My Funny Valentine{s) | 2015

truth be told, Jordan and I didn't even think about this love holiday until thursday last week. and the conversation went something like 

"do we have or want to make plans for this weekend?" 

"i dunno..?"

pretty much sums it up in that many words.  much (much) to my surprise, Jordan had already arranged child care for he and I to have a date night on actual Valentine's Day.

right as I learned this little tidbit of information a pig flew in and nearly clobbered my windshield.  

close call. 

I can give Jordan more credit than that - he is actually the romantic in our marriage.  

and I love it.

this week has been less than stellar- the weepy pregnant woman I am has felt up to doing very little. 

Friday my boss smoked a boatload of brisket and pork and held a feast for the staff at work.  Parker, Jolie, and me made our way to work for the v-day festivities and some really delicious food.

Jordan happened to be working his part-time job out that way, so he came by and took advantage of the grub, too! he and my boss are practically brothers from different wombs, so it is always a pleasure on both sides.

while we don't have a cutesy card this year (I'm actually pretty disappointed about that.. time got away from me), we do have these amazing hairbows c/o shelby chic.  everyone complimented:)

hairbows c/o shelby chic // vest / old navy

dress / baby gap (sold out)// leggings / circo @ target // moccs c/o freshly picked 

 i asked if i could be their valentine..

 ..but i was totally denied.  they'll always have a valentine in each other for sure.

 ..give me a sugar.

 ..it is such a hame my children have no personality.

 ..i mean.  really.
none.

 they make me so flippin' happy, its unreal.

friday night, we settled in for a quiet dinner at home.

egg & avocado tacos were the last minute consensus for the four of us.

a quick bath and bedtime left Jordan and I with grey's anatomy and blue bloods on the dvr.

perfection.

saturday |day| was low key.  after nap Jordan and I loaded the girls and their pack and play's up and headed for a sleepover at BB and Papa's house.  we left them after many many many sugars goodbye and made our way out for date night.

Matt started his series on James last week and there was no way we could go the weekend without hearing his message this week, so the 5 o'clock service was the perfect start of our v-day celebrations.

IF you get the chance, check out his podcasts over this series. we are only two weeks in and it is absolutely amazing.

after church we decided to stay close to home and grab a bite to eat at blue goose - MEXICAN! (a favorite and regular spot for us).  everything was delicious, and much to the desire of this pregnant belly.

we had grand plans for dinner & and movie, but there was nothing out we hadn't seen yet.. and we are probably thee only people on the planet with zero desire to see 50 shades of grey..
SO - home to the dvr once again.. but not without a stop at target to fill our basket with clearance valentine's day candy galore.
home to an empty house we came..it was the perfect date. but we did miss the girls tremendously.  we even turned on the sound machines left in their room - neither of us could sleep without the background noise we are so attuned to.

I hope you all were loved and hugged the most by your people!
happy valentine's day!
