last weekend was a nice 3-day weekend. on Saturday, we went out to visit Grandma Joanie, check on her car, and give her a valentine. we were supposed to bake cookies with Linda but she was sick with the stomach flu. We decided to just drop by and give her a valentine to raise her spirits. :)
Saturday night, we saw Valentine's Day. we thought it was a cute movie. i know the critics slammed it, but really, what were they expecting? it's a cheesy chick flick. i like movies that have multiple stories intertwined, plus it's a Gary Marshall film (and i'm a sucker for the cheesy goodness he makes). the only bad part was Anne Hathaway. freakin' zipperhead. awful actress. and she plays an adult phone entertainer. so, we could've just done without her entirely. after the movie, we enjoyed some Claim Jumper. (which was lovely.)
Sunday, we exchanged gifts and made a delicious dinner at home: 
gabe grilled the steaks. i made the salad (w/homemade croutons), twice baked potatoes, and broccoli. we even broke out the fancy plates for the occasion! We had planned to ride our bikes to disneyland on Monday, but it was a little hot. we decided to drive. and it's a good thing! we were blacked-out. one of my valentine's presents was a cute little gardening set. so we decided to get plants and seeds to plant - hopefully i don't kill the plants! keep an eye out... in 80 dias i'm supposed to have some bell peppers!
here are the valentine's i made...
