A Valentine's Story

Once upon a time in a far away land there was a Texas Princess, we'll call her Denise. She was in love with a Texas Prince, Dave and it was Valentine's Day. They were both trying so hard to make the day special for the other. Dave woke up for the day, got ready, kissed his princess on the cheek whispering 'Happy Valentine's Day' in her ear while she still soaked up her beauty rest. Then he got into his chariot and rode off to work! Denise woke from her sleep and went to work herself. 

The whole week prior to this day Dave made Denise think that he had to work all Valentine's Day until 9:00 PM. Denise was bummed but knew she could make it work! Prince Dave sent the Princess a text message asking if he could pick her up for lunch, she agreed and twenty minutes later they were riding off for Taco Tuesday. YUM! After eating, Dave dropped the bomb that he tricked her and he didn't work that day after all and he had a fun day planned for them. Denise was so excited but knew all her plans were ruined because she thought she had all day long to turn those plans into a reality. He took her back to work which luckily was a slow day for her. And she immediately started trying to figure out how to make those plans still be a surprise if she didn't have all night to prepare!

She raced off to Target to get the supplies she needed to decorate her man's truck! She had to hurry cause she only had an hour window. Denise almost died four times, FOUR TIMES getting there, people are terrible drivers on Valentine's Day! As soon as she was finished decorating his truck she went into Dave's office and sat there with him while he finished up a few things. Not five minutes went by when people were already telling him that his truck had been decorated. Denise was so fed up and stressed about the rest of day that she started crying, right there in Dave's office! What a baby right? Fail.

Meanwhile back at the salon, A big beautiful bouquet of flowers was delivered for a girl who was not there! As Denise was sitting with Dave she received a phone call telling her she needed to come back to salon asap because "the boss" needed to speak with her.. Crap I'm in trouble!  She races back to the salon praying she didn't accidentally leave a curling iron turned on and the place wasn't on fire! She gets there and was surprised to find gorgeous flowers waiting for her. Now Dave is upset because they were supposed to be delivered while she was there, but she left. Fail.

So Dave and Denise both said screw it!

They went and did their Valentine's Day shopping together, those procrastinators! Once they got home they explained their gifts, spoiled Kyson, ate delicious Red Robin and watched Breaking Dawn.

The day started off a disaster but ended so perfectly!

 

 Dave's gift to me!

I hope everyone had a fabulous Valentine's Day!
