Valentine's weekend started for us Thursday night after Will got off work. All the "snow talk" convinced us that we needed to make a trip to the grocery store considering we had no food in the house! Will went off to the grocery store while I stayed home & did laundry. My Valentine came back with these...

We slept in Friday morning, hoping to wake-up to snow. No snow! I honestly didn't think it was coming. But sure enough, a little after noon, it started coming down!

The kitchen window is Missy's favorite spot to people/dog watch. She loved watching the snow come down!
So Friday afternoon while the snow was falling, I opened the back curtains so we could watch the snow fall out our two big glass doors. Since I'm really in a fitness phase right now, I convinced Will to do a yoga/pilates DVD with me. It was so calming doing yoga while watching the snow come down. Missy wanted to do it, too...

Millie's first snow!
For dinner Friday night, Will made vegetable soup (Greymamma's recipe) & grilled cheeses! Perfect dinner for a snowy night!
We then got dressed & took the girls for a walk in the snow. Next to our complex is a huge grassy field. We walked over there and let the girls play. We let Tini off her leash because she usually stays right with us. Missy is an escape artist so she doesn't get as much freedom. The entire time Tini sprinted all around the field, running as fast as she possibly could! When she would get tired she would lie down and just eat the snow! She LOVES the snow!
Saturday night Will cooked a very romantic dinner! He bought my favorite wine - Woodbridge Chardonnay!
On Valentine's night, Will cooked another INCREDIBLE dinner! We had planned to just stay in, rent Couple's Retreat on demand, & cook a fun "tropical/beachy" meal. Will made tilapia, hush puppies, corn on the cob, & roasted green beans sprinkled with Parmesan cheese. Definitely the best tilapia I've ever had! We also made pina-coladas...mmm!

After our walk with the girls, we decided to go over to the Churchill's house to find a place to go sledding. But by the time we got over there, the snow was almost completely melted! I was amazed at how fast it went! Instead of sledding, we just went & ate lunch at Chick-fil-A! After lunch, Will & I went & bought Taken & went home & watched it with the girls. After the movie, I did one of Jillian Michael's workout videos while Will started cooking dinner...

Valentine's morning Will woke up & made me french toast in bed! After breakfast we went for a 3 mile run/walk to campus & back. The rest of the day we just laid around & watched movies. Lazy days are my absolute favorite!

Overall, the entire weekend was soooo much fun! It was so nice to just stay home, watch movies, cook meals, & be completely wrapped up in each other! We love going to Gainesville for the weekends to see family & friends, but staying home & relaxing was exactly what we needed!
