I can't believe it's Valentine's Day already. I'm not a huge fan of this Hallmark Holiday, but I can deal with it. Chris and I not big celebraters, but we usually do a card and some candy or something. Chris will occasionally get me flowers, but I'd prefer he not spend that much money on flowers!! I have to say though that the best Valentine's Day we ever had together was in 2003 when Chris was deployed. I know, a good Valentine's when deployed?? Well, he had been emailing a radio personality in Oceanside, CA (where we were living at the time) and asked them to play our wedding song on the radio. He sent such a sweet email that they read on the air then played our song (I don't want to miss a thing by Aerosmith in case you're wondering!). They even recorded it and sent me a copy of it, which we still listen to occasionally. So yeah, our favorite Valentine's.
Now we get to spend Valentine's Day with Elijah. Not that he cares right now! He did wear his Valentine's Day bib today, so he was soooo cute! Not that he really has to try or anything! I have to say that we didn't spend Elijah's first Valentine's Day with him. Chris and I were invited to the Officer's Club by a friend for a 5 course dinner (complete with a glass of wine per course!!!!) We were a little hesitant at first because last time we went to a funcion at the O-club, we felt like we were at a Geriatric convention!!! But it was a really good meal with very nice people and we throughly enjoyed it. But we missed Elijah! Nana and Granddaddy stayed with him tonight.
We hope that everyone has (had!) a wonderful and safe Valentine's!
