After checking in on Friday, we went to the temple to do sealings. It was the perfect way to remember our own sealing, and all of the blessings we received. It may sound odd, but it was also very romantic be able to kneel across the alter again and smile and look into each other's eyes, just like we did a year ago! It brought back all of the emotions we had then of love and excitement :) We have a little slide show at the bottom of this post where you can see some of the fun we had, but I'll just give you a quick summary:
-went to the temple
-went out to eat at a sit down Pizza Hut (how often do you see sit down Pizza Huts?)
-went to the St. George Day Spa and had massages and facials
-drove up Snow Canyon, took a walk and some pics
-had dinner at the Riverwalk Grill
-exchanged fun gifts (just to clarify our gift to each other was the massage and facial, but we each did a little gift)
-went swimming
-gave each other pedicures (I had to take advantage of Brady not being able to say no :)
-had lunch
-went golfing
I gave Brady all "paper" gifts for fun, since the traditional 1 yr. gift is paper (ie: a puzzle i made, a poem, and a pinata filled with old notes from each other) This isn't made out of paper, but I made a dvd of our "photo montage" that we were supposed to have at our wedding but never did. So if anyone wants to come over and watch pics of us as little babies, growing up, and then dating, we actually have a video now!
Brady gave me an awesome jewelry box that he noticed I've needed and wanted because all my jewels get all tangled, broken, and lost.
*sometimes we like to act like we're taking pictures, and then take a video to confuse the other person. So if you're wondering why we're just looking at the camera smiling and not saying anything in the videos its because only the person filming knew it was a vid. lol. Oh and I don't know why this whole thing is underlined. Sorry.

How fun and romantic!! What a great week end!
You both did such a good job - what a wonderful memory! It's also special that you did things just like you did a year ago - sealings, wearing the dress you wore last year, the DVD, and added some really fun firsts too! You are a special couple - and so in love!!!
