Valentine's started for us on Friday since we knew there would be too many things going on Saturday to do all the things we wanted to. I had to run do some errands on Friday and when I returned I found a beautiful orchid plant on the coffee table. I love fresh flowers and I especially love having plants because then I can have fresh flowers all the time. There are lots of buds waiting to open up so I'm going to get to watch as they all open up. Plus, I really love orchids.
So, I wandered into our bathroom. There I found a beautiful red rose. I had to call Brad and say thanks for the beautiful flowers. Later that day I even had a special delivery. It was a giant sugar cookie with a card from Brad.
But this wasn't all the surprises Brad had. When he came home he brought with him some more flowers which are just beautiful.
The plan from there was to go out for dinner and come home and make sugar cookies. However, after dinner at Red Robin Brad wasn't feeling too great. Instead of cookies, it was Advil and Tylenol to cool his fever down. It wasn't too bad because Brad and I just got to sit and talk for the whole evening.
Saturday, I made pink, heart-shaped pancakes for breakfast. I think that was the only Valentine's related thing for the day. After lunch, Brad had to leave for a trip with the Men's Chorus. They were going up for a master class with the King Singers. Once Brad got home it was off to the adult session of Stake Conference. While it was disappointing in a way to go to Stake Conference on Valentine's Day, it was well worth it. When we got home we were going to try again to make our sugar cookies. However, fever hit again and we ended up just watching a movie instead.
The sugar cookies did get made though. It took us till Sunday evening, but Brad was finally feeling good enough.
Even though it took from Friday to Sunday to get done with all of our Valentine plans it was fun to have Valentine's everyday.
