Sweet Surprises

IMG_8212 It was Autumn’s V-Day Party at day care today and I had signed up to bring drinks, but had forgotten to get some yesterday, so we woke up early this morning and went to WalMart to get some. Autumn had fun riding around in the cart.

IMG_8223 Today at work I got a text from Don asking if I was at work. I wrote back, “Of course I am, silly. Where else would I be?” Next thing I know, he’s standing in the doorway holding this gorgeous bag w/ red tissue paper.

IMG_8216 I was on the phone w/ an upset customer, and so he just came in and stood there by my desk w/ that bag behind his back. When I was still on the phone w/ the customer 2 minutes later, Don just set the bag on my desk and waved and then left, b/c he still had some stops on his route to finish!!! He had literally sped all the way from the area he techs in up to the office just to drop those off and then leave again! I felt so bad b/c I wanted to open his gift in front of him. I know I was blushing so bad and was bright red! Anyways, this was what was in the bag from Chocolate Secrets…a box of chocolate dipped strawberries and a box of OUT OF THIS WORLD truffle chocolates.

IMG_8218 The chocolate dipped strawberries were PERFECT and sweet and luscious. I even put the brown bow from the box in my hair. SO YUMMY!

IMG_8219 Don sent me a text telling me I could share w/ everyone in the office if I wanted to. I did, and as you can see, Liz enjoyed her chocolate truffle.

IMG_8220 It was the sweetest and most amazing surprise! Everyone oohed and ahhed about how good the chocolates were. They were gourmet and just melted in your mouth. Look at how fancy the chocolate drizzles on the strawberries are. Am I one lucky girl or what?

IMG_8226 Dad called to say that he was going to pick up Little Bug from daycare. I came home and guess where she was…in her bed drinking a bah bah! LOL! When she heard my voice, she was ready to get up. She had a little bag full of treats from her V-Day Party at daycare. Here she is enjoying her heart lollipop.

IMG_8227 I love this little top she’s wearing. I got it for her at WalMart and she was so excited to put it on this morning.

IMG_8233 Autumn (and Mom & Aunt Jeri) also enjoyed the truffles and chocolate dipped strawberries from Don. Autumn LOVES strawberries.

IMG_8235 Here is one of Autumn’s own Valentines that she got in her bag! LOL! At daycare they had told us to let the kids “write” their own name on the Valentines and then we should go back in and write their names so the other kids would know who it was from. Well, I forgot about it until late last night and Autumn was already asleep, so I actually did those scribbles on all of the Valentines. Pretty convincing, huh?

IMG_8240 Autumn has enjoyed having Aunt Jeri here. She went over and was being all cute and cuddly w/ her. They were so cute playing together. Autumn tickles her and Aunt Jeri pretends to laugh like it really tickles.

IMG_8247 Then it was time to race around the island in the kitchen. What a fun aunt. Aunt Jeri was the first visitor Autumn had in the hospital right after she was born. Maybe that’s why they have such a cute bond w/ each other!
