Feelin' The Love

Happy Valentine's Day!

We celebrated over the course of a few days - and had fun doing it too! =)

Friday, when Jen got home from work, she was surprised with flowers from her brother. Aren't they gorgeous!?!?
Sunday afternoon, for lunch after church, we had to get the heart-shaped pizzas that Papa Murphy's promotes every year during Valentine's week. It's one of our favorite places to get pizza. Isn't it fun? =)


Sunday afternoon, Mom Kelly had little Valentine's gifts for the adult kids. She put them in cute little bags and the goodies inside were SO much fun! =)
Sunday night, Greg took Jen out to a surprise dinner up in Littleton, CO. Ever heard of the Opus Restaurant? It was a lot of fun and the food was pretty darn good. (Not to mention it's one of Denver's best restaurants in the 5280 Magazine!) Here is what our 3rd course (out of 6) looked like:
Monday morning and early afternoon, Noah was with Mimi while Jen was at work. He started off the day and surprised her with flowers.....

Then she made him a fun Valentine's breakfast (here's part of it....)
And then it was her turn to give him his present! "It's a pillow, it's a pet, it's a pillow pet!" He was SO incredibly happy to get it - always wanted one when we went to the store. Now he finally has a doggie one that he fondly refers to as "Bah."

Later that night, we made a Valentine's cake. Cheesy, but fun. Noah got to help make the cake, but as you can see in the picture above, he was getting sleepy and had to go to bed before actually having any of the cake. Maybe tomorrow..... ;)
Noah also surprised Mommy and Daddy during different parts of the day and gave them cards/gifts. He sure was in the giving/loving spirit today. =)


Hope you all had as wonderful of a Valentine's day as we did these past few days! =)

Noah & Addi love their pillow pets too. It was fun to watch Chuck's Noah open his pillow pet, his is a turtle.

Glad you had a great Valentine's Day with surprises.
