Valentine's Day 2012

I love Valentine's Day. I know many think it's a day created by the card company - maybe it is, maybe it isn't but I love it anyway. It's a day that gives you an excuse to go out to dinner, eat things like chocolate even though your diet says you shouldn't and to be extra lovey-dovey to EVERYONE! (ok, maybe not everyone, but you can still be nice to everyone and be extra lovey-dovey to the people in your life you love.

This Valentine's Day was the first apart from my boyfriend, Jeremy, since I moved from Maine to New York :(
(but I was able to help my brother paint his house. what girl doesn't want to paint instead?? lol It was fun just not your typical V-Day). But even apart, my day was made special by my boyfriend and my parents: a fun dinner at Brown's Brewery where we all ate way too much and some fun times to follow.


Coming home from painting to get ready for dinner, I found a surprise from my guy waiting for me:

There's nothing more exciting than finding out someone sent you flowers! <3
Not that there was any doubt who it'd be from - but seeing addressed to "Cat McDade" I knew it'd be Jeremy :) he's the only one to mail me stuff addressed to my nickname
Inside we some beautiful tulips <3
 in a lovely red vase (which goes great in my room)

...and underneath guess what I found??? CHOCOLATE <3 <3 <3
It's not like the little heart boxes from Walmart where there's 3 maybe 4 candies inside - there are 8!

 
How beautiful!!





 
My super cute gifts from my parents - the owl! Too cute from my mom, as well as the stylish boot toppers and colorful socks. My dad picked out the shirt - didn't he do a good job?? :) 





Jeremy did a good job, didn't he <3 Looking forward to our visit when we can do our belated Valentine's Day date :)
