Valentine's Day!!!

It was my year to plan Valentine's and a week before I still had no idea what I was going to do. We are trying our hardest to save $$$ and so I tried to spend as little as possible. I have to admit I think I succeeded in that. I only spent $42 for out little Valentine's date including dinner, and I thought it turned out so well.

For any of you who don't know Brandon proposed to me in Hawaii. I decided since we don't have the money to go to Hawaii, I would bring Hawaii to us. First off I wrote a note for Brandon and gave it to him Monday morning........

Inside the envelope the note read this............

Of course I meant laid as in a flower lei but any typical guy would not think that way. Any way I get a text message from Brandon Monday morning saying, "ha-ha you are awesome! I love you!" Less than an hour later I get another text message saying, "By the way you have now made it impossible to focus and be at work lol." My plan was totally working.

Any way here is how I decorated. I know pretty cheesy but I thought it turned out cute! I found this funny picture to set the scene of the ocean.

Here is the kitchen table!

I also decorated our side tables and speakers in the living room. I gathered a few pictures of us and our friends while we were in Hawaii.

Brandon took a picture of this really pretty sunset that we watched in Hawaii. My good friend Elise painted this picture of it. The painting turned our awesome!

These little lights along the railing were awesome I found them at all-a-dollar!

For dinner we had Mo Betta Steaks!!! This place is awesome they have the most delicious pulled pork. It totally reminds me of the pig we ate at the Polynesian Cultural Center. And for dessert I was able to find some Pineapple ice cream. Not nearly has good as the Dole Plantation but it worked.

Our Valentine's turned out awesome and Brandon was completely shocked when he got home. When he walked in I had his Lei ready and the first thing I said was let me Lei you. The note finally clicked to him and he just busted up laughing. I'm so grateful for Brandon and all he does for me. He's the best and I'm so glad he is such a good sport, and willing to do anything to make me happy!

I do have to say this. Brandon showed the note to his supervisor Tara at work and another guy. Well the next day Brandon wore his lei to work and when he walked in he said, "Hey Tara I got laid within the first 30 seconds of walking inside." She turned around quickly and said, "seriously?" And then she saw his lei and thought it was the funniest thing. I had no idea he wore the lei to work but I thought it was cute! Any way I hope everyone had a good Valentine's Day!
