I know we are now in march and talking about valentines day is old news, but it was so amazingly beautiful what these guys did that in my eyes they deserve a post! Even if its a little late. :)
So here it is:
Ok, so Gabriel, Juan, Eugene, dad Carlos, and little Carlos, all got together and planned an amazing valentines day surprise for us girls. They did such an amazing job at keeping it secret!! Everything they bought was stored in the garage, gabes room and in a variety of very interesting places! Througout the week they each managed to tell each one of us girls different lies to get around their plans. For example little carlos told andrea that he needed the fondu machine for some special reason, i cant clearly remember what, but I think he tied it in with school. Juan told Cinthia that they were going over to Gabes house to celebrate Mirna's birthday! haha and well big carlos is just good at being quiet all around! So here is the list of the lucky girls and their couple:
Mayra &Eugene
Mirna & Carlos
Andrea & Carlos
Cinthia & Juan
Jessica & Gabriel
These guys cooked, planned and even decorated! I cant even begin to express how impressed I was and still am with the way they made our valentines day so special. Our day began with us girls being told that we had to arrive at Gabes house at exactly 4:30pm! Gabe understands my difficulty with time.. so he threatened me and made sure I was the first to arrive! haha When I walked in I got sat in the office with mirna and they shut the doors! haha they were not quite yet ready.. and mirna was so excited that her husband was cooking!! Well soon enough came mayra, andrea and cinthia. We were told that the 5th course was being prepared and we were to wait just another minute.
While we waited the guys, chopped, seared, broiled and roasted!! I still cant believe they cooked all of that food in under two hours! They did manage to turn the kitchen inside out and use over 55 plates!
But it was all worth it in the end.
When the food was all ready, each of the boys came into the room and escorted us to the dinning room! The table was beautifully decorated!! they had wine cups and palate cleansers along with laminated menu's personalized to each girl. It was all very shocking! They showed us to our seats and told us they would be back in a minute!
Soon after they left, they all came in dressed so fancy!! With little red bowties!! they each were holding a red flower for each of us.. and chickes got me roses too!! Not only were these boys our dates.. they were our waiters and cooks! We had our own little ratatouilles for the night haha..
Our elegant 5 Course Meal included the following:
Lobster and Avocado Salad
Shrimp Cocktail with specialty sauces
Pan Seared Quail
Blue Cheese topped Filet Mignon
Chocolate fondue covered strawberries and bananas
The meal was so well thought out and just delicious! The remainder of the night we talked, cleaned and enjoyed each others company. It was definitely one of the most romantic evenings of my life.
Thank you chickies!! :)
Hugs and kisses
Jessy
