February was a really busy month for us. We started the month with Donovan's birthday. On the 13th, we were able to go to the Missionary Training Center in Provo to see Talon off for his mission. It brought back a lot of memories for Donovan and I to be back in there! Talon seemed to be keeping his cool, but I could also tell that he was pretty nervous! He will be in there for about 2 months before heading out to Alabama. It is nice that we are so close. We can get a letter from him in one day and we can send him huge packages with same day delivery for only $2.00! We have already sent him some fun packages.
That night, I went to work up in the Sandy area. We were hit with a major snow storm and as I was leaving work, I found out that they closed the road that I use to go home! Luckily, Donovan's mom was also in the area. We decided that we needed to play it safe and just stay in a hotel over night. It really sucked, but had Donovan's mom not been there, I probably would still be sitting in my car, crying my eyes out.
The next morning, the roads were clear enough to get home, and it was Valentine's Day! Donovan was really sweet and had some flowers and chocolates delivered (I suspect the chocolate was for him though, since I can't eat it)! We didn't really do anything special for the day, as I had to work later that night.
The last fun event that occurred in February was my trip to Colorado to visit on of my BFF's, Angela Henderson. We have known each other for about 8 years now, and she recently had her first baby, little Finn. He is quite possibly one of the cutest babies I have ever seen! How come all of my friends have the cutest kids? Where does that leave Donovan and I? Anyway, I always feel so great after visiting Angie. She is an awesome friend (and hairdresser)!

You look so cute Mischa!! I love your hair!
I'm so excited for Talon! He'll do great!
I was thinking the same thing, Mischa....you look amazing! I heard about your snow storm fiasco. Yeah--so much better to not have to go through something like that alone. How fun that you were able to visit your friend and her new baby. BTW--considering the ultra-cute babies in the Bates family, you are SET!!
Mischa, you look so beautiful!! And I love your hair! I love the color and your bangs! Angie is amazing. My fav picture is the one with you and....I'm assuming...Angie's dog. And congrats to Talon!
