Quaran-tine Valen-tine

Good Morning--- here are just a few snippets from our wonderful Valentines' Day. It was a different one but definitely filled with the most important things--- family and love--- and a little sugar thrown in for good measure....

D knows that I prefer mixed bouquets and knocked it out of the park with this awesome one.... He gets it the day before so he gets better blooms before the Valentines Day rush.

It is even prettier today as some more blooms are opening up.


Look who is all dressed up!


Then the kiddos took a turn dressing him up... no words.


We got gluten free treats this year and they were yummy!


We are fans of pretty around here. 






D and I took Toby for a long walk and then both took power naps before indulging in some Thai takeout.

My Valentine for the last 18 years...His lips are redder than mine and I'm wearing lipstick....



So stuffed after dinner but a dessert buffet had to be done (we wrapped most of it up after for during the week)


Between Costco and a gluten free bakery we were fixed for all those sugary "needs". C's friend also sent some cupcakes (on the other tray) that were also so delicious.



D and I watched The Dressmaker after---- let's just say it wasn't the best choice for a Valentine's movie.

And that's a wrap on Valentine's Day, friends! How did you spend yours?

TBB Asks- Relationships

Happy Monday! All things love today, friends.... here we go!


1- Who is your oldest friend? How did you meet?
My oldest friend that I still keep in contact with is my friend Adia from high school. She was in my high school classes all the way until the end, all seven years! We aren't in touch as often as we should be but when we chat, it's like we never left off.

2- Who are your people?
I have a few people but we are tight!

My person here.

My aunts who have always been here for me

My girl right here.....

This boy here


And this other girl here


Okay scratch few people. Through this post, I'm realising that I have a lot of peeps!


3- How did you meet your partner?
In TGIF's in Chaguanas in TNT. It was 2002 and we became friends and then it  quickly developed into soulmate status!!

4- What's your love language?
I wrote a whole post about it but it's words of affirmation firstly for sure. 

5- Flowers or chocolates?
Both! LOL

6- What's the most meaningful gift you've ever received?
That's a tough one but recently my friend Kamini gave me a gift basket for my birthday with so many of my favourite things (she read a post of mine). It had chocolates, wine, a jade roller, a diffuser with a sampling of oils, my fave chocolate pecan pie which she just about searched the town to find, a framed picture of us and some teas with a steeper. Oh and she paid for my makeup to be done the night of the party. It was so kind and so thoughtful!


7- How is Valentines' Day celebrated in your home?
For the past couple Valentines' days, we have ordered in from a nice gourmet take out place in town, opened some bubbly, used our wedding china and crystal and enjoyed a multiple course meal with the kids. Lots of fun and I believe we are doing it this year again!

How about you? How do you celebrate Valentine's Day?

F O U R

Just like that my baby is FOUR today!! So this Friday Favourites is focused on her and what she's been up to this year.

She enjoyed her sunshine birthday party last July.
 

And then she went to Disney in August


 In September, we started preschool

In October, we had our Halloween outfit changes.
  


And in November, I loved looking at all these different expressions.

Another wonderful Christmas in December!

January was pure mayhem when we did our big move

And in February, we sipped our steamed milk and got our first big haircut- a few weeks later, she gave herself another one at home and promptly went back to the hairdresser for a fix up.

We enjoyed the sun in Mexico in March! (fun fact, after this picture was taken, the waves virtually swept all 26 lbs of her into the ocean and the photographer had to race to get her)

We had hot and cold weird El Nino weather in April.

In May we celebrated dad (and four grandparents came to visit)

In June, we finished up school and began working on our tan.


And here we are in July again.


Little girl, words cannot begin to express what you bring to our lives with your special brand of sweetness, sass and smarts. These are just a few of the things we love about you:

You make us laugh daily with all your little stories and expressions. 

You're so weird with your love of olives, feta and babies (you must be Greek). 

Your kindness and empathy when someone is hurting

Your phrase when you bring your reading, "Ok, I'm ready to do some learning now."

Your consideration for the elderly and family.

Your love of sharing. If you like something, then everyone should try it.

You light up our lives, that's for sure. 

We wish you an amazing year of learning, joy and fun!
