Valentine's Day Style 

Blaykleigh and I got spoiled with pretty flowers on Valentine's.

Jase and I had a movie date on the couch and chocolate covered strawberries were involved ... and so what if I ate them all, don't judge. 

Daddy got a card, framed picture of his littlest Valentine and a new book to read!

She is just the best, ever. 

Blaykleigh got spoiled with Valentine cards; one from us along with a Disney 'love' classic to add to the collection. 

** a few of her cards came with a cash treat, this little girl is going to be rolling in dough by her first birthday.**

She got a book all about L-O-V-E from her Nani too! 

And thought it would be wise to taste the Valentine from her Great Nana.

Then, this cup made my day. Just when the Christmas cups at Starbucks are put away until the next year they hand you a "Valentine" and yes this cup made the coffee even more special than it already is. 

2012 - date with my man #2

So tonight Jason and I went on an early Valentine's date. No snap shots were taken. Shocked? I know I am! But picture or no picture we still had a wonderful time. It was a dinner and movie date, don't remember the last time we went to both dinner and a movie in the same night!? It was a lovely night out on the town.

we had a finger lickin' meal of a time here ...

followed by a romantic picture at the theater ...

(fitting for a "Valentine's" date don't you think?!) 

2012 - date with my man #1

Fact: Jason and I haven't been on many dates since the birth of Blaykleigh. 

Reality: 2012 is a NEW YEAR and that MUST change! 

So ......

Here is our first "baby-less" date of the new year. 

Like 99.9% of any outing, it started off with a Starbucks run!!! 

Order's please -

one iced venti extra shot carmel macchiato

and

one venti extra shot white chocolate mocha  

... from Starbucks we made our way to Austin! 

Had the best intentions to stop at a fun, out-of-the-box place for lunch but we were running short on time; therefore, Jimmy John's subs to-go it was. 

A "picnic" perhaps?!

Nothing like the romantic lighting of a parking garage to spice things up!

THEN, 

the reason we drove three long hours...

to see WICKED of course.

It was fabulous and our seats were perfect!

PERFECT.

All the while, Blaykleigh was nestled safely in the arms of her Great Nana!

She had such a blast spending the day with her Great Aunt Jill and Great Nana.

Thanks again to you both!!!

After the show it was back on the road.

 Starbucks run numero dos!

Addicts much?!

Nah. No such thing in my book. 

Pitstop in San Antonio for dinner. 

Canyon Cafe. 

oooo my goodness, they have the BEST chip basket ever! 

and a pretty nifty atmosphere. 

he is fake 'cheesin'.

but nevertheless is still:

my man.

my love.
