Then the two of them went to the store to buy me a meaningful gift:
Nothing says I love you quite like a plunger. Okay, but in Noah's defence, last night (it being Friday the 13th and all) someone did a ghastly thing in our toilet (I wont name any names) and as a result, we had a bit of a flood. I woke up in the middle of the night needing to relieve my bladder and was informed that I should under NO circumstance flush the toilet. Well, in a 3 AM stupor, I flushed the toilet anyway. Sure enough, the bathroom flooded. Noah came to my rescue and helped with the clean up.
Then as if a plunger weren't enough, he made my Valentine dreams come true too by taking me to an antique store and getting me this swell piece of jewelry. Side note: I've recently become an "Antique Roadshow" junkie, I'm hooked even though we don't have TV so I can never watch it. Anyway, the piece I got is probably worth thousands even though we paid mere pittance for it. And I absolutely love it.
Following antiquing, we all headed to Not Just Popcorn (as seen on Food Network), where they make over 240 flavors of popcorn--I know, could Indiana get any better?? We went on a tour where we got to see them make cheddar and mocha flavored popcorn. Gabby and Alex could hardly contain their excitement when they were invited to have samples. I just wish I had brought my camera, sadly I have no pictures of our popcorn experience. I guess we'll just have to do the tour all over again.
Now if you'll excuse me . . .
Happy Valentines Day.

A plunger, pretty jewelry, popcorn, and a 3am surprise! Who could ask for anything more!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THE PENDANT!!! Gorgeous! And you purchased the perfect fabric to go along with it when you were in China. I still have it. Maybe we can share and both make blouses. Guess what my husband gave me for Valentine's Day? A picture (11x17) of Barack Obama. No kidding. It's terribly romantic, because it makes me remember all the times we snuggled while watching MSNBC's coverage of election returns.
ReplyDeleteBut where do I put it? The room needs to have a theme. I'm at a loss.
We did have a wonderful Valentine's Day and remembered Grandpa Delbert Valentine Groberg as well. He would've been 103 years old.
Wow...I haven't seen a tie on a doorknob in a long time. Go Noah!
