Another Valentine's surprise?!!!

I was having my usual busy day when the doorbell rang! When I checked, it's the UPS guy delivering another box of flowers from Pro-Flowers (the online store where Ryan ordered my roses  for Valentine's Day).

I called Ryan to ask why he's giving me another one. He said he wasn't satisfied with the flowers delivered to me last Valentine's Day. It was supposed to be a combination of pink, red and white roses but they sent pink, red and yellow instead...so he sent a complaint email to Pro-Flowers on the night of Feb. 14. So here, I have another bunch of roses  and another box of chocolates from my loving husband!


I just love getting flowers! For me there is nothing better than having the doorbell ring and have someone outside with a bouquet of flowers! Love it --- It can truly brighten my day!!!

Our Wonderful Valentine's Day Celebration

Valentine's Day 2011 was so awesome! We had a very simple but really wonderful celebration. 

Last Sunday, we had a really scrumptious pre-Valentine's Day dinner at Osaka, our second fave Japanese Restaurant here.



 We made Valentines for Clarise's teacher and 20 classmates.


 I surprised Ryan and the girls with this heart pancakes and toast with egg for breakfast.




Ryan surprised the girls and I with this lovely gifts! Simple but it was really so thoughtful and sweet of him!




I surprised Ryan with this...just to remind him of our very first Valentine's Day (this is our 17th Valentine's Day) together when I gave him a big heart pillow and a big musical card like this one...


 Cherlin and I joined Clarise for lunch in school. 



Clarise had an awesome Valentine's Day Party in school!

  
And we had an awesome four-course dinner prepared by yours truly! ;)



You really don't have to spend a fortune to have a Valentine's Day worth remembering! No matter how simple you celebrate, Valentine's Day will always be special when you celebrate it with the people you love most!

I hope your Valentine's Day was as special as mine! :-*

Pre-Valentine's Treat for the Girls

As our Valentine's treat for our daughters, we went to their all-time favorite hangout today --- Chuck E. Cheese's! Just as always, they had a great time! 

  

Though they didn't get lots of tickets (they only got 440 and I got 30 tickets for each of them from CEC online promo for a total of 500 tickets), it seems like they won a lottery with those little prizes they got! 


I'm always pleased beyond measure to see my girls having fun...and I just love the way Chuck E. Cheese's makes my daughters happy!

Snow Storm in TX

Very early today, rain, snow and powerful wind began hitting  a wide swath of the country from Texas to New England. 

It's now 17F here in Little Elm, TX...and this is what's outside our front door when I opened it...


Frisco ISD and other school districts are closed due to bad weather! Enjoy the snow, kiddos...but stay safe!!!
