Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope you had a fantastic one, and are having a great weekend! My husband and I went out last night to The Old Spaghetti Factory~ love that restaurant!~ and tonight we had a little family party. We always celebrate on the actual holiday together, and just the two of us on a different night. The wait at the restaurant is too much on V-day night! :) My husband gave me a sweet homemade card with a thoughtful note, and a coupon tucked inside for the cozy robe I'd spotted at Target or a pair of pajamas~ my choice. I saw the cutest pair of pjs while we were there~ kind of crazy flannel bottoms with a blue top~ very cute, but I opted for the robe. Soft on the outside and the inside, in pink and red, it feels very Valentines-ish! Oh, I could do a filibuster on the wonders of cute and comfortable pajamas! :)




I didn't end up decorating as much as I'd hoped, but I had fun cutting out these hearts for the chandelier. I got this idea from another blog~ I think it was from The Happy Homebody...here's another picture, up close...



...and personal...




...Well, not really, but it just sounded good, especially considering it's Valentine's Day. I think that was a romantic comedy from the 90's, "Up Close and Personal", with Michelle Phieffer and an actor named George something or other...am I right? I remember it being all right, a pretty decent film. Then again, I saw it on TV and they have to filter a lot of junk out...now that was a tangent! :) But while we are on a tangent, here's another little one...




I almost didn't show you this picture because of the unfinished buffet and moulding in the background, but in the end, I just had to show you this picture of Max. Oh, I love this cat! He's my baby, since no one around here likes to be told that anymore :( ...but Max never minds! Ever since losing Lillie, I take him even less for granted. I'm open to adopting another, so we'll see...

I wanted to say (again) that I haven't forgotten you all! I have so much missed coming by your blogs this past week or two, and I will definitely be stopping by soon. I know I said that earlier this week, but it just didn't happen. This week will be different! Till then, have a good rest of your weekend, and a blessed night! :)
