Valentines Day

Hayden and I said that we weren't going to do very much for Valentine's day. We decided that we wouldn't even get each other gifts. Well, we ended up celebrating for almost a week... and we did get gifts.

Last week I came home to my Valentines gift. Hayden had gone to the craft store and gotten me a cake pan that I wanted. He also picked up some lilies in advance so they would open up before Valentines Day. For Hayden's gift I got him a super goofy K'nex Jeff Gorden race car to put together. For some reason I encourage the goofiness.

On Saturday night we had dinner with our two favorite Leander couples the Johnsons and the Shoemakers. Jaclyn and David made an amazing dinner and Hayden and I supplied dessert.

The fancy Valentines Day dinners continued on Monday night when Hayden prepared a four course dinner- french onion soup, zucchini and yellow squash casserole, shrimp scampi and pasta, and macaroons to finish it off. We even sat at our dinner table to eat. I may be a little spoiled by my husband. After we finished eating Hayden realized that he may have set the Valentine's Day bar a little high for future years. But, I really won't mind if he keeps trying to top this year.
