I have to say...Zac really outdid himself this year for Valentines Day.
I received a lovely bouquet of tulips at the office. It's always kinda been a dream for me to get flowers at work...especially since I've never really had a job...so this was exciting.
But the icing on the cake: coming home to a clean house. Ahhh, nothing better than that!! (Take note you men...if any men even read this) Granted, the house was clean a mere 5 days before for Zac's homecoming, but soon became an explosion of camo to be laudered, sea bags, and other military paraphenalia that has yet to find a home. So a big public smooch and thumbs up to my wonderful husband :) Best Valentines ever....which would've been great JUST because he was HOME!
[Side note: YES he's home!! Can't wait to share all about his homecoming!!]
We broke our "tradition" - well, default tradition - of pizza on Valentines day. Through college, mostly because of various testing schedules, lack of cars, etc. we just celebrated Valentines with pizza. This year we upgraded with yummy steaks (compliments of this PW recipe). Most of all though, I'm just so thankful to be able to spend an evening with my love.
A special XOXO to all my lovely friends who weren't with their loves this Valentines for various military trainings, deployments, exercises, or duties. You are loved, even if from afar :)
