Love me? Then buy me things.

A day for being spoiled...I mean for love.

Since we both work full time, we did our lovers celebrations on the Saturday before Valentine's. We went to see The Vow, (It was just eh. Cool that it's a true story though. Maybe I would have been more into it if I knew that before the end credits) did some shopping and exploring around town, finally tried out Gaucho Grill, (highly recommend it. Be prepared to spend a lot, eat a lot, and gain a few pounds. Worth it! Insert drool here.) and went to an improv show. Basically, good times were had.

On the actual day of love, I woke up at four, and couldn't get back to sleep, so I got up and made breakfast in bed for us. Eggs in a basket. Mmmmmm. Then off to work we went. Aaron had flowers sent to my work, (all together now:  Awwww!) and my boss even gave the office girls some cute little arrangements. I went home at lunch and strung our house up with rope all over. I put a note at the start that said something like "Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm lucky to say I'm tied to you. Follow the string, that's your only clue, somewhere at the end a surprise will be waiting for you." Aaron said he almost peed his pants when he got home trying to crawl through the tangled web to get to the bathroom before trying to find the surprise. Apparently he'd been holding it for far too long. Haha TMI? I don't care. It's my blog. :)  He beat me home, so I didn't get to see him struggle (sadly). At the end was a huge bottle of his favorite cologne, (Clinque Happy for Men. I know, delicious right? Mmm) and a Calvin and Hobbes book. When I got home, there was a trail of my favorite goodies, and some super cute balloons throughout the house. Cute! He also got me 17 Miracles, (so very highly recommended!) and a cord for my Kinect so we can use it with our projector. Yay! I've missed my new toy haha. We didn't do much that day cause my back was picking on me, and we had already done our stuff on Saturday. We did go eat at Fredrico's, (yep, you guessed it, recommended. Best ranch dressing ever!) and watched Because I Said So. It was still a great night, because I got to spend it with my best friend.

Well, that's all.

I do apologize for all the parenthesis I used. I have fun commenting on my own comments. Yeah, it does make sense okay! :)

Hope your love day was filled with as much love as mine!
