March Madness- KnP Style

Loving this song right now. Seriously you have got to listen to it.

So soothing.

But moving on...Just a picture update of what the month of March was all about at our house. The pictures are out of order, and for some reason blogger won't let me rearrange them. So here they are in all their disorganized glory!

Went to Cory and Lizzie's wedding March 27 in the Oquirrh Mountain temple along with our good friends Matt and Ali. The wind was freezing, but the sun was amazing. Such a striking temple!

The newlyweds.

See, I told you it was cold...I seldom zip my coat up to my chin, cuz I look so dorky when I do!

Okay. These next few are of our one night trip in Midway. I was feeling bad since it was Spring Break and all Peter and I had planned was to have the day off together while he worked on his truck (the rest of our "spring break" consisted of plans of being waist deep in school work and working all day anyway. Not much of a break, since thats what we do every day!). Mom Gibbons listened to all of my boo-hooing (I love my mom, we can talk/complain/laugh all day if we want to each other and never get tired of it) and came up with a solution: a late Valentine's day surprise night at one of Grandma's Condos in Midway, UT! I decided I would surprise Peter with it. I am super glad it was planned only 2 days in advance-I don't think I could have kept it a secret much longer than that! So, after work on a Wednesday night, I surprised him by picking him up from work, and we drove out to Midway. I had never heard of it before, but I'm sure glad we went! It was a nice break from an all-too predictable life lately.

One of my picks for a stop in Midway: the famous Homestead Crater (read a bit more about it here, its pretty neat). Nice 96 degree water inside a cavern-you can even scuba dive in it!

(this is our household's version of "March Madness". Hopping snowbanks. We don't watch sports on tv, obviously)

We drove past this little old service station that has been changed into a Montessori school. Peter has always talked about his "shop" that he wants to build (so that he can work on our cars/have his own personal space-since the house is apparently my domain haha-its his vision of the ideal "man-cave", so to say) when we get a house. As we drove past this little shop-turned-school, of course we had to stop and take a pic...now I have a physical picture of what exactly he has been describing to me all this time. *Excitement!*

Sweet little Swiss welcome sign. I love the feel of these cute little gem-towns! Everything from the signs to the buildings make you almost feel like you're in Europe.

Some days I swear this is really how small our house is.

They are melting, but these were real ice castles! They still had to be at least 40 feet high. Wish we woulda been in town a couple weeks earlier-they didn't allow walking around/in/through the area anymore because of falling ice danger. But they were still beautiful from the fence.

Married for almost 18 months to the day when this was taken.

A year and a half strong...and loving life a little more each day!

Oh yeah, one more thing. If you're ever in Midway, you have got to eat at the Spicy Lady. Its definitely a dive, but good home cooking, and the creme brulee is absolutely delish!
