Valentine's Day has never
been a huge deal for us (though I'm certainly
not against long dinners where we linger over fancy food
and no one is asking me how many more
bites they have to eat)...but we decided to
stay in. However, I couldn't just not celebrate....
so we did manage to sneak in a few fun things!
The celebration started in late January with a
Valentine's day photo shoot....which really
did manage to capture Max's silly side.

I've also started a "Spark committee" at work - which is
basically doing fun/low-key/nice things for others.
At the beginning of the month, we did a bulletin board
and added a heart with everyone's name. Then,
people put Valentines, candy, Make it Great cards (it's
a Zoo thing), and even fun straws in them all month long!
I wanted to cap the celebration off with donuts...
so I stopped at Krispy Kreme...and let's just
say people didn't hate it.
Rob and I ended up meeting for lunch
(which we very rarely do!)
at a place called BiBiBop...which is sort of
like an Asian chipotle...complete with yum yum
sauce (and kale if you're Rob)!
At dinner time I set the table with
my ruffle edge pink plates (i only have
four settings) that I never use....but, #yolo
When Max got home from art class - he was
greeted with our "fancy" table - complete with doilies,
candles, and cards for all (and tulips for Mama)!
I even went one step further by cutting
his strawberries into hearts and using the "pink"
applesauce! Feel free to Pinterest that for future
reference...jkjkjkjk
We dined on pizza in the shape of a heart...
drank water from wine glasses....
and lit all the candles!
Other highlights included - a silly
balloon from Papa Rob to Max!
Lots of Valentine's from
his friends...heart art work...and silly glasses
from Miss Jessi!
We finished the night out with SnapChats!
I just knew they would have funny Valentine's
filters....and they did!
I sincerely hope your Valentine's day was full
of love, all the heart emoji's, and flattering SnapChat filters :)
xoxo
