Happy (Belated) Heart Day

The hubby and I don't tend to make too big of a deal about Valentines Day...but we always like getting a chance to go out to dinner and remind each other how special the other one is! :)

I wanted to post a few pics of our Valentines Day celebration...


Roses from Cody and the heart pajamas my Mom sent me (Thanks, Mom!) :)

We exchanged small gifts...

DVD that I received (really good movie, REALLY good book)

Game that Cody received

Cody also bought us new pillows...I had been waking up a lot with neck aches and swore it was because of my pillow. So he got us these awesome pillows from Target that are one side down/one side memory foam...and let me just tell you, they are amazing!

We ended up just going out to dinner at this little Italian restaurant, Favaloro's, in Pacific Grove...great Italian food and great service! And then we went to see "Valentine's Day" at the theater...cute movie, but not as funny as I'd hoped. But hey, it was Valentine's Day, what else were we going to go see?! ;)

Back at home, after an evening of fun...we were definitely sporting the Valentine's Day colors!

Oooh...and I also received a little Valentines Day surprise from one of my fellow knitters/crocheters:

It's a bag full of goodies:

  • 1 skein of Valentines-inspired yarn
  • 1 pattern for crocheted Sweet Hearts
  • A Valentines note pad
  • Coaster
  • Heart Pencil
  • Candy (including New Moon Sweethearts)
**Thanks Jenn**

Hope everyone had a fabulous Valentine's Day as well!! <3

BIG purchase

I have been wanting to buy Cody an Xbox 360 for quite some time now...he has been wanting one for a couple of years now and has waited very patiently. He mainly just wants to be able to play online using Xbox Live (and especially game with his brother Curt)...and his game of choice just happens to be: Call of Duty!!

Since he just passed his latest exams and has worked so hard this past year...I really wanted to surprise him with it! And how lucky am I that they just came out with this Limited Edition COD bundle:


It came with everything...a COD-themed console (250 GB hard drive), the COD game, 2 wireless controllers, a headset, everything you need to set up Xbox Live, etc.

I was like, "Wow, what a deal?!" My sister and brother-in-law were also nice enough to give Cody a 12-mo. membership to Xbox Live! Thanks guys! :)

Well, he LOVED it!! He was so surprised and I would have to say that he is extremely enjoying playing online, seeing as that is what he doing at this very moment next to me. I wouldn't say I've completely lost him to the gamer world...haha (but only time can tell, right?!)!! I'd say it was a good purchase...I mean, I got to download Tetris! Everyone loves a game of Tetris :)
