Valentine's Day

I know for many of you Valentine's day may not be a big deal, but for hopeless romantics like me I love it! My husband and I usually don't buy gifts or do anything big but we do try to spend some extra time together and do something special for one another. This year Jeremy decided to take over. He wanted to plan a Valentine's day extravaganza! He said the goal of Valentine's day was to de-stress me, make me feel special, and most of all show me how much he loves me. And man did he do just that!

The week began with small hints about V-day. I got three hints total: 1) there would be food involved but we are not going out, 2) there was something hidden in the house, and 3) we would be doing an activity. I was soo excited I couldn't hardly wait!

Valentine's day begins with me waking up to a trail of rose petals that lead into the kitchen to a candlelight breakfast, a dozen red roses, and a very sweet card. After breakfast Jeremy tells me we are going to go to a movie together and go see "He is Just Not That Into You" because he knows how much I love chick flicks. The movie was great and we had a lot of fun together! if the day had stopped there I would have been one very very happy wife, but it didn't, it just got better. Jeremy gave me some time to study this afternoon (which if you are in nursing school you understand just how romantic that really is), he then made a candlelight bubble bath for me and had the whole bathroom covered in rose petals. While I was taking my bubble bath and relaxing he worked on the next part of our evening. I came out from my relaxing bath to another trail of rose petals and found a homemade candlelight dinner. He made my favorite chicken parmigiana with garlic bread and spaghetti. Yummy! As I walked into the kitchen I noticed a gift bag from Kay's jewelers on the table. He handed me the gift bag and inside was a heart shaped cubic zirconia necklace! It is beautiful!! He has never bought me jewelery except for my wedding rings! it was soo romantic!After dinner he pampered me even more with a pedicure (Ziggy even helped him) and a back massage! It was amazing! All day long I felt like the most special girl in the world, I felt relaxed and I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt just how much Jeremy loves me.


I am truly blessed to have an amazing husband like Jeremy who is not afraid to show me just how much he loves me. I adore him more than he will ever know! He truly is my best friend and the man of my dreams. I hope you all had an amazing Valentine's day like I did and showed those dear to you just how much you love them!
