Valentines with my Boys

Gone are those Valentine Days when we use to spend on romantic and expensive candlelit dinners, dress up for the occasion and get all hyped up anticipating what you'll receive (and I guess for the men, get all stressed out with what they'll give!). Dada and I graduated from this since we had you, Henri boy. Phew! Thank God!  I remember that last year we just spent it in our cozy apartment in New York. I cooked up a special dinner for us (nothing really fancy) and opened up a bottle of wine. This year, it was all about spending it together as a family! :)

Thank you to you and Dada for being my Valentines :)

6:45 AM - Started the breakfast preparations downstairs because Henri was up already. 

8:45 AM - Dada finally wakes up. Breakfast is served.

It was a very straightforward morning meal (since Dada doesn't really like eating heavy at the start of the day) composed of a fruit platter and an assortment of  warm bread with butter and jam, HEART-SHAPED fried eggs (yes! once a year I get to use of egg-shaper!) and sweetened spam with freshly ground black pepper. 

Plus some tomato juice to go with it!

 The three of us enjoyed eating on the bed especially Henri because he always just saw our bed as a place to sleep! hahaha :) While munching on our meal, we realized that the Grammy's was being aired lived so we decided to move the breakfast trays to the family hall way so we can watch it!

1:30 PM -  Special Delivery. I was surprised with a dozen red roses from "Santa"

2:30 PM - We head to Batangas because I had to do some work at Corito's Garden. Spent a few hours there and left about 6:45.

8:30 PM - We arrived at home already. We were suppose to just bring down our stuff and eat a quick Chinese meal with Hip and Henri but they already prepared dinner for us... Fly-over chicken from Davao! Ninang Josie also sent us a pyrex of Baked Macaroni (Fresh out of the oven) - it was still hot when their driver delivered it! :) Thanks Sisons!

We ended the night watching the replay of the Grammy's because we didn't get to finish it that morning and eating Maltesers and Prunes. Why the combo? Hmmm I'm not sure how we ended up having those two things for dessert! Hahaha! Very random indeed.
