a valentines to remember

i love valentines day.  why not have a special day dedicated to doing extra special things for the ones you love.  don't tell me that every day is valentines day at your house...i won't believe it!

i wanted gordon to feel extra special this day.  he is the best at making sure my holidays are perfect, so i wanted to out shine him.

i made yogurt parfaits for breakfast in bed.
i set an alarm on his phone to go off while he was at work telling him to check his wallet.  i stashed a love note in it.  in the note i mentioned that i upload a special cd to his itunes...he was to listen to it and think of me (cheesy, yes.  but i love it!)
when he got home we had dinner.  nothing fancy.
and then came the highlight of the evening...i had made a fort in our bedroom!  complete with christmas lights (thanks matt and jenny) and everything!  we ate donuts arranged in a heart and drank pink hot chocolate under it.  pretty much my favorite thing ever!  i wish we could have a permanent fort set up somewhere in our house.  maybe once we have chillin' we will!






at the end of the evening gordon told me he had the best wife ever.  i can never hear that enough (mostly because i don't...and not because gordon isn't sweet, but because i'm rarely the best wife ever.  i'm usually just marginal).
