I hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day yesterday! Ours was wonderful. My husband came home from work with his arms full of flowers (peach roses, my favorite!) and chocolates (Lindt truffles), two bottles of white wine and the sweetest card:
It almost made me cry.
The girls and I had fun getting things ready for him. We went in the morning and picked up a couple bottles of wine and a new variety of beer for him to try with dinner. Then we went to the library and found a few books for Brandon, a few for Elora, and one for me. Elora and I both made cards for him while Kaylie was napping. Then I cleaned off his desk, and set out his books and cards where he would be sure to see them. And in the evening, I tried out a yummy new recipe for dinner.
There were no fancy restaurants, neither of us spent a whole lot of money, and we had to trade off holding Kaylie during dinner so we could eat, but it was a nice, relaxed evening spent enjoying one anothers' company, and it was perfect. It was exactly the kind of Valentine's Day I was hoping for, and I wouldn't change a thing!
I finally got around to finishing another scrapbook page.
I had a hard time with this one, too. I got the lay out done pretty easily, but I just couldn't choose a background or elements. I actually had to just put it away and ignore it for a few weeks, but when I came back to it last night, it came together for me.
Sweet card! He's pretty good at that isn't he?
