Valentine's Day has always been one of my favorite holidays. I think it is because it is close to my birthday, and because I love the colors pink and red together. I know, kind of silly reasons. Unfortunately Trever was on long-call on Valentine's Day, so we celebrated the day before. It ended up being sort of a marathon date, but it was a special ocassion. Grandma Helen was kind enough to watch the girls while we went out. First, we saw "Confessions of Shopaholic," which was entertaining. Then we went back to Grandma Helen's so I could feed Hadley. Then we left again and had dinner at California Pizza kitchen. It was so nice to actually do dinner and a movie, since we hadn't done that in a long time! It only took from about 1:00pm when we left for Grandma's until 9:00pm by the time we got home!
On Valentine's Day Grandma Jan and Becky invited us over for the kids to decorate sugar cookies and play. Later that night, Becky came to our house to hang out and play with Liberty. After his shift at the hospital, Trever picked up some cheesecake at the Cheesecake Factory for us to enjoy at home. It was delicious, and worth his 30 minute wait for it. You would think you could just walk in and pick some up in a few minutes! Needless to say, Trever probably won't be doing that again next year.
I got Trever some exciting gifts... a couple of t-shirts and some socks. I got Liberty some red mixing bowls for her kitchen. Although she really liked them, after she opened it she said, "I want more presents." She isn't greedy, but I realized the only experiences with presents she has had are her birthday and Christmas, both of which she got multiple presents. We had to explain to her that sometimes she only gets one present. She got over it quick.
