V-Day Part 1

Our Valentine's Day started on Thursday, but will continue today because of how it happened to be on a school night.  So before Valentine's Day, I was trying to figure out what to do/get for Robert.  Of course I turn to Pinterest to answer all my questions, but I couldn't really find much.  I did find cinnamon roll hearts, and I knew that Robert loved his mom's cinnamon rolls, so I figured I'd ask her for her recipe.  Except I wasn't sure if she made hers from scratch or bought the dough somewhere.  I texted her and asked her, then proceeded to tell her about my surprise.  She just told me she would make them for me.  Luckily, Robert has class at 8 in the morning on Thursdays, so I told her she could come at around 8.  That way they'd be baked and ready for Robert to eat right when he got home.

Thursday morning came.  I kept trying to get Robert out of bed (without seeming obvious) by saying things like: "You gonna go to class today?" (he sometimes skips that class) and "Okay, you need to get up and get ready for class!  You're gonna be late!"  As I'm getting ready for the day, Robert says, "Yay!  I got an email from the professor last night and he cancelled class for Valentine's Day!"  Are you kidding me?  That was what I thought when he shared this "exciting" news.  Well, my surprise was ruined.  My mother-in-law showed up at around 8:30 and we made the pink frosting while the rolls finished rising.  Robert knew we were having cinnamon rolls.  He says he was still surprised, but in my mind it was a ruined surprise.  The cinnamon rolls turned out great though!

After going to one of my classes, I went to work.  To my knowledge, Robert was taking a test for one of his classes, so I was really surprised when he showed up with flowers and Reese's!

He ended up just running errands instead of taking his test.  He decided to take his test today instead.  After work/class, I came home to this:

Hm... I wonder where that leads to?  Haha jk.

Robert ordered food from Saigon (he got me pho cuz he knows I love pho!) and we ate our dinner while watching Whitney.  Then we did homework.  What an eventful night.  We watched a movie after our homework too, but went to bed right after since we had an 8 a.m. class this morning.

 Yeah... don't remember why I took this picture.

 

Funny story before I end part one of our Valentine's Day.  See all the balloons in the above pictures?

During the night they started losing their helium and in the middle of the night I hear/feel Robert swatting at something.  There were a few of balloons falling down on us as we slept, and the ribbon on one of the balloons was tickling his face. He was swatting at the ribbon first, but the balloon eventually got low enough that he swatted it away.  It doesn't sound that funny as I write it, but it was at 3 in the morning haha.  Maybe you just had to be there.

Stay tuned for V-Day Part 2!
