Our Special Valentine's Day

Desmond couldn't be here for Valentine's Day so we had already celebrated it together last weekend down in Houston. We went out to dinner and then went home and made cookies. We had a really good time. He did take pictures on this new little gadget that he's proud of, but I don't have them yet. It's a keychain camera that you can't tell it's a camera and it fits in the palm of your hand...he's obsessed with it.

So this weekend it was just Isabella and I. I'm not big on Valentine's, but seeing how excited Isabella had been since last weekend how could I not make the day special for her.

Saturday we got up and we started with lunch at Country Burger (Isabella's choice) where we got her favorite...a "hamburger sandwich with cheese and ketchup only." After we were done, we went around the corner to our favorite bakery The Greene Kitchen and picked up goodies for the evening. While I was there I decided to pick up some treats for the Peyton's too. Isabella had some Starburst that she wanted to deliver to her future husband, Cole. ;)



Now we were really in the spirit so we stopped at the Mom & Pop Company in downtown McKinney and got more candy for the Peyton's....because we know Heather could always use a sugar fix.

Heather and Peyton were at the movies but her mother was there babysitting and I FINALLY got to see Gage! He's so tiny and adorable! But I won't lie...I was freaking out. I forgot how little newborns were...I'm so not prepared. Anyhow, hung out there for a bit.





After running around all day, we just wanted to go home and relax. I ordered a heart shaped pizza, picked up a salad, got out our treats, even whipped out the wine glasses (w/ ginger ale) and lit candles! We had a little romantic dinner! It was cute.













We finished the evening with a movie and a board game....Annie and Candy Land. Who could ask for much more? ;)
