Valentines

I can't lie, I love Valentines day.  I love love. My husband is wonderful and helps to make the day special. And hey, I am a simple girl.  Flowers and a love note.  That is all I need.  And my husband, he always delivers.

 Outside of the romantic aspect of the holiday, the elementary side of Valentines can be on the chaotic side.  When you have a holiday that is focused around chocolate and candy, you are asking for trouble.  Let's just say it took more than a day to come down from the sugar high.  

snow day...lots of snow days!

One of the perks of living in a "southern" state is the frequency of snow days...even with only an inch or two of snow. Growing up in the Midwest  it would take an actual blizzard to call of school.  Here we have had 6 snow days since Thanksgiving.  It's pretty fantastic!  

We even went back to our childhood days and spent some time playing in the snow with some friends(and yes we are all over the age of 24).  Unfortunately, Eric and I don't have any snow clothes.  Eric ended up wearing his long London Fog coat...yes he did dress to impress!
