Crafty Love


Here is my valentine decor
I actually finished my LOVE banner just a few days before valentines.
I came up the the idea back in January and meant to make it the whole month but never had the time to get around to making it until just three days before. I was going to make it with my sis Megan, she got a Cricket for Christmas so we were going to get our craft on, but her kidos were sick. So my sister in law Kenzee and and I got together which worked out great. We made one for her B-Day which is on Valentines! I was really happy with how they turned out. I don't know if you can tell but we glittered the letters and I love it!


I also did the I Love You Every Day print with my cricut and some great wrapping paper I got on discount after Christmas. I got the idea from this great Etsy shop calledKiki Comin She has a great print that says Every day I love you, along with a ton of other great ones that I would love to get, please check her out you will be happy you did.



This is one of the things Abe got me for Valentines! I was so surprised when I walked in our room after work and saw this gigantic balloon basket! He also got me a bamboo plant which I have really been wanting for my office. It's way cool with lots of twists to it but I didnt get a pic. I have been so busy lately I still have not gotten a chance to get him all his gifts so that is on my to do list this weekend.

Happy V-Day

The first time I met my Valentine was in the Shopko parking lot.
Abe and I met on eHarmony, so we had emailed back and forth and had talked on the phone but, had not really met each other yet. So, for our first date we decided to met at the Shopko down by my parents house. We had a hard time finding where each other had parked and ended up on opposite ends of the parking lot. We got out of our cars and walked across the parking lot towards each other. I remember thinking he looked much more handsome than his pictures had looked and he had the most amazing smile and blue eyes I had ever seen. He just had that kind of smile that reached his eyes ya know:) We rode together in his truck and really our first date was the best first date I have ever been on. My cheeks hurt from smiling so much. I was smitten.

(isn't he dreamy)

Thank you so much Abe for being an amazing husband and father. I love you so much and feel so blessed and greatful to have you as my husband. Really you are just the partner in life I need! Big hugs and kisses:)

The Month of LOVE

I am so happy for February that means it is just one more month closer to getting warmer around here. Although the chill factor has been way to cold the last few days. Anyways... yesterday Abe and I were talking and he called me my little Pie Filling as a cute little pet name, I have no idea were it came from, so I called him my little Toster Strudel. Then it hit me for the month of February we were going to come up with a different pet name for each other each day! I though it was brilliant:) So this morning at like 4:30am while Abe was driving to work I text him that I loved him and called him Cinnamon Bear and he came back with Hottie Tottie. I think this is going to be fun:) I am a little worried that mine will all be food references though so if you have any great pet names to use please share! At the end of the month I will have to share all the different names we came up with.
