OUR VALENTINE'S DAY TRADITION

First off I had to show the BEAUTIFUL flower arrangement that Scott gave me for Valentine's Day. Note the super cute pink ribbon & blinging buckle on the vase! I love them, he seriously knows me WAY too well!! It was a wonderful Valentine's day, and here is why...

These pictures posted below is where our Valentine's Day tradition started. These next three pictures were taken on our first "official" date...and it just so happened to be on Valentine's day. Our tradition is to make homemade pasta (yes, including the noodles from scratch). The noodles were undercooked, and I don't remember the Alfredo sauce being as "wonderful" as I thought it was going to be, but either way this date was the beginning of the most amazing relationship I have ever known. The first picture is supposed to be funny, we had Scott's roomy come out and take this "Ghost" pic. :)

The next picture is of me kneading the dough and I tell you, making pasta noodles from scratch is A LOT OF WORK!! lol
Here is my handsome hubby (then possible boyfriend) cooking the pasta in his apt. at BYU.
So now today....this is my now HANDSOME HUBBY with all the noodles that he cut with such precision. This time we cooked the noodles A LOT longer, and they turned out to be PERFECTION!!!
The chicken...(that was my part of the meal) Difficult, I know! lol
Oh and I was also in charge of the Alfredo sauce. This pic was taken right before I dumped in about a gallon of Parmesan cheese!! It was delicious...if I do say so myself! :)
The final product! It was amazing this time! We are still working on perfecting the recipe, as we are working on perfecting our relationship. The good news is that we have all eternity to work on that! Until next year....HAPPY VALENTINES DAY EVERYONE!!!
