Heart Day

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!  

A day for red hearts, chocolates, hugs, and kisses.  

I saw this pretty wreath on facebook this morning by "oh so shabby by Debbie Reynolds" and had to share it with you.  Isn't it lovely?  

So what will you be doing for Valentine's Day this year?  We don't do a whole lot....some yummy chocolate candy in one of those big red hearts and a nice dinner is about it, and of course a Valentine card for my sweets.    

I have a cherry pie in the oven right now and it will be dessert for tomorrow evening (if it makes it to tomorrow evening).  

Wishing you all a Happy Heart Day!  

Happy Valentine's Day!

"A hundred hearts would be too few

To carry all my love for you."

I must show you the cutest thing.......

This morning when I woke up and went to pour my coffee, there on the window sill was this sweet little handmade wooden valentine heart from Galen. A small token of his love.

Happy Valentine's Day to all of you!

It's February

"February, when the days of winter seem endless and no amount of wistful recollecting can bring back any air of summer."

~Shirley Jackson

To brighten the gray days of February, I hung my valentine windsock on the front of the house ~ bright pink and red hearts and long streamers that blow softly in the cold wind.

February is such a dreary month ~ dead of winter..... so cold. I'm always happy when March rolls around and there is some hope of spring. And speaking of spring, this past weekend we enjoyed some warm temps around 70 degrees on Sunday. I spent the whole day outside puttering in the garden. True bliss.


Below is a photo of Otis that I captured of the morning sun, shining through the window and casting a pretty shadow on him while he napped.




Otis and Riley both, have been following the sun around the house looking for warm spots. They were basking in the warmth of the fireplace this morning.....and so was I.


Only 27 more days left of February. I guess that's not so bad.

Surprise

Take a look at what we woke up to this morning. Snow!

Isn't it pretty?

The forecast calls for lots of sunshine today, so it should be gone by tomorrow, maybe even today and that's fine with me since I'm not really a snow person.

Yesterday I took a photo of our valentine windsock hanging by our front door, and look at it today ~ piled high with snow. Looks like a big dollop of whipped cream.

Enjoy your weekend, everyone.

Happy Valentine's Day!!
