The Day of Love

So... I'm not a Valentine's Day kinda girl. Don't get me wrong, I want to spend time with my love on that day but I can do without flowers (roses especially) and dinner. I'd rather Kev get me flowers just because and he does quiet often. I don't understand why every other holiday stores put merchandise on sale, but on Valentines Day they jack up the prices of flowers. The same roses you could have gotten last week for $50 are now $150. That's just ridiculous. As far a going out for dinner, I used to wait tables in college and I absolutely HATED Valentines Day. You have everyone who NEVERS goes out to eat in a restaurant. You have to wait hours to eat at a place that usually doesn't have a wait time at all or a very little one.

All that being said we had a VERY low key Valentine's Day. After school I came straight home and started on his Valentines Day cake. A Red Velvet Poke Cake. Then I rushed across town to get my hair cut. When Kev got home from work, we did our hour of P90X. Yes, we sweated together on Valentines Day! I threw together a salad and a Bertolli pasta dinner along with garlic bread. We cuddled on the couch and watched our Thursday night shows. We exchanged very sweet cards and that was our night. I wouldn't have asked for anything more! We show each other we love each other every day, We do sweet things for each other just because. We don't have to have a day set aside for that. And that is how I like it!

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

Pool Time!

We spent the weekend at our friends' pool. We took the dogs with us Sunday so they could have a play date. M and B have to pit bulls that are so sweet. Nahla, the youngest one, loves to play! They were also puppy sitting the cutest beagle ever!  They absolutely love going places! They were waiting in the car while I was loading our things.  I've never been able to get Hatfield in the pool, but Lilly loves it. She started off just sitting on the steps and one day she just jumped in. So, now she jumps in every now and then to cool off. Kev mixed up refreshing peach mojitos (I guess I've had major peach craving lately) this weekend. I'd share the recipe but that's his job. I never really know what all goes into what I'm drinking. I just know it's delicious!
