We had the best weather for this date—60 degrees in February! Rob & I started by parking at Caffé Apropos & walking down W. 3^rd Avenue towards the Olentangy River to check out Side By Side Park. It’s a tiny Columbus park with two tall metal pieces of art (named “Side by Side”) and a couple benches. We got there right on time to watch the sun set over the Olentangy River. Read more

Rob & I had a wonderful Valentine’s Day by having a party with our nearest-and-dearest friends. Complete with RED spaghetti, RED wine, RED cupcakes, RED strawberries, RED pop, we watched Watson v. The Humans on Jeopardy & made valentines for each other! My good friend Melissa Pauquette also set up a sweet photobooth, which turned up a lot of fun pictures:)

So, what did YOU do for Valentine’s Day? Leave a comment and let me know!
