happy v-day!

so i remember being single and thinkin that valentines day was lame and that why should you have just one day dedicated to the ones you love, every day should be like that. but now i think it's fun to have somewhat of a holiday! i got kinda into it this year, i started out by attempting to make choc covered pretzels and can i just say i don't think i'll be doing that ever again. i kept burning the chips and then when all was said and done i made like 7 bags and was not about to go to the store and spend more money on chocolate! so i ended up makin a bunch of little bite size cookies and they were really yummy (i must say i only ate one!) that's really good for me since i could eat like a dozen easy! and yesterday was soooo fun i had a knock on the door and it was a delivery guy w/ a box of flowers from bren! it was a first to get them in the mail like that and it was fun to get a package! thanks babe! we are planning on going to dinner tonight (our fav yc's) and then renting a flick, so should make for fun times and this sat we get to go out on a date! i must say i'm loving that we have finally started makin date night a priority, getting a baby sitter for the kids it's soooo nice! k happy vday to all you out there!
my pretty flowers!


carter was giving savanna kisses and she was just giggling away! love it!

Rae, I love seeing pics of your cute kids! They are so cute and I can't believe Savvy is going to be 1 year old next month! Happy Late V-day...by the way you can melt chocolate chips in the micro. Then you don't have to watch them every second.

keep counting.....
