Sunset Valentines with my 2 favourite girls!

Valentines day in my marriage was not the traditional romantic experience of a couple enjoying time alone to woo and impress with edible gifts in heart shaped boxes, dinner for two by candle-light, maybe a cheesy romantic movie or a stroll down the promenade holding hands and singing soppy serenades, all climaxing in an explosive shag, the best since the 14th February last year! No, for us it started with an extra long hour and a half miserable slog in 34 degree heat through the usual nightmare traffic that drives my stress levels to an unhealthy level daily, only to just pick up the Tamsyn on time at 6pm when the school closes, before popping home for a quick snack and a refreshing change into some comfortable clothes. Then off to the beach, as a family!

As always Tammy had an absolute ball at the beach, frolicking excitedly in the waves, or digging up the beach in creative creations with her little plastic spades, or cheerfully collecting mussel shells in her bucket, meticulously demanding mom washes them as she picked them up.

The outing as a family was fun and relaxing after a long hot day of the usual work & school routine. The evening was stunning, the usually icy water refreshing, and the beach was filled with happy families and couples young & old doing the romantic thing. Plenty of eye-candy around for a randy birdwatcher, but of course I wasn't looking at anybody but my sexy wife!













As you can see the sunset was spectacular! Except I couldn't catch Tammy to stand still long enough to get her in a couple of the sunset shots! Little bugger can run like a pikkinin with a rottweiler on his ass!

After sunset we decided to head home instead of the Blue Peter, as planned, because Tammy was wet and cold and getting grumpy. Dinner was a romantic scrambled eggs on toast, mine which I chowed in front of my PC, before retiring to bed an hour before my wife!

But there is a lot of love in this house. It's old and comfortable and not always romantic, but it's here!
I wouldn't change my family for any other no matter the price!
