Happy Valentines Day

I usually enjoy decorating the house for each holiday. Just to solidify the whole calendar and change of seasons for the kids. But with the move and all, there wasn't any sign of the upcoming holiday of Valentine's Day. Larry and I tried to talk to the kids about it all week and get them hyped up. So that morning I fed the kids pink cupcakes with red sprinkles and placed boxes of candy treats at each of their seats. Larry also picked up the girls one of their favorite movies, "Annie". The girls were totally stoked.
As for Larry and I, well, I found a great deal on a much needed new couch off craigslist and needed to pick it up that evening. What a great way to spend Valentines Day!?! Who doesn't love to eat dinner at a gas station Wendy's in some random city? Seriously, that's what we did, no joke. On the way home Larry informed me I was getting him an edger for the lawn. We are so sentimental and mushy! But props to Larry for bringing me home some red roses. He's a keeper!




This FAB couch has double recliners, messagers and the middle flips down with cup holders!
Now that is luxury.

Gorgeous!

Don't you love Craigslist?! We got our piano that way. Great deal. The couch looks great!

Yeah, we're just as romantic as you guys are. We ended up shopping for rugs and a dust mop for our new hardwood floors on Valentines Day night. But I learned that it's actually a great time to go shopping because all of the stores were empty and parking was super easy since the rest of the world was at all the restaurants or movie theatres.

Very romantic indeed. Your man knows the meaning of a rose's color. Glad you each got what you wanted, and the couch looks comfy.
I'm happy for you.
