The Love Day

I love holidays.  They just make me so happy.  I wanted to do something fun for Danny that would surprise him.  My sister Noelle showed me some cute Star Wars valentine's on pinterest.  I printed them off and posted them around the house for Danny to find and wrote on them some of the many reasons I love Danny, because he is pretty great.  I then got up early and made heart-shaped pancakes for breakfast. I couldn't resist dying them pink, like my mom used to.  I never make breakfast, so I figured this would really surprise Danny.  He seemed quite pleased.  I also got him some of his favorite candy and treats for him to find later in the day.

Danny definitely surprised me as well.  When I got home from work, Danny told me he got tickets to Wreck It Ralph at the Dollar Theater for our evening activity.  I laughed and said it sounded fun.  Then he handed me the tickets. I did a double take and realized he was teasing me and had really gotten tickets to Ballet West's performance of Cinderella for that evening.  I was super excited.  I took ballet lessons back in my youth.  While I was never spectacular, it gave me an appreciation for this art form.  We first went to dinner at Tucci's, a cute Italian restaurant near Trolley Square.  We splurged and got the Italian sodas.  Then we headed down to the Capitol Theater for the ballet.  I thought it was lovely and impressive.  Danny was kind enough to sit through it.
