Valentine's Day

This Valentine's Day was so fun! Micah planned it out and started the morning with a way yummy breakfast.. Bacon, Costco muffins, & waffles. Mmmmm all those calories makes for a happy Mandi. 

We exchanged our little gifts for each other after breakfast too. Since Valentine's Day is sandwiched between some pretty expensive months (Christmas in December & my birthday and our anniversary in April) Valentine's Day has always been more of a focus of hanging out just the two of us and having fun rather than big elaborate gifts. This year was no different and it was totally perfect. I went off of a Pinterest suggestion of doing the 5 senses types of gifts.. Sight, smell, taste, hear, touch.. And he loved it, so fun. He got me some beautiful roses and a package from Lush.. With my favorite scents of bath bomb, shower gel, & bubble bath. Bring on the pampering! Heaven knows my baby bump and I need it!

 Nothing more romantic than seeing your man cooking up bacon. 

If you don't know about Lush, you need to get your life in order and buy this crap. It's amazing. 

After gifts & being lazy, we got ready for the day & dropped Livi off to my parent's house. They were babysitting for us as well as my sister so it was going to be a cousin valentine date too. ;) Micah and I were puppy sitting our friend's dog Kota (Zoey's boyfriend) so we left the two of them to romp around our house. We have a camera for Olive's room that we moved to the family room to spy on the pups while we were out. 

Both of them were on high alert for murderers haha!

After dropping off miss Liv, we headed up to Deer Valley, a little higher than Park City, up to the Montage resort. It was freakin beautiful. 

Everyday at 4:30pm they have a s'mores bar... Seriously. It's outside, a few different tables set up with 2 massive fire pits to roast your mallows around. 

There were all different kinds of marshmallows too.. Caramel, peppermint, vanilla, classic.. Amazingly yum. They also had hot chocolate with even more marshmallows to toss in your cup. It was a mallowy date all around. 

We snapped a few pics (or rather someone else did for us) and then explored the Montage. 

Soooooo pretty! Totally doesn't do it justice. 

The Montage was a really freakin cool resort.. I think The Beast owns it.. Seriously. Billiard tables, live music, couch alcoves everywhere to sit around a coffee table & eat/hang out, legit board games & a few really cool libraries where I'm pretty sure Belle lives. 

And yes, those were Disney movie references. Grow up!  :P

Literally the coolest Clue game board I've ever seen. In my life. It was 3D, super intricate & just amazing. I loved it.. Kinda wanted to take it home with me. And anyone who knows me, knows I love Clue.. The game, the movie.. Everything. So I insisted that we play a game, even though it was just the two of us. 

But just as we were setting things up, a pool table opened up so we bailed on the game for pool. 

When we started our game, no one was around so we took our time & were just messing around. Our dinner reservations (at the Montage) weren't for another hour so we had plenty of time. Which was probably a good thing, seeing as Micah and I are HORRIBLE at pool. 

Although something happened (total luck) and I got 3 balls in in a row.. Then a family showed up to wait to play after us.. And Micah and I started sucking soooo bad. Not intentionally ps, just like horribly horrible at pool. 

For every one ball I got in a pocket I then accidentally would scratch and have to pull another one out. Ugh. And so did Micah! The poor family waiting.. They weren't very happy with us. But whatev, that's what ya get! 

I finally ended up winning because Micah scratched on the 8 ball & sunk the Q ball right after it haha! Poor guy. 

We headed to our dinner reservations at Yama Sushi. Micah knows how much I loooove sushi so it was a perfect little surprise. 

Except..

Their menu is tiny & I had 3 options of food I could eat: California roll (wrapped in seaweed on the outside, bleh I can't do that), a shrimp roll (I hate shrimp), and one called the spider (had crab & cucumber in there).

Soooo I went with the spider but unfortunately it was like 80% cucumber. And yuck. So haha my dinner was little bit of a bust but the ambiance was rad & they gave out free edamame as you're waiting. Super yummy. 

You know you've got an amazing husband when your dinner isn't ruined & you make these faces.. Even when your dinner is pretty ruined. 

After dinner we wandered around the resort and strolled out to our car. The trees are all lit up during the winter months and it was absolutely beautiful, even if you can't really see much. 

We headed home afterwards & on the way my parents sent me this pic. 

Livi with my mom & cousin Capri. 

It was such a lovely day & evening with my better half. Time together, just the two of us.. without work, babies, house crap, & daily stresses bogging us down is so so SO important and I love getting away with him, no matter how small the getaway is.
