Be mine, valentine

I don't know what happened to me this year, maybe it was the fact that I had schoolwork due, but Valentine's Day almost completely passed me by. I seriously had little to no desire to do anything. I have a major case of senioritis and am ready to be done with my bachelors program. Three more classes to freedom!

Luckily, Daniel did not drop the ball. I think he still feels guilty about our first Valentine's Day. I told him I got him a gift and he replied that that was great, but he didn't get me anything. I thought he was obviously joking, but he wasn't. He seriously got me nothing. Not a card. Not a flower. Nothing.

I did remember to buy a gift and a card. Daniel is the hardest person to shop for. He wants for nothing and if he does, he buys it for himself. So I resorted to buying the last thing off his Christmas list, which ended up working out because it is cold once again in the Panhandle.

Daniel definitely did better than I did. I have been dieting hence I have been on a smoothie kick. I bought our blender for $15 at Wal-Mart in college for one purpose, margaritas. Apparently I got my money's worth because it is now a piece and can barely crush ice. Daniel listened to all my complaining and bought me a brand new blender. I can't wait to get my smoothie on! He also made dinner (and chocolate covered strawberries) and wasn't mad when I had to bolt to do my homework. That is love.


A blender, B&N gift card, AND milk duds. He knows me well.


Crab cakes and a spicy aioli sauce that we learned to make at our cooking class


Is it possible to OD on chocolate covered foods? I'll let you know.


Me and my other valentines


So that was our Valentine's Day. Even though I was a sucky valentine, I do like any holiday that makes you pontificate about love. I can honestly say that after six years, there isn't anyone I would rather spend my days with, except for maybe Miles Austin. Being serious, last year was a really hard year and I know that I am blessed to be married to my best friend and thankful that God has given us challenges because our marriage is so much stronger because of them.
