Happy Valentine's Day!

Since V-Day was on a Sunday this year, we went out to celebrate the night before. We got a babysitter (woohoo!) and went out for an early dinner to Daisy Mae's Steakhouse. It's kind of a hole-in-the-wall joint here in Sierra Vista, but we had eaten there five years before, so it was kind of romantic to reminisce. They even sat us at the same table as last time! Then we headed to Bisbee, kind of a hippie town tucked away in the mountains. We went to their annual Chocolate Tasting Festival in the historic library. Heavenly!


Sunday, we started out our day with our traditional Valentine's Breakfast. My mom always makes a big breakfast for V-Day...so I do too! We just had waffles with strawberries and whipped bream, sausage and bacon (I splurged and bought really expensive bacon for Hank and I even liked it!), and yogurt and granola parfaits. Simple, yet delicious!



After the baby went to bed we had a little romantic snack while we watched a movie. So fun! Hank was so sweet, he bought Jessica a little stuffed puppy and she loved it. I should take a picture of her with her first Valentine.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Everything looks so great! I had a lot of good intentions that got half done. Nice to see your post.

Aloha!

I am finally blogging about our big trip to Hawaii last month. It was our 3rd anniversary and our dear friends, the Barnums, said we could come visit them anytime we wanted....so we did! Here are a lot of pictures, in no particular order: On the actual day of our anniversary, April 19th, Hank and I left the baby with a sitter and hit the town by ourselves. Since I wasn't a fan of the whole snorkling thing, we took a submarine ride to get a good view of the sea life. Yes, that is a real sea turtle in the real ocean, 100 ft underwater. I snapped this picture out my window. The view of Waikiki from our sub before we went under. The flag at the USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor. It has been raised to half mast everyday since the memorial was erected. Hank helping raise the flag first thing in the morning. "Give me gum gum, dumb dumb." Us and the Barnums at the Temple.

So Sleepy . . .

So, we may be terrible parents, but we thought this was so funny. Jessica wouldn't take an afternoon nap today and by dinnertime she was exhausted. She was so tired that she couldn't even chew her food. The best part was that Hank could not stop laughing at her and it was keeping her awake. This video was much longer, but I cut it down...because watching a baby fall asleep may not be as interesting to you as it was to us.
