{ valentine’s day 2013 }

Happy belated Valentine’s Day!  Valentine’s Day is one of those ‘either you love it or you hate it’ things.   We’ve had Valentine’s Day decorations up at our house for well over a month, as you can see from my past 2 monthly adoption posts, so obviously I am in the love it camp.

Usually we go away for the night/weekend for Valentine’s Day, but this year we decided to keep it low-key since we kinda have this little thing we’re saving up for…. ya know. ;)

To avoid the crowds, we decided to go out for dinner the day before Valentine’s Day.  Our first plan fell through because we found out the restaurant we had wanted to go to had closed but I’m kind of glad, because we went to Lalibela instead and had delicious Ethiopian food!  It was Funnel’s first time trying Ethiopian food.  Here’s my instragram I took of our spread:

On Valentine’s Day, I enjoyed a sweet surprise from my love…. Jolly Pirate donuts!

That night, we exchanged cards and split an Oreo Blizzard from Dairy Queen.

Then, on Sunday, we enjoyed a special dinner I made: Wedge Salads and a Lobster Angelhair Pasta:
