This Valentine's Day happened to also be both of our days off. So we had a romantic family outing downtown. First stop, to buy 60 tulips in different colors at the Pike Place Market.
Second stop, buying perfume at Macy's. Not being a connoisseur of perfume, I did the safe thing and brought my valentine along. People who know me well will be surprised that I purchased perfume. Perhaps I'm growing up, or perhaps the baby in the house has punctured my no scent armor. Either way, a little whiff of perfume can be kinda sexy.
There was a sale, and I got a sweater as well.
After Macy's, we wandered back to the market and had lunch in a cafe looking out over Elliott Bay. It was warm in the sun and great to sit down.
Tonight, Mommy & Daddy have a bottle of wine and takeout chinese planned.
Bill got a great hat from his grandmother yesterday, that we will surely have photos of shortly. Many strangers commented on his cute hat in the market. He also got a Starbucks card from his Great Aunt, that we will surely drain. And a Teddy Bear from his other Great Aunt. Mommy got a box of the most beautiful grapefruits. Everyone is so thoughtful.
Happy Valentine's Day!
Bill says "Aaaack OOOOOOoooh".
