For some reason it snuck up on me this year.
I did put up a few decorations, and Alyse and I did make a few cards. I even went and got Alyse a cute red heart dress to wear, and then tried to do a little Valentine's photo shoot with her.
But when it came to actual Valentine's Day I really wasn't all the organized.Josh did a great job of making me feel loved.
On Friday afternoon there was a box of 18 beautiful red roses that was delivered.
Then on Sunday morning I woke to find little love notes all over the house and in my car.
I didn't even get Josh a card!!!! However, I did make him a red velvet heart shaped cake. (That is a little tradition of ours.)
After church, where we celebrated the beginning of Love Week (you have to click on the link to learn all about it!!!!), Josh and I were home alone for the rest of the day. (Alyse is at my parent's house this week.)
Josh had made plans to go to dinner and a movie, but we decided that I should really just stay home and relax. So, he went and got Mexican food from a new restaurant that opened right behind our house and he also went to the grocery store and bought sparkling grape juice and some chocolate and strawberries. We made chocolate covered strawberries and laid in bed eating them and watching some DVRed shows. (How romantic!)
It wasn't all that fancy of a Valentine's Day, but really, we aren't fancy people.

I was happy just to spend some time together and relax.
