Scott had to go into work on Saturday, so I spent the bulk of my day with my littlest Valentine. We got a small dumping of snow in the morning. After shoveling the driveway, we built a little "snow castle"...
Which Owen promptly destroyed...
We chased the neighbor cat all over the cul-de-sac...
We explored the rock pile in the backyard...
Scott came home with beautiful flowers and cupcakes from Le Cakery - so, so, so yummy. This was the "kid-cake" size for Owen. Scott and I had the real deal (in red velvet with butter cream and chocolate-chocolate) after Owen went to bed.
My two Valentines...
Owen came running down the hall to deliver my cards...
I got one card with Tomas the Train (and one with a much more romantic theme).
Owen finished his night by opening this card from Grandma.
Scott and I finished our night with a lovely home dinner, a bottle of wine, those awesome cupcakes, and a personal guitar concert in our living room. A fantastic evening...especially since I spent most of the afternoon expecting to write a blog post about our "romantic valentines day with the stomach flu." Glad to dodge that bullet!
Happy Valentine's Day!

OK - I must say, sounds lovely - but the juxtaposition of the pix of snow with the palm tree background -- well...hmmm!
Fun - glad you got Owen two switch sculpture media (sand/snow) so quickly :)
It sounds like a perfect Valentine's Day. Those cupcakes sound divine!
Yes, we are still mentally in Hawaii. I'm thinking swimsuits as I layer jackets, gloves, and hats every morning.
Sounds like our Valentine's Day--a walk around Green Lake with Calla and Winnie during the day, then, after Calla went to bed, a fabulous homemade dinner with a lovely bottle of "special occasion" wine. MUCH more romantic than going out!! SO glad you avoided the sickness!
