Valentines Day

I know this post is a bit late, but I wanted to share with you some Valentines Day pictures. 
We had a very nice valentines day in our house.  : )  Colin got me gorgeous flowers and I got him cupcakes, a t-shirt and a sweat shirt! haha

 

 

 

I had mentioned a Valentine's Day craft in my pitcher post, and here it is.  Nothing fancy, just some heart garland.  I had planned on ordering some on Etsy, but never got around to it.  So I whipped some up myself just in time for the 14th.

 

 

 

 

I never took a picture of my supplies, but I just got heavy weight scrapbooking paper, a heavy gauge needle and some thin string.  Yes a needle, it was an experiment, but it worked great.  It was in a multi-pack in the sewing section of Michaels.

 

 

Only mistake is that I sewed them too close to the bottom so they kept flipping over when I hung them....I needed to sew them closer to the top....Next time.  (So I just put tiny pieces of tape behind each one so they hung nicely...shhh don't tell anyone!)

I hope you all had lovely Valentines Days with the ones you love!

Wine Tasting for a Belated Valentines

Colin said we could do anything I wanted to for Valentines Day, and we discussed some options and I picked Wine Tasting! It was a good choice! : ) We had such a nice time! I want to go again when it is not the winter!

We checked into a deluxe hotel with a King Bed and full beverage center in the fancy lobby!

Then the van picked us up, and it also picked up one other couple and we hit the road! We toured and or tasted at 3 Vineyards. Each were very different, so you got a nice idea of the local wine makers.

We went a little crazy with the buying of the wine! Opps! : )

It was a great day! THANK YOU COLIN!

My Favorite Valentine

Guess who sent me a Valentine???? oxoxoxox Right back at you Sean!



It looks like Sean might be cheating on me with Pepper!

Happy Valentines Day

Happy Valentines Day Kids! : ) So as most of you know, for my Valentines Greetings I went with cupcake cards. I can't take credit for the idea though. I stumbled across it, when I was hunting for Valentine Inspiration.

I found it on this blog, but she had linked it in from this blog. So Here was the inspiration cupcake, but I made a few changes! from: Scrapscene.com

I hope you all enjoyed your V-day Greeting. (And please know I had no intention of doing confetti this round, I figured I would give your vacuums a break, I had punched all those mini hearts to be sprinkles on the cupcakes, but decided against it, and I had them so.....)

How funny are these?

Look what was in my Etsy email this morning! HAHAHAHA How funny are these? I love them!

Oh man, who remembers "Your Lover 99'" Wow, how was that 11 years ago?
