Valentines Day is here!

Well not really...it is acually Saturday...but it feels like it for me. Jason and I have never made a big deal of valentienes...day just dinner usually. But lately I haven't been wanting to deal with the crowds. Last year was nice Jason cooked a romantic dinner and I set up a candle lit table.

But this year wow! It all started yesterday...


UPS delived a package...a usual thing at my office, however, this one was for me. I looked at my boss thinking that it was from him...my long awated Christmas gift! He said no. I looked at the lable it was from Costco? I didn't order anything I thought. Oh well..so I opened it! A pretty red box tied with a gold ribbon...but the strange thing was the box was insliated with aluminum bubble wrap and an ice pack? HUH? So I opened the box and to my supprise a box of 6 chocolate covered strawberries and r6 aspberry flavored truffles. OMG! I was shocked but knew they had to be from Jason! I finally found a note that read "Will you be my valentine? I love you" AWWW! So no picuture yet I will update with one later...but let me tell you they are yummy!

I came into work today and while I was on the phone FedEx brought a package. I didn't even look at it and reached over to sign the machine and continued with my phone call. Finally when I was finished I looked over remembering that there was just a package delivered. It was a strange package but I knew what it was imediatly...not that I have ever had a package like it delivered to me before but have seen a few from co-workers. I grinned as I began to open it and stopped thinking that this would be a great thing to document with photos...I have been really into scrapbooking lately...so I grabbed a camera. WOW was this the most intensley wrapped package I have ever opened. It was velcroed, plastic wrapped, rubber banned and foam wrapped with water around the stems. It even came with a vase. I carfully took it apart, filled the vase with water, cut the stems and put it in the vase...I did not do a great job with aranging it yet but I will do that when I get home.

So as I said before my valentines day is here! I will post photos of the flowers bleow...

Well...sorry it took so long but here are the photos of the strawberries that I got...

This is the beautiful red box with gold ribbon it was wrapped in.
And finally the half eaten strawberries and rasberry truffles...sorry I could not help myself...I did not have my camera with me and they were so good!
