Valentines Mantel:

I am so glad today is the last day of January. What a long month...right? Things have been a little busy lately around here. What with Max testing my patients at nap time and being outside in the beautiful drought weather all day I haven't posted in over a week. I have tried a ton of different recipes thanks to pintrest last week which were a hit and finishing my second valentines day banner. Its very similar to the birthday one I made in June. I have also had a lot of contractions due to the fact that I am walking everyday pushing a 25 pound toddler for a couple miles each day so thats about the most exciting thing going on in our life, oh and the valentines day mantel. Its a work in progress but I like how bright and cheery it is in the house. Its the closest thing to celebrating this year because Larry has school and I will be watching my sister-in-laws 6 children while they are in Mexico...hurray! Anyways I am happy to welcome February into my life with all its 3 day weekends and fun girly colors in the house.
