Happy Hallmark Holiday
February 14th, the day you are supposed to show your loved one how much you cherish them. Forget the other 364.25 days...on those days you can act like a total jerk and it's okay. February 14th is your day to put on a show and pull out all of the stops.
Valentine's Day simply isn't our thing.
Instead of falling victim to this Hallmark Holiday we choose to do things our own way (go figure). Instead of celebrating on February 14th, we kicked off the Hallmark Holiday early. With a flower delivery for Elle the week before Valentine's...
The flowers came with a note declaring how ridiculous Valentine's Day is...
Valentine's Day is stupid- everyone gets flowers and it's no fun sharing the spotlight. Today everyone has to be jealous of you. I love you like a back alley hooker loves crack.
Love, ME xoxoxo
Along with the flowers came tickets to the Monster Truck Show.
Ashley got a new Fitbit.
As far as the actual Hallmark Holiday itself? We enjoyed a relaxing day hanging out at the apartment drinking coffee and watching the pups wrestle while Fox News played in the background. Ashley munched on goodies from a lovely basket her parents sent us.
We had nice lunch date at Blind Rabbit, a burger and whiskey bar out at the beach.
For dinner we grabbed a pizza from Papa Murphy's and some rootbeer and icecream to make Root Beer Floats. Okay...so the pizza just happened to be heart shaped but we went with it. It was on sale.
When we got home from picking up pizza, we found a hideous bouquet of rainbow roses and 6 chocolate covered strawberries sitting on our front porch. It turns out the bouquet was delivered to the wrong house. We called the company to inform them of the mix-up- like the good samaritans we are.
We even tried calling the customer's number listed on the card but we ended up having a conversation (eh... kind of) with an extremely drunk man.
It was a just a typical Saturday in the 601 and really, we wouldn't have it any other way. Oh and that ring? We'll get to that soon.
