Plans Falling Through

This weekend I was trying to make plans for Michael and I to go on a date or go to the Temple. Things didn't work out like I wanted them to. He has to work Saturday and then has meetings. This seems to be the pattern for us when we try to make plans, a date, or try to go to the temple. I thought I might share some of our more memorable ones, so next anyone else has plans that fall through you know you are not alone, and you can laugh with us at our past stories.

Our Engagement
When Michael was going to propose his original plan was to drive up to Mesa Falls and hike around then propose. The morning of the big day Michael got a flat tire on his car, so all he had was the donut to drive on. I dropped a drawer on my foot, so it wasn't in the best walking condition. It had also rained and rained so Michael was afraid of getting stuck out there. He finally decided on lunch then the city park. He asked me where I wanted to go for lunch, not knowing that he was going to pop the question that day, I suggested this cheap fast food place that was offering a bag of burgers cheap. All in all we had a romantic bag of burgers and a proposal in the park. :)

Our Honeymoon
Michael planned for us to spend a few days in Jackson Hole and then go to Utah for a few days. He wanted to take me to Lagoon. I love amusement parks. Well, things went well in Jackson, but on our way to Utah I got a painful Migraine. It was a killer. The next day I was feeling better we drove to Lagoon and it was closed! haha Who knew Lagoon closed in the middle of August. :)

Dallin's Birth
I had planned for my sister to come for two weeks, so that she could see the baby. I was told that I would have a C section if it go too close to my due date, since I have large babies. I planned for my Mom to be here for the birth and a week after to help out. Well, it turned out that the OR was booked until July 17, which was ten days after my due date. I went into labor three days before that and all went well, but I had it planned so well I was sure my Mom and Sister were going to see and play with the baby. My Mom had to extend her visit by a week, and it all worked out in the end. :)
