Valentines and Then Some

James and I had a great Valentines Day - to start off the day we had a candle lit breakfast. We were going out to dinner at a restaurant that night, but also wanted to also eat at home in the candlelight all romantic like but because we wanted to sleep in on a Saturday and it's not dark at 9 AM...
we got creative and covered all the windows with blankets, sham wows, and couch cushions as you can see from the picture. The neighbors probably think we're nuts, but they were bound to find out eventually...
James then surprised me with the below outstanding display of natures beauty and a gift certificate to the spa club to get pampered... whoo! He even threw in my favorite drink and candy to top it off- what a sweetheart.


The day then proceeded pictureless, but so much fun. In a quick review, we were able to go out to lunch, catch a little matinee of "Taken", throw a couple of bowling balls, and then out to dinner at Bucca. It was a great day and I'm glad I had such a great valentine.
Last weekend Sunny, Josh, and Hailee came over and we made some homemade pizza. It was a first for all of us (I think Josh lied about this though, his dough throwing skills seem like they had been around the block before...). They turned out pretty good though! It was a lot of fun and I'm glad that they live so close now so we can get together more! (hint hint jean)

Preparing for the mess... James, Sunny, and Josh
