Well vday started off just great - I made danny heart shaped pancakes with strawberries and
whipped cream (which I got more batter on me than in the pan). We decided that we would only spend $40 on each other this year - well with him getting me a car last year we had to set limits!).
I got danny tickets to the Sox in Detroit and his cousins are coming from Chicago - then we are staying at the casino there - more than $40 but heck, I havent spent it yet!
So from Danny - he made me stay in the bedroom and he said you cant leave for 8 mins and handed me a envelope.
Then i heard him him leave in the car. i had to go all around the house getting Transformer Vday cards with clues, the last one which said meet me at the place we got married - so i drove over and danny was on the raised platform with a rose. then we had lunch in the park and fed the ducks (colleen also fed the ducks day - awesome except it was probably 30 degrees colder here!)
it was kinda cold though. then we walked around and he stopped at the nail place and he had a mani/pedi apt for me! so i got super pampered for 3 hours! after that came home and we headed to BRIO all dressed up. i had a giftcard from a packaging vendor from the holidays so we used that. we stayed for 3.5 hours drinking and eating - score.
Came home and CRASHED.
Oh and he got us tickets to the Clippers minor league game on my Bday! Its the 30 so saturday night we are having a big 80's Danny/Margaux 30 party BUT Friday night at the ballpark is perfect.
Winter was wasnt too long this year but it was a cold one with lots of wind and snow. On todays walk with Parker, you could see signs of spring - people were outside, dogs were outside, blooms are peaking out of the ground....love this time of year! We can start our weekend bike rides - and especially on sunday evenings when we bike or drive to the local ice cream places for a cone.
We met Grady and his grandmom on our walk - Grady had a golden retriever Floyd who past away last year.
This is Casey out for a stroll with his parents.
more blooms
The bushes by the creek are starting to get color!
Off to a ballgame - dang we miss spring training.
The White Sox beat the Rangers in the 9th with a walk-off homer. Joni & Austin came! Danny and Austin got some good autographs and I got Harold Baines to sign my beer cup. Its all had on me.
We look soooo fake in this photo - pretty funny!
Only in the sun 3 hours and BAM farmers tan.
That night hit up Iguana Macs and Dos Gringos with Frank, Tanya, Leo, Magda, Josh "Pitboss", Austin and Joni.
Too many shots and a VERY late night. Didnt help Danny with being sick.
Had a BBQ at Kim and Garys...I had to take some photos!
Getting in a little sunshine before leaving.
Baby Grace loves her tequila! JK
