Just a quick note to say Happy Valentine’s Day! Hope you have something lovely planned!

I think we are going to make a nice family dinner tonight to celebrate, and I know Ben is excited about giving Mommy, Daddy, and Carys Valentine’s after the fun he had with his preschool friends exchanging them this week. Want to see what I got from my sweet boy on Thursday? We were at the grocery store picking up some things and he decided he wanted to get me some tulips (though from what money I don’t know…he didn’t bring his piggy bank!). “Pink ones Mama!” he insisted. So home we came with beautiful pink tulips. Jeff thought I’d made this up as an excuse to get flowers for myself Then my “niece” Eliana (my friends daughter) brought me some red ones, so now I have the perfect Valentine’s arrangement!

Now, I know all you blog friends appreciate a great deal, and ESPECIALLY on pretty things, right? Well, I spied this mirror last night at Home Depot (yup, Home Depot on a Saturday night…I lead a crazy exciting life ) that is a STEAL at $64.99! It’s 24″ x 36″ and could go anywhere. And we all know how much modern venetian mirrors can go for in home decor stores, they are pricy. Anyhow, get yourselves on over to your local Home Depot and snap one up…the way I see it, it is the perfect Valentine’s gift (for yourself ), a great alternative to an overpriced bouquet that’s not gonna last more than a week!

Happy Valentine’s Day!
