Valentine's Say WHAT??

YESTERDAY

Was Valentine's day. Duh.

I has sitting at my desk bright and early 6:45 am.

7:15 am rolls around and some RANDOM Hispanic dude BARGES into my office and sits at the desk next to mine.
 

"Uh.. Do you need something or can I help you with something...??"

He states he's "just there to talk"

haha okay mister I have NO IDEA who you are, I've NEVER seen you before and I'm WORKING. I picked up the phone and frantically tried to call 3 different co-workers to RUN back to my office to "look at a paper"

I was told "it will be a minute.."

NO PEOPLE. NOW. (but clearly I couldn't say that..)

I start to send a text "SOMEONE IS IN MY OFFI..."

and before I know I could finish my text he had snaked his way over in between my chair and my desk and suddenly his hand is on my back.
WTF!?

"When I walked by your office yesterday.. you were so cute.. "
AND QUICKLY GOES IN TO KISS ME!

ANOTHER WTF!?

I pushed this complete stranger away with a loud "EXCUSE ME!?"

.....there he went casually walking out of my office.....

 

At this point I am in complete shock.

I run to find someone & he's gone.
 

WHO DOES THAT!?

& I have a freaking RING on my finger!!

like... DUH.

 

Needless to say I had to talk to 2 different security guards, was given pepper spray to keep at my desk & was checked on a million times by co-workers throughout the day. The halls were monitored all day looking for the desperate little monster.

 

I mean yeaaaah, it was Valentine's Day & all.. but holy cow people my office is not a kissing booth! 

 

I was SO excited to go home to Spencer and admire the Cricut machine he bought me still in the box. I still have way too much anxiety to open it yet. I absolutely LOVE IT!
I loved our first Valentine's Day together as a married couple! Last year at this time Spencer was living in Vernal & it sucked.
 

Spencer was at school all night last night so we celebrated our Vday a night early and hit the town all dressed up and lookin fine to go to PF Chang Changs. 

There, a waiter walking by dropped a dish and it sent Chinese mustard flying all over the back of my pink pea coat from Nordstrom.

 

I'm just hoping next year's Valentine's Day is a little less traumatizing.

THE END.

Month of Lovins!

I've always loved February for two reasons..

1. January is over!

2. Valentine's Day Month!

 

Here is an easy Valentine's Day craft & it's totally cute!

 

 

WHAT YOU NEED:

*you can also get all of these items 40% off with a coupon at Michael's Craft!*

-A canvas board (any size is good- I like square)

-Scissors

-Elmer's Glue (make sure it's white!)

-small paint brush

-glitter of your choice

-A folder of some sort, card stock or newspaper

 

I wanted something cute for Valentine's Day so I decided to go with XOXO
You can usually google image anything you want to glitter, the trick is to make sure you google image "silhouette" with most of your searches!

I found this XOXO template online HERE!

Find a Valentine's template online that you like & print it.

[Some other cute ideas would be a heart, cupid or lips!]

 

 

Cut out your template and lightly trace it onto your canvas board!

 

Squirt a good size puddle of Elmer's Glue onto a disposable plate.

 

Use your paint brush to apply the glue to any areas you want glitter.
Make sure you get as CLOSE to the edge as possible..
When applying the glue, I like to go over the edges just a little bit so they don't show through the glitter.

APPLY GLUE GENEROUSLY!

*On this step only do one letter at a time!!*

 

(I chose pink & red glitter for my board. I like the smaller tubs because they are cheap & they go a long way!)

 

Next you'll sprinkle the glitter over the glued letter- apply generously!

Gently tap the glitter to make sure it's stuck down in the glue.

 

Since I decided to do the X's red, I put glue down on my last X since I already have red glitter on my board.

Repeat the steps above!

 

This is where your folder comes in handy!
Carefully slide the glitter off onto your folder- (you can also use a newspaper or card stock, anything that you can fold in half to get the extra glitter back in the container!)

Gently tap the backside of your canvas board to get any extra glitter off.

 

NOTE:

If there are any white spots in between the glitter you didn't use enough glue!
You can go back over the white spots with dabs of glue and fill in the spots with glitter.

 

I repeated the exact same steps with my O's & the pink glitter

& J'ai fini!!

 

When you are finished lay your canvas board on a flat surface and let it dry for at least 24 hours! This will prevent any glitter from coming off or getting smeared!

 

 

 

HAPPY FEBRUARY!!

XOXO

Valentine's Day Surprise!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I've been so excited this year to have my second Valentine's Day with Spencer. (official this year..) BUT. I've also been thinking we'd have to celebrate this lovely holiday together another day because of his crazy work schedule.

 Yesterday I had some errands to run. I stayed late at work to get an extra hour in, and headed out to Fashion Place Mall. With no plans last night, I took my sweet time at the mall and headed home after 5:00 pm. I had been texting Spencer and he said he had some time to talk so I called him up. I pulled my car into the driveway- grabbed my purse and my bags, (still talking to Spencer) and headed up the front steps with my keys ready to open the locked front door.

The front door SWUNG open (which scared me half to death..) and THERE WAS SPENCER!! I was SO EXCITED!  I LOVE surprises so so much.. I don't think there's anything better than knowing someone was thinking of you, and went out of their way to do something special for you. (In Spencer's case, he went WAY out of his way taking into consideration he isn't supposed to be home until TOMORROW!)

With Spencer's work schedule, he wasn't supposed to be here any of the nights Fatalie has her school play. She has been so sad he couldn't see her perform. Nat's closing night of the play is TONIGHT and Spencer will be able to see her! Our Valentine's date will be going to the school play to see Nat, which I think we're both totally cool with.

I'm so lucky I'm able to spend more time this week with Spencer than I had planned for, and I'm so thankful he thought to surprise me. Little (big) things like that mean the world to me. 

(It's crazy to think this is our LAST week together until the WEDDING!)

 Today don't forget to let those around you know how much you LOVE THEM!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! <3
XOXO
