So, my wonderful husband totally rocks. For the big day this year, he arranged a date with two other couples we know. We went to the Yamato Sushi & Steakhouse (or something like that) where we ate yummy Japanese food set on fire right before our faces, and yes, I even tried sushi (I was right, I don't really like it). Our chef was a total riot! At one point, he went to squirt more sauce into one of Amy's bowls, but then he started squirting it right at her (and because I was sitting next to her, I thought me, too)--horrible juicy brown ... string! I laughed until I cried. He also really liked to play with our food, making a lobster hobble around until he set it on fire, too.
Maybe you had to be there. Maybe you have to like playing with fire, I don't know.
In any case, the guys also arranged for a barbershop quartet to come and sing lovey-dovey Valentine's songs to us, and they made us beautiful tissue paper roses (Amy has promised to dry hers, and I'm going to hold her to it...hmm...maybe we could set those on fire, too?).
Maybe I'll go put all the matches up now. {wink}
Have a good Valentine's Day. I know we will. We have one on antibiotics for strep, one with an ear infection, and two more running fevers. Wahoo!
Sounds like paradise in parenthood! Happy valentines!
ReplyDeleteProps to Bobby! He is such a keeper! Sounds like a really nice time. Sorry about your kids..can I just say; you're NOT alone. I'm SOOOO tired of all of us being sick with something. I just had a root canal done this a.m.! Top that off with just getting over pnuemonia, ear infection & sinus infection. UGHHHHH!!!! Get well Haynes family!
ReplyDeleteOh I am so glad to see you change your background as well. Out with the old in with the new. Loved the valentines story, am a little concerned about your love of fire.
ReplyDeleteThe sickness at your house, don't share that love on Valentines Day okay. Keep that love to yourself! I've got enough of my own nasty love over here. Oh that didn't sound quite right.... anyhow, I hope you all get better soon. I sure hope we all do. I feel like having myself doused in bleach and Lysol. OOOOOHHHHH I know, FIRE. Fire sterilizes everything. ;)
ha ha ha I meant to say douse my house, not myself. When I read that I thought oh goodness, she is going to worry about me setting myself on fire. ha ha ha It is clearly waaaaaayyy past my bedtime.
ReplyDeleteTaryn, thanks for making my entire week. I needed a really good laugh, and you provided! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteWe had a kid throw up on V-day at our house. Fun stuff.
ReplyDeleteWow! Cool date!
