Happy Valentine's Weekend!

What a weekend! Friday, we went out to eat as a family at Lupe Tortilla...Braeden LOVES their flautas since it's a big "chip" that he can dip into queso :) We never leave that place clean, but happy and full nonetheless! Not to mention, they have great margaritas!

Saturday, we spent our day cleaning up with the windows open, and Braeden and Tex played outside ALL DAY... It was such perfect weather! Later, my mom graciously came and watched Braeden while Zach and I went out on our date. We orignally planned to eat at Tommy Bahama's in Market Street and then go to a movie... but at 5:15 the wait was already an HOUR, and our movie was at 7 (that I had already bought tickets for). So we waited about 30-45 min... did a little shopping, then headed back to Tommy B's, only to find out we probably wouldn't get a table until 6:45! So, we had to settle for a nice Valentine's dinner at Berryhill :) A step up from last year's dinner at Skeeter's, but that's another story. After 2 course romantic dinner, we headed to the movies to see... Valentine's Day! How appropriate! It actually was really cute, not a movie that I would want to see after Valentine's Day, but once every other year would be fine.

We started off the REAL Valentine's Day on Sunday by going to church. I knew it was going to be a good day when we left the house on time! I HATE being late to church, because we have to bring Braeden to the nursery and by the time we get into the sanctuary we have missed a lot, not to mention you have to ask people to move so you can sit down, and that to me is so embarrassing... anyways, we didn't have to do that this week :) In addition to being on time, it was so pretty outside... bright blue skies, warm sun, and a nice cool breeze. After church we went to lunch a Potbelly...not such a great experience. Their food is good, but NOT kid friendly. We ordered Braeden a PBJ sandwich and had to send it back it was so messy with jelly oozing everywhere. The next sandwich with light PBJ was still a mess. Fortunately B had fallen asleep so we didn't have to worry about finding another option. After an afternoon at Market Street with Braeden asleep in his stroller, we headed home so Zach could do s little yard work. Of course, Braeden wanted to help :) That night, Zach grilled filet mignon's...and they were FABULOUS! It has been a long time since we have made those at home, and hope it's not another year before we do that again!

That's about it...a nice low key, but fun-filled weekend with my family! I hope you had a great V-day as well!
Below is a pic of the flowers that Zach got me... he's finally learning that I don't like the usual type things, meaning red long stem roses. They're pretty, just too ordinary. Instead I like an arrangement of different flowers in colors that go with the house :) He did a great job as usual...I'm a lucky girl to have such a wonderful, thoughtful hubby!
