a simple valentine's day

We decided this year to keep it simple, no gifts.  I woke up to a kiss on my cheek but Tony was long gone out the door for work when I got up.  There was beautiful snow everywhere outside and when I came downstairs there was a sweet note and candy for me.  Throughout the morning I found sweet notes. We met up for lunch, and when he came home to drive together, he brought me flowers.  We had a nice lunch and later after he came home from work I wanted to surprise him with a little something too.

Brody helped me put the hearts out (they led Tony from the garage door to our room).  The kids were certainly with us celebrating the day, so I thought it was fitting to include them.  So "be ours"!  (:  We ALL love daddy- and Brody really loved surprising him and writing him a card.  He especially enjoyed eating the conversation hearts off the card I made for Tony.  I was surprised I got to use that many hearts for his card- the bag was filled with quite variety, all very fitting for us (of course no "fax me" but definitely a "my girlz"... I didn't use that one, haha.)  I thought about sharing what I came up with- because I was proud of it!  But it's too special, sorry (;

you can tell I took my time cutting out the letters, lol.  A lot of my stuff is packed already but I made do.

Tony wanted to go out and get me a little treat but we all decided to go, and then picked up dinner.  Tony insisted I not have to cook, which was fine by me.  Later that night when the kids were asleep we watched a movie and ate our dessert (he got me cheesecake since it has sounded so good to me lately).  He also wanted it to candlelight but I had a massive headache all day (pregnancy related) so I decided I'd rather eat it by movie light.  He told me all sorts of wonderful things about me (before dessert since I dashed his candlelight plan and was going to tell me then).  It was sweet, it reminded me of when he proposed.  I'm so blessed to have Tony- he is really a wonderful man.  He sang a song to me, videoed it, and sent that as a text earlier during the day.  I loved it.  Those little gestures are worth more to me than anything.
It was a great day.
