Happy Birthday/Valentine's Day/Engagment Anniversary

Pete and I have made a new commitment to take more photos. We look back and realize we have almost no photos of our first 3 years of married life. Sad! Anyway, we decided to take our camera along for our weekend extravaganza. Pete just finished his surgery rotation where he was at the hospital from 4am to 7pm for 26 out of 28 days of his rotation. Yuck. Needless to say, we didn't see each other much. We both worked Valentine's weekend, and since I was sick for my birthday weekend and did nothing but lay in bed and complain, AND our engagement anniversary coming up, we decided to take advantage of this past weekend. We had good intentions of actually going somewhere, but in the end we were too lazy/stingy to take the plunge. So....we stayed at home and did a few things around town that we wouldn't normally do.
We started out by going to the mall to get Pete some new shoes. Ended up talking the guy into giving us 3 pairs of Vans for 50% of the clearance price. Yahoo! (I don't know if I'm more shocked about the price, or the fact that Pete actually went to the mall with me. *gasp*)

Eating at PF Chang's......Happens once a year on my birthday. We were just 4 months late.....

Went to see "Unknown" with friends from church.



Took a nice morning bike ride with Pete's new wheels.


Ate lunch at Jason's Deli, where of course we ate the 'free' ice cream first! I would hate to not have room at the end! :)

Went to see a doubleheader at the drive-in theatres in Glendale.

Hopped in the car and took a drive to Payson. Pete was so excited to see snow!!

In commemoration of our 'proposal', we grabbed Subway and drove to a peak for a nice scenic picnic.

Here we are reenacting the 'proposal' and staring lovingly into each other's eyes. Bleh! :)

Apparently I said yes....

Nothing much to do in Payson, so we hit up the Dollar Store and found some real treasures! Remember playing recorders in grade school? Saweet!! We actually spent 6 bucks there, which means we got suckered into buying 6 things that we really didn't need.

Highlight of the town: Pete's Place Topless Cabaret. I think that's really why Pete wanted to go to Payson.....

Cheese in the snow.

Finished the weekend off with a popcorn and a movie at home. Pete even stoked up the fire. (Yes, it does get cold in Phoenix.....sometimes.)

Wow....we watched a lot of movies this weekend!
