Happy Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day - 2009

I made Valentine's for Danny and my Mom (who is staying with us for a couple of weeks). Danny got a card from me and one from Christian (which included a picture he colored along with a picture of him).

I also decided to bake a bit for both my mom and hubby....

Brownies with butter cream frosting and fondant hearts







The "candy-box" is made out of chocolate chip brownie and fondant. The truffles are also chocolate chip brownies, some dipped in chocolate, and decorated.



This was Danny's heart...about 5 minutes after he woke up.

With my mom staying with us, Danny and I first headed to the gym to get a good workout. It was WONDERFUL! We came home, visited with Christian a bit, and then went to a late lunch and movie. We stopped at Borders in between lunch and the movie to pick up a Valentine gift for Christian...a Mo Williems book that was on the discount rack for $3!! We saw "He's Just Not That Into You"...which Danny picked out. Poor guy...it really was a chick flick. He bought me tulips at Trader Joe's on our way home. We arrived home just in time to tuck in our little boy...my mom had bathed him and had him ready for bed when we came in the door. He made me read his new book to him about 3 times.

What a PERFECT day!!
