I've always sort of detested Valentine's Day, but now we celebrate the love we have as a family, which I like much better. Rather than hire a babysitter & leave Emerson at home, we like to spend the day together.
For JC, I made a card on Tiny Prints several weeks ago & got it for free with a promotional Facebook code. Emerson then helped decorate the envelope for her daddy.
We used some left-over birthday money to buy Lady & The Tramp for Emerson, & she quite enjoyed eating smarties out of the accompanying Lady & The Tramp bowl.
For the evening, we had a coupon & a gift card to Olive Garden, which made for a rather economical meal; especially considering the leftovers will be eaten for a meal tomorrow. Our evening's entertainment was watching the Breaking Dawn Part 1 DVD JC bought for my/our present.
After our gift card, coupon, & various birthday/Valentine's presents we only had to spend $4 out of pocket. Not too shabby! It was a nice quiet day at home, which is just how we like it.
Hope your day was filled with happiness & love!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great deal! I love that you got to eat out and for so little cost! Amazing!
ReplyDeleteI've always loved Valentine's but my husband has never acknowledged it as a holiday. But since I have all girls (4 to be exact) I totally justify it and have fun with it ;)
So glad you guys had a good V-day together as a family, totally what it's all about!
