During the day I got a knock on the door-I figured it was the Jehovah Witnesses who seem to really like visiting me-so needless to say I was surprised to see this being delivered.
36 Roses in that bad-boy
And this sucker is huge!
To give a little perspective...
On the right-a standard grocery store bouquet of roses and on the left-the mother of all roses!
Eric said he wanted to knock my socks off-it worked.
Then our dinner
We got the table set all nice
(dollar store cups, plates, napkins, tablecloth, bins, etc)
We created some mood lighting
We dressed up for the occasion
The kids had their favorite-tortellini, rolls and fresh fruit
Eric and I had our favorite-sushi to go from one of our favorite restaurants
And a little sparkly to finish things off right
--in our case rootbeer since we are a non-drinking family
Hope you had a great Valentines too.

ReplyDeleteNothing quite sets the evening off right like a nice, aged rootbeer.

ReplyDeleteLook at those roses! I got 17 for our anniversary last year and you got double, so awesome! The dinner looks like a lot of fun too!
ReplyDeleteThose roses are some kind of fancy. TOO COOL! You deserve them and then some right now so good for Eric. The dress up dinner is the sweetest thing. I am just bummed I didn't think of it first :)
ReplyDeleteThose are knock-your-socks off roses! Lovely!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd the tablescape looks fantastic ... as does the food! I would eat both meals!
Such great pictures of the kids!
ReplyDeleteHow cute! Your kids are so lucky to have great parents like you two!
ReplyDeleteFun to finally have a minute and see your pics. Looks yummy and the beverage cups were SO COOL! Anxious to see you guys.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great family tradition to start. Our Valentine's Day is normally a very boring event. I think this would be a fun thing to do with the kids and as a family! :)
