Will You Be My Valentine?

Photobucket

We have (we think) a cute Valentine's Day tradition. Every year, we stay at home, one of us cooks dinner, and for gifts we exchange pajamas. This year was no different, except that it was our first Valentine's Day as a married couple! :) Here are a few pictures that marked the occasion for us...

Brian sent Lauren a dozen red roses at work...
