Valentine's Day has always been a biggie for us, stemming from its importance during our courtship as one alert reader put it. This year we celebrated a second St. Valentine's first: first as a married couple. We visited Macungie hotspots Bear Creek and Stoned Crab; appetizers and drinks at the former and a great dinner with a lovely Argentinian Malbec at the latter. There's something that still feels a bit 'play grown up' about fancy dinners together at fine restaurants, but we had a great, great time and felt a lot like two kids who are happy together.
Over the past months we've transitioned from wedding focus to house focus. Progress on the wedding was hard to quantify, whereas with the house it's easy to see and easy for us to enjoy. I guess we get one-track-minded about it. That being said, here's a great before-and-after album Jenelle made tonight while I was on the phone.
