Valentines

February 15th, 2011

This year Ant and I enjoyed the day with our two mini Valentines. It was quaint and cozy and heavy on chocolate. Just right!

Here’s a peek into our day:

Ant took the morning off to surprise us with a special Valentine’s breakfast! We all threw on a little pink and headed out to one of our favorite places. After we were stuffed, we stopped for a bit of shopping. Ella Faye has her heart set on a yellow swimsuit we found online – it is a must for her beachbag this Spring. We couldn’t find it in store, but she came away with two new pairs of flip flops in the meantime. It was a lovely relaxed morning. (I also got a few Valentine smiles from the littlest!)

Later in the afternoon, Ant came home with the rest of the ingredients we needed for our Valentine cupcakes. Ella and I got to work making these (doo-licious, as Ella says). Then of course we devoured them.

We fed our mini Valentine, bathed and put her to bed, and ordered take-in for two (and a half). Then Ant and I enjoyed second dessert with molten cakes, vanilla gelato, and berries. A day rich in fun, chocolate, and love. The best! Hope yours was just as sweet!
