Valentines Day

Happy Valentines Day Everyone!

I woke up this morning and made breakfast for Scott, though he was staying oddly quite through all of it and didn't come out of the room. When I walked back into the room, music was playing (a playlist he put together for me), and I saw "I Love You" written out in candy on the bed and a note saying "For tonight". Under the note was a jewelry box with PENGUIN jewelry in it! 

After he left for work, I went to PHEAA and heart attacked his car.
Then I headed over to my parent's to drop off Mom, Dad, and Grandma's Valentine. 

I've been working on scrap booking papers, tickets, pics, and letters from when Scott and I were dating. So I did that for the rest of the day until Scott came home and we both got ready for what he had planned for, "a surprise" (but i was pretty certain he was taking me out for dinner).  

So as I was getting ready, Scott would periodically come into the room with a different style of facial hair. I love being married to him cuz he sure does know how to make me laugh and have fun. I wish I would've gotten a pic of the Goatee one, he actually looked good with it. Here were a few:
Side-burn 
                                           
                                                      Amish

My mom showed up during all this with beautiful fresh flowers and a box of chocolates for V-day.
It was nice to see her and I felt very special. :-) I love having fresh flowers in the house, but I realized...I do not have any vases. So I had to get creative.

Milk jugs were the closest we had

Then I just decorated them with fabric I had laying around. 

Great addition to my scrap booking table! :-)

Thank you mom! I love you so much and I'm so grateful for you and dad and all the  love and support you've given me throughout my life.

Then we were off to the "surprise" Scott had planned. When we pulled up I recognized it immediately  We had been wanting to go to this Greek place for a while called Hellenic Kousina. It was fun because there is this cheese you can get that's drenched in brandy or something like that and they bring it to you flaming, and then you put it out with lemon juice squeezed from a fresh lemon. We didn't get that one but several people did and it looked so neat. We got Pikilia, which is apparently just an array of a bunch of things, meat on sticks, these cheesy spinach pastry things, and Dolmades (flavored rice and herbs wrapped in grape leaves). We also got fresh veggie salad with feta cheese and some sort of flavored rice. It was all mouthwateringly delicious.
Outside was very beautiful . They have a little patio-like garden area with a Greek statue in the middle under a canopy of lights. If it wasn't so dang cold I would've eaten out there. 
After everything we had our own little dance. We danced to things like "Find Me A Baby" by Josh Turner and chowed down on the chocolates momma gave us. 




Happy V-Day from us to you!
