Happy St. President's day!

Today is the day where we celebrate a holiday with hearts and love isn't it? Oh whoops, it isn't? Don't tell my 5 yo Curly-Sue. Today we made a cake for our neighborhood (everyday at about 4 pm we all gather at our neighborhood park and the kids play play play. When evening colors sounds we usually all head in to eat our dinners and wash up) it was heart shaped with pink icing and most importantly ... SPRINKLES. What joy she had inviting everyone, and being a hostess. How easy this was for me, finding the cake mix and icing post V-Day was a $1 investment, but it was a lesson worth a much larger pricetag.

The big Day!

Every year I tend to spend the last two weeks of February with my feelings hurt. Yes, valentine's day and my birthday do that to me. I have expectations that dh doesn't meet, or perhaps I lower my expectations and then habor ill feelings towards dh because of it.

So this year I'm trying something different. I'm shamelessly stealing an idea that I read in the comment section of Like Merchant Ships and turning our guest room into a bed and breakfast love nest. While it's probably more for me than for my dh, it will certainly be *fun. wish me luck!
