Spectacular date night.

Our Valentine's date.

Since Ben had to take out some people from work on Valentines day, we went out Friday, instead.

 

Most of the restaurants in Colombo do not open until 7:00 for dinner, so we went out for some pre-dinner drinks. They had a pretty decent mocktail menu, which made it even more fun. It was a great restaurant/bar - outside seating, overlooking a lake.

After drinks, we had a fabulous dinner- they even had cakes with hearts in them. (I'm sure they were left over from the night before, but still fun.)

It was a great night.

My favorite part of my outfit, bracelets from Stella and Dot. So lovely.

 

 

Once again, Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day. 

Obviously this Valentine's Day I went with pink. I love pink, and I was so excited to pull out my favorite sparkly tank top, and pretty pink bow shoes. You can never have too much pink, right?
 Not on Valentine's Day.

Today was a pretty low key day in our house. My husband had to take some people to dinner for work, so I took the boys to McDonald's. They were so excited, and when I told them they were my Valentine's dates, they were thrilled, which of course made my day.

Ben and I will go out to dinner tomorrow night, so that will be nice- and less crowded. 

When Ben and I were first married, I saw an advertisement that said, "nothing says 'I Love You' like a heart shaped pizza".  Even though we never got that pizza, (I'm not sure we could afford the extra cost of having it shaped into a heart) every Valentine's Day, I tell him that I love him like a heart shaped pizza.  You know, it's the little things that keep the spark alive.
