Mookie Night
Way back in August I got my lovely MacBook and with it came the Photo Booth application which I have only played with on one occasion Mookie (movie and cookie) night back in August. So I had forgotten about these pictures until today! I was pleasantly surprised to find them and they have brought me laughter all day long! I hope you enjoy them!






Ha ha Michael and I had just been dating a few weeks....

The Proposal...
Okay guys here it is...I'll try not to leave too much out..
So yesterday morning I was getting ready for school and my roommate Jessica came up the stairs and told me that there was something downstairs for "Love Muffin," I just sat there for a minute then my other roommate Sarah was like, "Syb you know that it's for you!!!" (which I really didn't know since Michael's never called me love muffin.) I went downstairs and there was a bran muffin from Mimi's Cafe and some orange juice that I have been wanting for months! (Ever since my birthday when he said that I could choose somewhere to go to breakfast and I chose Mimi's because I wanted a bran muffin but instead he surprised me and made me breakfast! Which I loved but ever since have still wanted one!) It had a sweet note with it and he made it seem like in the note that this was just a nice gesture and I took it because it wasn't the first time he's randomly brought me breakfast! (I have the best fiancee ever!!) So I go to school and in my second class Biology my teacher starts class and then he said, "is Lauren Sybrowsky here?" I raised my hand and he asked me to come to the front, my teacher's CRAZY and wears dinosaur shirts everyday and had no problem embarrassing me in front of the class (which Michael apparently told him to do.) He gave me a note and a single pink rose I sat down read the note and then he yells at me to tell the class what it said. And the note said, "Lauren, I just called in a favor from professor Bybee- hope you don't mind! I need you to meet me at your car right after school. Don't keep me waiting. I LOVE YOU!" So of course after that class I was dying and wished that I could leave school that second but don't worry it was 10 a.m. when I got the letter and didn't get out of school until 3:45!! So after school I rush to my car only to find another rose on my windshield and another letter in my door. The letter told me that I was too slow and that he'd already left and that I needed to meet him at our favorite spot off the freeway and that he's reserved a special test ride. So I drive straight to the Harley Davidson dealership, go inside and told them that I was looking for Michael Adamson just like it said to do in the card. One lady looked at me really weird and the other had a spark on her face and handed me yet another letter and another rose. The card said this time that I had yet again missed him but that he's planned a special meal at my mom's house. So I hurry and get in the car yet again and drive to my mom's house in Draper. I get there and my mom opens the door and I asked where he was and she said that he wasn't here and there was ANOTHER letter and rose on the table. I was dying at this point because I just wanted to see him so bad. This time the letter told me to go to the temple. (I am giving a shortened version but each letter was so sweet and I really can't believe how blessed I am to have him in my life!) At the temple I REALLY thought that he was going to be there like I thought every time! How gullible am I. I went to where he told me to go and I couldn't see him anywhere so I called him and he continued to fool me until finally an old man caught on to who I was and told me that I probably wanted to follow him. He led me to another rose and letter that was on the gate of the temple. He told me to go to where we were lying on the "last day of summer." So I went to our friend Reese's house and Reese lead me to the trampoline with another rose and letter and he talked about when we went on a walk and he asked me out for the first time. Then went to Reese's basement where there was another rose and letter that talked about when we had our first kiss. That letter told me to go to where he first told me that he loved me. I went to the park and found another rose and letter in a tree FAR FAR away and it was blowing wind like crazy, I was a mess to say the least! That letter told me to go to La Costa where we've enjoyed many meals and the serenades of Ernesto. He also added (for real this time.) Which made me really happy because I was STARVED. LIttle did I know that he would yet again not be at La Costa and that there was another rose and letter waiting for me. This one told me to go to Jordan Commons and to ask for a lady named Kathy. So I did, she acted confused at first then led me to a back room and gave me another rose and letter. This one told me to go to the restaurant where we ate on our first date. I went to Zupas and surprise surprise he wasn't there again and there was a letter and rose behind the counter and I guess Michael bought chocolate covered strawberries to give to me but they failed to give those to me but I thought that it was nice anyway! I LOVE HIM!! That one finally told me to go to my apartment in Provo! Remember I am in Draper! I still had to drive 30 minutes to see him! I was dying. I finally got to my apartment and the lights were all off, a candle lit, and there was cute Michael in the kitchen slaving away to make me a DELICIOUS meal. We kissed for awhile, then he said that he'd been waiting to ask me a question all day long. He asked me what I was doing for the rest of my life, and if I would marry him. I OF COURSE SAID YES!! I mean how could I say no!! He gave me my beautiful ring that he picked out all by himself!! Very impressed, I seriously couldn't be more blessed. We then ate our meal that Michael made New York steak, twice baked potatoes, green beans, spinach and artichoke dip, and he included a little pomegranate apple cider. It was delicious. We just spent the rest of the night in bliss and am so in love I can't stand it. I just want to be married to him forever. There's the condensed version of the story, I couldn't have imagined a more perfect engagement to the love of my life. LOVE YOU ALL!!

Reghan insists.
Well my sister Reghan told me that I needed to blog, so I am. Even though SHE will not blog because she says that she has nothing to say! Right now I'm in the library studying.....I've been here for about four maybe five hours. I have two test tomorrow so I am just stressed. I think that stress is just my state these days, I barely have time to do anything. Poor Sarah has to put up with my tossing and turning at night, I usually wake up at 6 maybe 7, then wanting to talk to her about my stresses! Then I get super tired early because I get up so early. Honestly though a lot of my stresses are eustress's and I don't have much to complain about, I am really blessed. I see Michael for maybe half an hour a day if we see each other at all these past two weeks on school days, and a few hours on the weekends which has been hard to adjust to. Sundays are our favorite because we get to be with each other all day and just relax. I can't believe that it's already February 4...where does time go?! Sarah took me to see Michael Flateley Lord of the Dance last Friday and it was QUITE entertaining! We laughed a lot and were most definitely the youngest people in the audience!! Thank you Sar for taking me, I had a good time! It was good to just go to dinner and hang out with her for a night since I usually don't get the opportunity to do that much these days. I really miss my family too right now....Christmas is always an overdose of family but it is the best time of the year and the only time of year that I get to be with all my sisters for a few days here and there. Also, everyone....REGHAN GOT A NEW JOB! Since she won't post I will, to say the least though she really needed a new job and the perfect job just stumbled upon her and we're all so happy for her! Also, J.Crew is just teasing me with their new Spring line....I want sandals and summer dresses stat! Anyway, I need to get back to studying so wish me luck!

Thai Chicken Stir-Fry!!
Michael and I decided that one thing we're going to attempt this new year is to learn how to cook! I've decided over the years that I really am more of a baker, which comes from my major sweet tooth and that I don't cook that much. So we got out some of my cookbooks that I got from my mom this year for Christmas, went to the store and got all the ingredients, then got started! Our first attempt we were quite satisfied with and it was a great start to the new year!
Us cooking our first meal..

The finished product!

Doesn't it look so good!!!
