Valentine's Day 2012

We knew that the actual February 14 would not be filled with romance in our world, so we had a our celebration early. The first week of February we went up to Fort Worth, and I told Cory that we were going up to help Dad and Kris watch Anne's kids. He kept telling me that it would be better for him just to stay at home to do more work on the house. Finally, I told him that he needed to stop saying that because he was coming with me! When we got up there, we spent Friday night and Saturday afternoon there, then it was our time to go on our adventure. I had booked a hotel room in Las Colinas, made plans to go to a glass blowing place to make our own flower for Valentine's Day, and made reservations at a nice steak restaurant. He was really excited, and we had a great time! We ended up not staying at the restaurant to listen to the band that was playing, but hanging out at the hotel in peace and quiet was absolutely amazing! I was so happy that we had some time together, and I am so grateful for my dad and Kris for watching the girls for us.

Just as I suspected, our real Valentine's Day was filled with love, but not very much romance...it consisted of working, taking Adilyn to soccer practice, looking through all their Valentine's cards, eating Taco Cabana in the car on the way home, and watching the Rockets game at home. So, needless to say, I am glad that we celebrated earlier!
