My Valentine's

Last year hubby surprised me for Valentine's...  We went to one of his aunt's house supposedly to have coffee and cake with them, only when we got there they gave me the local newspaper to see an "article" and my surprise was that in the newspaper there was a picture of hubby where he said the plans for Valentine's... and how he had arranged some "family members" to babysit for us.... Only then I understood we weren't really going to stay with his aunt... and we went to a very nice place for dinner, just the two of us... it was really cool

This year I had no idea we were planning on doing anything... But yesterday... you know, I cleaned the house and did whatever I always have to do here... and then he asked me if I wanted to go anywhere... I told him I just wanted to go for a drive because I've been home for too long with either my girl or me being sick.... He asked me if I'd like to go to the house of a couple of friends who just had their baby and I told him it would be nice to stop by, (they live far so I had to make sure I carried enough stuff for our daughter since we were going to be away for a while), hubby didn't seem to be in a hurry at all... and we left home at 4, then hubby took another road and we ended up at the house of another couple, who are our best friends, once we turned into the road that goes to their house I said: "Are we going to A and J's? he really made a face like "oops" and he laughed... he said: "Oh! my! what am I doing? we were going to Jess and Josh!? oh! well... we are here so let's stop by and say hi... I truly believed he made a mistake... I mean... we hang out and talk so much about A and J that I thought he just had them on his mind and made the mistake of driving to their house... once we got there I said... sorry we didn't call... we are here by mistake... so I started telling them how hubby drove to their house instead of the other friends' ... they were smiling and hubby said: "Paloma, they are babysitting for us! Let's go" HUH??? Just like that? I had everything that was needed for our daughter so it was fine but I was really really surprised, my friends were part of it all along of course! Hubby went to the car to get our girl's bag.... I was very excited and said bye to them I had no clue what we were going to do... Once I got to the car... this is what I found on my seat:


A bear, a card and a chocolate "rose" .... Once in the car I opened the card and... this is what I found:

Wow! But before going to the movies, we went for dinner... and of course ... I took pictures of that too...

 

We had an incredible time! And our daughter did too, when we were back she was sleeping peacefully... once we got home and to end our fabulous date... we had a cup of coffee...

I feel so spoiled right now!
Happy Valentine!!!
