Oh my gosh! So this Valentine's Day was the sweetest, yet simplest for me. I think my husband secretly reads my blogs, because it's been a long time since he's actually took the time to plan something...he must've read my rant, right?



Anyhoo, Valentine's Day morning as I was getting the boys ready for school, he gave me my usually kiss and whispered that he had a spa day planned for me. For a normal girl, she would've probably jumped for joy. But me being an abnormal girl just…

Dear Jacob,

Eighteen years ago, on this day, the most amazing thing happened and life, as I knew it, changed forever—all because of you.

But who cares? I mean, fatty pants…

I decided our Heart Animals needed some friends, and so today we made these silly Heart Characters:

My toddler is really into jewelry lately (I think she gets that from me). She is my inspiration for this unique Valentine’s Day project. What could be better than a cute necklace that is also edible? We had so much fun making these necklaces. I hope you do too.

It's Valentine's Day and my husband is under the weather. He actually stayed home from work, so I know he's feeling lousy. We don't have any special plans tonight, but I'm ok with that. On my negative days I call Valentine's Day a "Hallmark Holiday"... a day over-marketed so that people will go out and buy cards, spend money on over-priced meals in super-crowded…

You’ve nursed your New Year’s hangover…or in my case…did your New Year’s laundry.
