Valentine's Day streches into a week 


Kendall's valentine pancakes and Misty's flowers, originally uploaded by MCuthbert.

Valentine's Day started out with heart-shaped pancakes and pink milk, thanks to Misty.

Last night she and I went out to see the movie "Valentine's Day" then had a brief dinner at Whole Foods before moving on to the main course -- dessert at the "Wild About Chocolate" fundraiser for the Alabama Wildlife Center.

You may notice from the picture that some of Misty's flowers seem to be drooping -- that's because I got them for her on Monday so she'd have them to look at all week in her office. On Tuesday (when I took a day off work to get the garage door fixed) Kendall and I brought her some heart-shapped donuts from Krispy Kreme. Misty's co-workers suggested that I do something for her each day of the week, so I did my best at coming up with different things. I think their enthusiasm for this idea may have had more to do with wanting to suggest it to their own husbands, though.
