(a few homemade decorations I put up for one of my favorite holidays!)
Happy Valentine's weekend to all my fellow love birds out there. I hate to sound cheesy... well no I don't my name is Shannon "Cheesy"
Jex after all... but I just love this holiday. I love it because it has never been about money or big gifts with me and Zach...just sweet cards and quality time. Growing up Mom and Dad always made it fun too...with chocolates and sweet cards!! Over the last 8 years, Zach and I have always celebrated this sweet day in some form or fashion. One year in college we ordered take-out from
Boure (in Oxford) and had dinner and raspberry cheesecake by the fire at home...some years we went to sorority/fraternity formals...some years we battled the crowds and went out to dinner. This year I am thinking ordering to-go sounds like the ideal date night in this frigid winter weather...now I just have to find somewhere that has yummy raspberry cheesecake...
hmmm maybe I will just try my hand at making one!
I feel so blessed to be married to such a romantic man. I was thinking the other day that he makes everyday "Valentine's-ish" with sweet little treats, loving words, tons of hugs everytime I see him...and heartfelt little sticky notes around the house. I hope you all feel/have felt that kind of love before!
So what are you and your sweetie doing this year??
