I know, I know the suspense has been killing each of you. I apologize for my late post but I had to steal the pictures off Kevin's camera in order to make this post perfect.
OK here we go...
My Valentine's weekend was absolutely perfect. Probably the best way to spend your first Valentine's Day as a couple. I couldn't have asked for a better 3 days. And it was even topped off with 4 - 5 inches of snow :)
Want the details? Well I hope so cause I'm going to tell you whether you want to hear them or not.
So, Kevin and I decided instead of fancy restaurants, expensive shows or far off weekend get-a-ways, we would take the weekend to relax and spoil each other right here in Georgia. We split the weekend up so that each of us had an evening to spoil the other... such a good idea.
Friday was my night! Remember that meal I was telling you about in my Friday post... well I pulled it off!!! My first attempt at cooking fish was a success. Here's a picture to prove it...
Apple - Feta Salad, Hassleback Potatoes, Lemon Butter Green Beans along side my main dish Swordfish with Rosemary! Scrumptious :)
Then for dessert...
Chocolate Covered Strawberries which Kevin helped me with. Those things are difficult to make. We realized why they are so expensive in Godiva!
Saturday was Kevin's night to spoil me :) I like nights like this haha.
His meal was absolutely delicious and he really took into account my favorites...
Balsamic Salad with Pomegranate, Red Potatoes with Spinach and garlic along side a Seafood Bake complete with Mahi, Shrimp and Scallops. Heavenly I tell ya, Heavenly!!!
Besides the amazing food and sweet gifts (which I didn't post but will later), we participated in two unforgettable things that in my eyes made the weekend extra special.
Numero Uno - We built a Snowman. Everyone meet Billy Bob...
Our redneck snowy friend :)
The funniest part, Kevin getting the snowman started, haha. Watch!
Number 2 - One of the sweetest things I've seen in a while... We helped Kevin's grandfather, aka Pop pull off a Valentine's Day surprise for his wife/Kev's Grandmother. After Watermarke Church, we went to Target and picked up a rose/lily bouquet, a sweet Valentine card( with red roses on the cover as requested) and all the ingredients to make a lovely dinner. While Kevin's parents gathered his grandparents and brought them over, we prepared the meal and the setting. It was so sweet to see Pop surprise his wife :) I wish I had a picture!
Overall weekend? PERFECT!!!! My best ever :) I'm one lucky little girl!
