Valentines and Birthday

My sweet husband surprised me with a weekend getaway to a friends cabin for Valentines Day. This was such a surprise and a very welcomed break because Lyle has been working 24/7 lately and busy season hasn't even started yet. So we left with some friends Saturday night and drove up to Pinetop, AZ and began our wonderful three day weekend. We played so many games, took walks, played in the snow, watched movies, and even relaxed in their jacuzzi bath tub-ahhhh! On the way home Monday, the boys couldn't resist the awesome sledding hill and so we stopped and Jen and I watched while to boys went crazy.

The next weekend was my birthday and even though Lyle kept telling me that the getaway was also for my birthday, he surprised me in the morning with BEAUTIFUL pink roses (and I mean these were GORGEOUS) and CHOCOLATE!

Then he allowed me to drag him around town and go shopping for multiple things (this doesn't happen often at all!-PLUS he was getting sick and didn't feel good. He was SUCH a good sport!). We then had dinner at Red Robin and finished the perfect day off cuddling in our pjs on the sofa with a good movie.

He really went out of his way to make both weekends special and I am so lucky to have such a wonderful husband!
