Late Valentine's Date post...

I meant to post this a while ago, but never got around to it.
We had a very nice Valentine's Date! Chris brought me home these lovely roses!
Our plan was to go eat at the Cheesecake Factory, but when we got there it was too long of a wait and we were starving {We didn't plan ahead very well}. We ended up going to Paradise Bakery {and it was delicious}!

I had been planning for a couple of weeks to take Chris Ice Skating for our Valentines Date {secretively}! Our first kiss was when we were Ice Skating!

I think this picture is Hilarious!

This is what it was suppose to look like...

Afterwards we decided to get Sprinkles Cupcakes! I have heard so much about them, and I had been waiting for an excuse to try them! They were so yummy!

After dessert we went and saw Shopaholic in the Theatres! It was pretty funny! And a good end to a great night!

I love you Chris!

My sister was in town visiting with her kids last week. I tried to find some fun, FREE things to do, and this is one thing I came up with. {Thanks to Bargain Moms for the idea!}
Phoenix Children's Museum
My sister April, her two kids, my SIL Michelle and her son went and had a pretty good time! It was pretty cool, a little expensive if you had to pay {in my opinion}. Around $9 per person. But for FREE I thought it was a sweet deal! There was plenty to do! Here are a few pictures before my camera died...

Works For Me Wednesday!

Turning my HOUSE into a HOME has been a little difficult {because we are renters}. There are so many things I would do if it were MINE. This is one thing that I do to help it feel more like HOME...
I have a wreath for every season! I LOVE my wreaths! And recently I have been trying to figure out a way to say " Welcome, come on in!" {I guess I took it literally!} I used Vinyl Lettering, and I think it turned out just as I wanted!
This Works For Me!
Have a Happy Wednesday!

I LoVe days like today...

...The Rain, HAIL, cooler weather, dark clouds, and thunder! That is a PeRfEcT day for me! To me it is Heavenly Father telling me that everything is going to be okay! That there is hope and always something to look forward to! It seams that whenever I am having a hard time, or a bad day, it rains! {Rain is my favorite, so that is a good thing} I hope you are having a GrEaT Sunday!

Valentine Swap~

Remember the Valentine Swap I signed up for? Today I FINALLY got around to mailing it! After I got assigned my partner I got together with my friend Katie {Who also signed up for the Swap!} to brainstorm. I REALLY wanted to make a Apron for my partner, but I am not very talented {yet} at sewing. We decided to make LOVE signs, decorative clips, a table runner, and a Cook Book of Love! I also sent my partner Heart shaped measuring spoons, some Peanut Butter filled Chocolate Hearts, and a notepad with Post-its. Here is how everything turned out...



I took a picture of the Cook Book before it was finished. It Ended up saying "Valentines Day Recipes".
I think everything turned out cute and I hope that Ashley likes it all!
