You make me smile



One of my favorite songs and ringtones right now and would be the perfect way to describe Valentines Day 2011. Being that Valentines Day is a crazy big holiday in the wedding and dining industry I had to work, but since it fell on a Monday night and I have the most amazing assistant I got the night off! So I got to enjoy my day and spend time with my amazing boyfriend.



Auntie Tarah and Uncle Thomais where visiting for the week so Sydney got to stay home and relax with them all day. Tarah started off the day with a gifts which included a heart shaped pancake mold for Sydney which was followed by adorable "english" pancakes, I was already "working away" so I missed them but they were so cute.


Being that it was Valentines Day and all it was a very busy day for wedding inquires, as expected. I talked to quite a few soon to be grooms and very excited soon to be brides. My assistant was so great and even booked a wedding! Then of course the getting everything ready for the big Valentines Dinner. I was mostly responsible for last minute details and getting the centerpieces on the tables. I did get to enjoy the view of dozens of roses that became the centerpieces for all the tables. Not a bad view if I do say so myself. It smelled amazing in my office all day because of them. I got off "early" and headed home to chocolates and flowers from my boyfriend! He's so sweet, I insisted he not buy me flowers but he had to outdo himself with a great arrangement.


I was "crafty" filling a heart shaped candy box with sour and hard candy, since Matt is not a chocolate fan. Matt and I didn't have dinner reservations because I knew it would be a complete zoo out and not sure what time I would get off work so we just had a relaxing night. We drove around a little, did a little shopping (always fun) had some CPK pizza and I had a few chocolate martinis and strawberries. It was a great day over all and for the first time ever I am looking forward to next years Valentines Day, I hope it is filled with just as much love, laughter and amazing memories as this year.
