Valentine Love

Unlike last year, this year's V-Day was low key. Patrick had to work in the evening so we ventured out to The Village Bistro for lunch together. They served Jambalaya so Patrick was thrilled. I had the Club sandwich and it was good. We got home and there was a package on our door. It was chocolate covered strawberries all the way from NYC! That was my gift from Patrick which I will take over flowers any day. They were super yummy! I shared one with Patrick. Later that day, I noticed that there was a card on the front of the delivery box so I decided to open it. Check it out:



I texted Patrick a picture of it and we both had a good laugh about it. Turns out, he didn't write anything in the "note" part when he ordered it. Apparently the strawberry company thought that it shouldn't have been left blank!

Raya got a special Valentine from her boyfriend, Blake. She texted me a picture that said "Feeling the Valentine's Love" How cute is this?



Apparently Blake had been sick for a few days and wasn't going to be at school on Valentine's Day so he dropped it off the night before. He seems to be a pretty cool kid. They have been "going out" on and off for about a year now. I'm not 100% for sure on the length of boyfriend time I had when I was her age, but it certainly wasn't a year...in fact, it was more like 2 weeks! HA!

Not to be outdone, Raya made this Valentine for Blake:



Her and three of her friends delivered it to him at his house on their way to the Valentine's dance at their school. It was a good thing her friends were there, otherwise, I think she would have just dropped it off on the porch and ran...

If you ask the kids what the best part of Valentine's Day was this year, I'd bet they would say Chocolates for Breakfast. I'm such an awesome parent! HA!
