I don't honestly know why everyone makes a huge deal about Valentine's Day.
Russ and I have been together for almost 4 years and this is our first Valentine's Day we have spent together. Russell is always at work so I spend the day with Gibson, I make it a big deal for him but it's so hard to resist when you see a child's eyes light up when he knows there is a holiday. Any holiday. Even when it is something he doesn't really care about as long as he can run around telling everyone "Happy Balindine's Day!"
He kept trying to convince me that he had to marry me. His dad had to share me today because it was his day to get married and I am the only girl he knows that Loves him as much as I do. Ahhh kids, gotta love 'em!
So anyways, our first <3 Day was nice. It wasn't anything special which made it special in itself. First I woke up with the kids, (I let Russell sleep in) then afterwards we had some friends of ours come over. We got all ready to go and off we went to West Edmonton Mall. That is the worst mall in the world to go to on any occasion, but holy wow! it was I-N-S-A-N-E today! So whatever, we get there and we all split up. I had to go there with my girlfriend for bridesmaid dress shopping (BTW~The dresses are tres cute!) After we finally found eachother again, the first thing my lovely husband says to me is "Hunny, will you be my Valentine?" So cute, yet so cheesy, but soo Russell.
When we got home, Russ told me to relax and take a nap on the couch, which I took full advantage of, I woke up to him telling me supper was ready. So adorable! He's a great cook, but I wasn't really expecting it, to be honest.
All in all, it was a great day. No huge, fancy dinner. No gifts. No cards. Nothing. Just the 4 of us spending time together, remembering why we fell in Love with eachother in the first place.
Yet another great reason why I married the man I did.
Happy Hallmark Day!
Signing off for the night,
