This year Valentine's day fell on a Tuesday which meant low key for us since we're in bed so early during the week! It was so much fun at school with all the kids and their Valentine's and all the yummy treats parents brought to the teachers! The kids in our room made really cute Valentine's that we sent home with the parents and ourselves. They were their little footprints stamped and then a cute little note was written on the back. Adorable. I also made cute little Valentine's for my kids with some scrapbooking stuff I had laying around. I woke up that morning to Danny's gift that he had left out before he went to work at 5. He had bought me See's candy (a definitely LOVE) and Lady and The Tramp blue ray. YES!!!! :) He *actually* listens when I speak random things sometimes...like when the Lady and the Tramp commercial comes on and I say, "I loved that movie, I have to buy it!" he heard me and actually listened! HAHA! :) We decided this year that we would go very low key for Valentine's day...I'm not a big deal kind of person for Valentine's day and neither is he. I bought him a gift set of cigars (not Cuban because apprently they're illegal which I didn't know and I walked into a cigar shop asking for them...hello dumbass!) and he LOVED it! Of course. :) On my way home from work I stopped by to leave some flowers for my grandma. I miss her so much, and holidays make me miss her even more. She always sent us cards for Valentine's day from "loveland, USA"...I drive by the cemetary ever single monday night now and so far, I have burst into tears every time I pass by....I am so lucky to be so close to where she is but I would much rather have her here. It's so hard and doesn't seem like it has gotten much easier over the years...Then we went out to dinner to this sushi place that we both really like. (Well, I get veggie tofu ramen and cucumber avacado rolls with soy paper wrap, as far from sushi as it gets but hey, that's what I like!) We also had the Forest House Lodge cocktail party this past weekend that was a Valentine's day event so we did that as well.
All in all, I would say it was a really successful, low key day! :) I couldn't have asked for more!
