I have never been so happy, he has made my life feel complete. He is wonderful, spectacular, and incredible! I'm so excited to start this new adventure with him.  Logan does more for me than I could ever ask for.

I hope all of your Novembers were full of grateful moments! Welcome to the Christmas season :)

Gratitude Greatness 3

Day 19- I'm grateful for Kim Martin. This wonderful lady was my Young Women's leader all six years. She moved up as I moved up. It was crazy how it all happened and then she was released a month before I graduated high school. Kim has been an inspiration, example, and friend to me. I've been blessed to have a close relationship with her whole family. She is always so supportive of me and wants the very best for me.
Day 20- I'm grateful for jumper cables and my Dad. This was Logan's last day in Idaho before he left for California with his family for Thanksgiving. His car was dead in the morning before he left for work and after work. Because of jumper cables, I got to see my Mr. Logan and spend some much needed time with him talking and laughing before he left. While he was at my house, he and my dad went out to check his car. My dad took a look and knew that Logan needed a new battery. I'm grateful for a dad who has learned so much about mechanics and cars that he just knows! I feel like part of my photography teaching myself stuff comes from him. He is one smart man!
Day 21- I'm grateful for confidence, trust, and patience. I have been blessed with photography clients who have taken chances with me and helped me to grow as a person and photographer. I'm grateful to have the personality I do that helps connect with my clients to give them confidence. This also refers to my friend Janie Huntsman. I was able to take some seriously gorgeous bridals for her and her soon to be husband. 
Day 22- I'm grateful for Thanksgiving. It is a day to eat too much, sleep a little, play games, and be with loved ones. It was a good day with the fam! PS. My dad is pro at frying turkeys.
Day 23- I'm grateful for happy customers! Black Friday is a smidge on the crazy side, but it's sure fun. I was one of the cashiers for American Eagle that day. It was always nice to be asked how my day was going or when a customer came up with a smile on their face. You never really know what your smile does to those you share it with- SMILE, SMILE, SMILE! :)
Day 24- I'm grateful for friends from all over. I have made so many friends in the past year at college. My friend Brittany and her fiance came to Rexburg for me to take their engagements {which turned out awesome!}. She was in my ward both semesters. I didn't really get to know her until the second semester. She is crazy, wonderful. Her and I are both on the Winter/Spring track, so she has been home in Alabama. It was awesome to see her and see her so happy! I love love :) I'm really excited to see a lot more of my friends that are back home right now for this off-track.
Day 25- I'm grateful for phones. I'm absolutely 100% terrible at responding to text messages and things like that, but it was greatly appreciated to be able to talk to Logan while he was in California. It also helps everyone in my fam keep in touch throughout the day and week. 
Day 26- I'm grateful for the little things that Logan thinks of doing for me because of how well he knows me. He honestly knows me better than anyone else. If I tell him a story about something that happened, he will say let me guess, this is what you said. And it's usually a pretty close word for word answer. Logan knows the things I need, want, and like without me ever mentioning a single thing. I'm grateful to have someone so observant and loving :)

Gratitude Greatness Round 2

Day 5- I'm grateful for photography. I LOVE photography. In the past few weeks I have learned so much by being out taking pictures and sitting here at my computer until my back aches editing. I have worked hard to get to where I am. I have gone to one workshop and I have a couple more I'm looking into for 2013, but other than that I have learned through playing around with different things. It's been one awesome journey to see what I am capable of.
Day 6- I'm still grateful to be an American. No matter what just happened, I would rather live here than another country. I have faith in a Heavenly Father who has a plan much greater than ours for what we need. I'm grateful to be an American and grateful to know I put my faith in someone greater than the president.
Day 7- I'm grateful for my bed. It's so nice to crawl into it after working a floorset shift and snuggle up and fall asleep. My family always laughs at my bed because it definitely is shaped to fit my body. You can tell where I sleep on the mattress, but hey I sleep soundly :)
Day 8- I'm grateful for people who wait up for me to get off work at 2:30 in the morning to chat with me (cough, cough Logan).
Day 9- I'm grateful to have managers that like me and trust me to help with floorset and to take extra shifts. We stayed until 3:30 am this night, but it was fun.
Day 10- I'm grateful for grocery shopping and "those" days where everything looks good. Grocery shopping with Logan was so fun. We bough the essentials and then everything else that looked good: ice cream, FuFu Berry Jones Soda, Tillamook cheese, and lots of other goodies.
Day 11- I'm grateful for church. I love Sundays; it's always fun to go watch your nieces in the primary program. And it's even better when Logan comes too :)
Day 12- I'm grateful for days off. I can get a lot of Christmas shopping and picture stuff done with the extra time. 
Day 13- I'm grateful for Traci Huntsman with Traci Huntsman Design. I get to work with her for designs for my new photography logo and such for the new year. PS, I'm going to have some awesome changes to my photography stuff. I'm really pumped about it!
Day 14- I'm grateful for BYU-I. I had to go up there today and talk to a counselor about some different degree questions. It was a good chat. I'm really grateful for the education I have received there.
Day 15- I'm grateful for Carrie (sister-in-law). It's been nice, real nice, for her to be living in Shelley. I stop there frequently to talk to her; we like being crafty and wifey together.
Day 16- I'm grateful for Kenon Fenton and temple marriage. Kenon Fenton was my FHE brother my first semester and one of Logan's roommates (prior to us meeting). He set me up with Logan :) he got married today in the Rexburg temple. It's such a wonderful feeling to know that we can be sealed for ETERNITY.
Day 17- I'm grateful for little text messages. I'm one of those people who you can make my day just by sending me a little text saying "Hey, hope you have a great day." And it never hurts when they are from Mr. Logan :)
Day 18- I'm grateful for quirks. Oh the many quirks I have seem to keep my mom and I laughing for hours.

Gratitude greatness

It's November 4. Where did 2012 go? You may know what happened to it, but I don't. I'm excited to be entering the holiday season for many reasons here are a few
1. I work retail (American Eagle, yes I love clothes) and it's way fun to work with customers at this time of the year.
2. Family time! It's a time when everyone comes home; we play games, talk, laugh, eat, and have lots of fun together.
3. MISTLETOE ;) just kidding, well kind of. Baby it's cold outside! Time to sit close by the fire sipping hot chocolate and watching movies.
4. Time to remember what we have and things we're grateful for- I'll come back to this one.
5. Christmas music. I love it. And I cannot lie to you- I'm a terrible liar anyways- I have already listened to some Christmas music. It's happy stuff!!
6. To celebrate the birth and life of our Savior and Redeemer Jesus Christ. I believe in Him. I believe in the CHRISTmas season and spirit!

Back to number four. A lot of times in November people will write down or say a thing they are grateful for every day (I wish I did this every day of the year- New Years Resolution??!). I have been writing them down, but now I'm going to write them all here for this week. Next week I will cover this upcoming weeks grateful moments

Day 1- I'm grateful for my mom and the silly things she does for me. Mr. Logan was working at Olive Garden and I really wanted to see him and have him be our server. My mom took me to dinner and we requested him. She laughed as I would get this silly, giggly, goofy, in love look on my face every single time he would walk up our table. She's such a good mom! I love her and the way she supports me in everything and she just listens to my craziness.
Day 2- I'm grateful for the examples my brothers have set for me in pursuing and doing things they enjoy and are passionate about. I found out Cody got into the PA school in Philadelphia today. He will leave next year around August. When I found this out, I was overcome with awe at all of my siblings. They have all gone into different fields that are taking them to where they want to be. It's such a good example for me at this time in my life when I can choose a lot of different fields; they have inspired me to follow my dreams and be passionate about what I do.
Day 3- I'm grateful for friends and the way they can help you become a better person. One of my friends is getting married in 27 days!! We had a girls night with the 4 of us that grew up together. It was fun to get together, catch up, and for me, I saw all the ways I have grown and become because of them.
Day 4- I'm grateful for testimony. I love the spirit that comes from others bearing their testimonies. I'm also grateful for my testimony. It has kept me going and pushing me through struggles and hard times. I know that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is the true church. This gospel brings true happiness. I'm grateful for it. It gives me peace in unsettling times and hope in times of trial. 

I'm looking forward to more grateful moments and finding new ways to express and see things to be grateful for. 

Be grateful
-M

Logan Day 4- Today I'm grateful for your teasing. I love knowing that no matter how stupid something is that I do, you'll tease me and just laugh. You don't make me feel dumb or like less of a person. It lets me know that you love me always.

Halloween Bash!

I told you in previous posts that I was planning a Halloween party, it was a success (except for the scrape on my mom's nose due to the competitive nature of my family)
Carrie and I worked hard all day Monday to get everything decorated and made. We wanted to make food that was cute Halloween kind of thing. We made bones (pretzel stick with marshmallows covered in white chocolate), pretzel/hug/candy corn snack (super good), Frankenstein pudding cups, and mummy cupcakes.
There was a guess how many candy corn game (Trent won, he's definitely an engineer), a mummy wrap (toilet paper and spinning to remove all the toilet paper off the roll), pumpkin races (the boys brought the pumpkin down to the girls, girls took it back- this is where my mom's nose got scraped. You had to push the pumpkin with your nose. There wasn't enough room for all of us. Definitely my bad), cup/string game (you had to blow the cup down to your partner and they blew it back to the other end), and a pin the bow on Mr. and Mrs. Bones. It was a lot of fun!
It was fun making all of these things and setting it all up. We also had a family/couple costume contest and pumpkin contest. The pumpkins were brought carved.

Best costume award
The Lion, Witch, and Wardrobe- stinking clever!



 Now it's time to plan a Christmas party! :)

St. George Roadtrip

Welcome back to my blog. Let's make a habit out of these visits shall we? :)

This past Friday and Saturday I made the long road trip to St. George with Logan and his family.
Honestly, I loved every minute of the 8 hour car ride. Logan slept basically the whole way down, but it gave me time to just sit next to him and talk with his family.
On the car ride down. Lots and lots of sleeping
Moon in St. George
I didn't feel bad in the slightest to leave this cold, nasty, snowy weather in Idaho to visit some warmer weather in southern Utah. I could go outside without a jacket. Ahh.. the warmth. We checked into our hotel and relaxed for a bit and then we headed out for dinner.
We didn't plan on matching, but we did. We must be dating or something... :)
After dinner we drove to the Tuacahn Ampitheatre. It was so cool. It's outdoors and the backdrop is the red rocks. The performance we were watching was called Thriller. It was put on by a dance school and it was incredible. I loved it. Dancing is just great! They had zombies out in the crowd before and after the performance.
This was my favorite zombie. She was so good
Bubbles the Klown. HILARIOUS
 After the show, we went to Menchies. It's my favorite frozen yogurt place. Yummy :)
I got to take the Peterson's family pictures on Saturday morning in St. George. It was beautiful! And guess what.. I got some super cute pictures of Log and me :)

He's a good looking guy.. I'm so lucky! :)


Anyways, we hit a few stores down in St. George and made our way back to Salt Lake and stopped at the City Creek Mall. It's amazing. Loved it!
The drive home from there was late. But  as everyone else slept, I got some good me and Logan talking/singing/laughing time. This kid knows what to do to make me laugh.
Thanks Peterson's for the fun trip!
