Okay, so we're not really celebrating Valentine's day really big this year. We celebrated last weekend and decided that we wouldn't get each other presents.
But, what kind of husband would I be if I didn't get Abbey some flowers.
A few years ago, when Ava and Brookie got married, I went early the church with Lola to help Mr. Bob do the flowers.
The experience was invaluable for me, because he taught me how to arrange flowers. That meant I didn't have to pay crazy florist prices anymore. I could buy grocery store flowers and just do them myself.
So, yesterday, I went to Whole Foods (they have great flowers usually, but not as great as Central Market if there are any Texas readers out there!) and bought some flowers. This afternoon, I headed over to Manya's with Reed where the flowers were hiding and fixed them right up. Abbey was surprised.
We had not been out of the house since around 4:00 yesterday, so today at 5:00 we were stir crazy and decided to go Chili's for supper. We had a giftcard, so that was our main enticement to go. We called Uncle Bill and asked him if he wanted to meet us there.
Afterwards, we went to Target and did a little birthday party shopping. Can you believe that Reed is going to be 3 on Tuesday?!?!?!? We are in complete denial. Just imagine. In a little over a month from now, it will be the three year anniversary of referral and the birth of Flat Reed! What a blessing he has been in our lives!
We're so excited about getting a Flat "little girl" sometime in the future, too!
The waiter at Chili's apparently realized his service was less than stellar so he offered Reed a balloon.

super cool hats!
flowers, Chilis, bajoons, and Target. What a great day! Nice hat. Heh heh.
How did 3 get here so quickly?
Love Reed sporting those glasses! They were probably on clearance, too, since its post-Superbowl, huh?
What are the plans for Reed's birthday? I'm still debating here.
We SO miss Central Market in Ft. Worth!!! OH yes, they had the best salsa!!!
