Annabel's Day At The Office

A Tombleson Valentine's Day

I know Valentine's Day has come and gone and it's almost St. Patty's Day but I promised to post a V Day blog so here it is! 

We started our weekend by taking the kids to their first hockey game and cheering on our beloved Winterhawks. 

We had a great time and best of all the Winterhawks won!

When we got home my mom had surprised us with a Valentine's balloon and some almond roca :)

The next morning Jon got up super early and I heard him walking around a bit while I slept in. When I finally got up we put Annabel in her V day best and got ready for the day. 

Jon had snuck in some balloons and flowers into the bedroom. Also, some of my favorite chocolates. When I walked out of the room I found roses everywhere. 

The roses led me to more balloons and this!

Jon doesn't do things small! He always goes all out! 

Don't worry I didn't forget poor Jon. I got him a fancy heart box of chocolates and a book that we can fill out to tell our story. 

We had a Valentine's run (me inside on treadmill and Jon outside with Annabel) before we headed out. 

We had reservations for Afternoon Tea at the Heathman, one of our favorite Afternoon Teas! 3 tiers of goodness and some great tea.

We walked around downtown and headed to some fancy chocolate shops to buy a couple peices of fancy chocolate. We got some Swiss and some Belgium. But in reality we were so stuffed with sweets from the tea we both didn't really want much chocolate haha. 

We also swung by finnigans and I picked out a stuffed animal. When I saw this bunny I was in love! So was annabel when she saw it. I keep having to remind her that the bunny is mine!!

We stopped at Brasserie Montamartre for some Duck Fat Frites and a drink before we walked back to our car and went to dinner. 

We had dinner at Alexis Restaurant on Burnside which was AMAZING. including this fried cheese. 

It was so cool, he brought out this flaming cheese then squeezed (lemon? Ouzo?) on it and yelled something oppa! And a huge flame went up. It was also pretty dang tasty. 

Unfortunately Annabel did not get to go with us on our V day adventure but we made it up to her on Sunday by spending most of the day with her and cuddling with her while we played Lego Hobbit.
