Valentine's Day

For Valentine's this year, Cassidy and I had a plan to "heart attack" Daddy's car at work. We were sneaky and Cassidy helped cover Derek's car with hearts just in time before his lunch break. And included Mounds candy bars. We parked out of sight and waited to catch the surprise in person. It couldn't have been more perfect. We had the chance to see all the action up close and loved seeing the smile on Daddy's face as soon as he realized what happened. I will never forget that fun experience and sharing the excitement with Cassidy. We kept laughing and Cassidy kept telling me to "Shhhh!" as if her daddy was going to hear our giggles. Of course then I immediately got a phone call from Derek and told him he can give us hugs in person since we were also in the parking lot. :)

When we got home we found that our front door was heart attacked while we were gone. It made us laugh! Thank you to whoever did that! We love you too! Also, Derek was surprised from the cute girls in his Sunday School class with some treats thanking him for being their teacher. It was so sweet of them. My friend and her kids offered to take care of Cassidy and feed her dinner so Derek and I could go out. We certainly felt the LOVE all weekend.

Derek bought me beautiful pink tulips (my favorite flowers) and took me to an Italian Restaurant. It was so tasty, especially since days prior I had food poisoning and didn't eat anything. Then on Sunday Cassidy received a gift from her parents-a crayon holder made out of fabric. She used it that day at church. It's sure cuter than a zip-loc bag. :)



We hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day too!
