Happy V-Day!!

I'm not a big follower of Valentine's Day, but it's a good excuse (as if you need one!) to tell those around you how much you love them. I received a special treat from Ryan and Alexandra yesterday at work to let me know that they love me - these beautiful flowers!


Ryan tried to get my favorite (lilies) but they are not yet in season, so instead I got these absolutely gorgeous pink roses, cream tulips, hydrangea, and I'm not quite sure what that beautiful cream flower is in the front - any thoughts?? My whole office smells wonderful and people have been coming by in droves just to get a whiff. Thanks sweetheart!

I promise to post a picture of my girl in our version of a Valentine's outfit. I put her in a pink onesie and khakis this morning before sending her off to daycare, topped off with a beautiful little pink sweater with hearts on it that our dear friends Rick & Natalie in Houston gave to her. It's not a Valentine's sweater per se - but it is perfect for Valentine's Day! It was so cute at daycare this morning - when I peeked in Alexandra's cubby she had her first Valentines from her teacher, Miss Dorothy, and another little girl in the class named Jillian.

And just to prove I'm not a total softie, I had to share this picture from a forward that my dear friend Jane sent me to commemorate Valentine's Day. I guess my sense of humor is a little bit twisted, but I laughed out loud at this!


HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!

Your flowers are gorgeous! The other cream flower is a hyacinth and is probably what's causing 90% of the wonderful aroma.

You know my feelings of Valentine's Day, so I totally appreciate the little cartoon.

Happy Day!
