I am a lucky, lucky girl

I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day! As Garrett would say, I heart Valentine's Day! I had a fantastic one. First of all, I woke up to a TON of snow...I even had about 6 inches on my BBQ grill that is on my covered deck. It was insane!

My roommate Rachael and I decided to brave the snow and head out at 5:30 a.m. to deliver some Valentine treats to some friends on our way to the gym. I think we are crazy because we totally got my car stuck right in front of one of our friend's houses. I was so worried that they were going to wake up and see us out there trying to dig my car out of the snow. Or even worse, I was worried we were going to have to go knock on their door and solicit help.

But luckily after about 15 minutes of digging and pushing, we managed to get the car unstuck by ourselves without having to resort to asking for help and getting caught. And I think that they didn't even see us out there. We successfully delivered the treats and even made it to the gym without any further incidents.

At work we had a cookie decorating contest. It just reminded me of how I work with some extremely creative people. Some of those cookies were seriously amazing works of art!

Then these gorgeous flowers got delivered to my work for me. Wow! I am such a lucky girl! There was a note attached that said, "I thought you might like some tropical flowers to accompany this 'tropical' weather..." How sweet is that?

Mmmmm....they smell so good and they are so pretty! After work, Matt cooked me a lovely dinner and we watched the movie, Stranger Than Fiction. Some of our friends have been talking about it recently and I had never seen it, so Matt decided that I needed to watch it. So we did. And I liked it.

I am such a lucky girl to have such a sweet Valentine! Thank you Matt! Happy Valentine's Day!

I glad you had a great V-day. I'm very impressed that you got up at 5:30 to go to the gym. I have grand plans to do that, but my pillow always wins the debate!
