Valentine's Day success!

I'm not normally the type of girl to go crazy over V-day. Its just another day. Why should your love for another person be wrapped up in this one day? Isn't love about loving the little day to day stuff? Well, this is my second Valentine's day with my man and we had to start out day out by working. Very busy day too, lots of husbands doing last minute V-day runs. Half way through the morning Michael comes to me and says that somebody trashed my desk and I had better go look at it. In a fit of anger at people trashing my desk I go to the back to find 12 beautiful red rose's from Michael.

Awww, and that's whats fun about Valentine's day!!!

My treat to Micheal was making home made chocolate dipped strawberries. Very easy, very delicious.....very addicting!

Winterhaven Tinkle Time

As the holiday season roles in once again, so do fun family outings that make Christmas so special!!! This year, I was invited by my oldest sister Kelly, my awesome brother-on-law Joshua and my adorable niece Isabel to visit Winterhaven's magical lighted neighborhood. I went with my amazing boyfriend as well and we decided it would be a great idea to stop by Starbucks first to get a nice warm drink before being outside all night. Well, it didn't quite happen that way. I tend to find myself a creature of habit especially when it comes to Starbucks; Cinnamon dulce frapp with extra coffee and no whip. Simple!!! But also cold. So, I consume this delightful beverage before we arrive in winterhaven. We park, excitedly jump out of the car hearing baby Isabel scream "lights! Lights! T Em! Mike! Lights!" But as soon as we started walking...it happened! I had to pee. This is not something a person who gates port a potties. We started walking snd the first thing we see is a port a potty an instead of stopping I decide I can wait. But as we kept walking though the neighborhood, we came across this house that aa doing an amazing, get this, water show!!!! And my lovely boyfriend thought it would be a great idea to mention that we were in fact standing in front of alot of gushing water. After hearing all that I decided to search fire a potty, and we found one. Let me paint u a picture of how this one was set up. The port a potty was put right on the side of the road, undetneath a HUGE light post so that EVERYBODY could see, and about 25 people standing right in front of the door. My worst nightmare. I was reminded of a dream I once had where I was at church and the only available toilet was in the middle of the foyer. Horrifying.
I overcame my fear that night, not forever, just that once though. The rest of the evening after that was magical, being with family; the people I love. That is what Christmas is all about, having to pee just makes its more exciting!
