Valentines day 2015!

We actually celebrated valentines day early this year. On Friday Mitchell surprised me by taking the day off. We went to the foothills and hiked. It is definitely shaping up to be an early spring. The trails where pretty muddy but new green grass was showing up all along the trails. It was beautiful! Just what I needed. I need to get out to open land and air, really it is a need.
After our hike we stopped at our favorite ice cream shop. Its a cute vintage style place and everything is homemade. I ate a turtle Sunday with Eli and Mitch and K shared a big bannana split.
We also went to toys R Us and got a double jogging stroller! Finally! oh happy day!

For dinner Mitchell got out his grill again and made amazing BBQ Chicken. We had some spice potatoes and corn on the side. It felt so much like summer I forgot it was February!

And to make things even better Mitchell got me a big bouquet of flowers we all got candy and....
Mitchell got me a camera!
Thank you Mitchell for the best valentines day! Having you home for a 4 day weekend was amazing the kids and I really wanted the extra time with you! You are our favorite!


Actual valentines day was low key.  I made our usual weekend pizza, we saw Grandma and grandpa west- they brought us delicious cupcakes (thank you grandma) and Mitchell and I went to a movie.

Thank you Mitchell for such a great day (s)!
Here are a few pictures of some of the flowers he got me! It was a big bouquet. Thanks M.
