Since Jared and I have been dating, we have been able to celebrate Valentine's as a dating couple, an engaged couple and now a married couple. We also have always opted to work on Valentine's Day, and then spend February 15th together. So we stuck with the tradition this year!
We saved a Harkins Movie Theater gift card that we received for Christmas and an Olive Garden gift card from the wedding. We put them in the Valentine's Day stash, so that we didn't have to worry about finances. Jared bought me a beautiful bouquet of red roses a couple of days before and I had him a cookie made from Paradise Bakery that said, "I love my hubby." We slept in on Monday, had a small breakfast, exchanged cards and then got ready for our day date. We were both a little giddy about exchanging cards since it was our first time of buying ones for wife and husband. At Olive Garden, we did the wine taste testing which we enjoyed since we are trying to learn the exact wines we like. We are both white wine people, the red ones are just to dry for us. Then we saw the movie, "Valentine's Day," which was cute and fit the occasion. One thing we liked about the movie was there was a couple who were best friends, always dated the wrong person, then ended up together, which is the same story for us.
We also felt very loved by our family! Jared's parents sent us a Valentine's Day package from Tennessee, with loving cards, a remote control helicopter for Jared and a foot massager for Kayla. Kayla's parents sent us a card and a gift card to P.F. Changs, which we will save for another fun date.
We still love getting the mail and seeing it addressed to, "Mr. and Mrs. Hrabak," hehe. Kayla is in the process of getting her name legally changed, it takes some time and some money to change it all...a long and tedious task, but well worth it.
We hope you all had a wonderful Valentine's Day!
Love,
J and K
