Airplane rides, family, swimming pools, warm weather and Disney just to name a few. We are back from 10 days in FL for a family vacation and here are some photos to sum it up...
It was a great 10 days, and I can't wait to do it again! but for now its back to work and preparing for mud season - more about in a little while :)
We kept things pretty traditional for Valentine's Day this year... flowers, sweets and little heart shaped cards. I figured why re-invent the wheel, right? :)
Clearly Matthew had the same mantra that I did, here are the wonderful flowers he had delivered to the house for Bea and I...
The great part about these flowers is that they came from the BEST florist in the world... In Full Bloom. They are neighbors of ours and did the flowers for our wedding. The owners are amazing and beautiful just like the flower arrangements they create :)
Even though Matthew is diabetic, everyone deserves a treat once in a while :) Valentines Day is a good excuse for that. I made his favorite cookies, with a Valentines day spin...
I put them in jars I decorated with scrap fabrics and ribbon. An emergency stash if you will :)
Lastly, it was time to make cards for all of Bea's little friends in her class. I used some card stock and scrap fabric, pleated the strips of fabric and hot glued between two hearts cut out of the card stock...
Matthew helped stamp the names on them and fix my mistakes :) then we decorated with stickers! This all happened about 10pm last night, talk about 11th hour!!
Simple and sweet, just the way I like to celebrate this Holiday!
We are experiencing a No Snow winter here in Vermont, and when the winters here are long enough, no snow to play in is an equation for some serious CABIN FEVER!!
A solution to this problem is hard to find, but last Monday Bea, Matthew and I got some winter fun in at the local skating rink!!
This program is called "Itty Bitty Skaters" and there is nothing cuter than a bunch of midgets whipping around with milkcrates on the ice!!
I wish I had a milkcrate myself, but Bea did a great job and loved it!! Best part was she was so wiped after, she actually took a nap!
Now I know where we will be every Monday from 10-11:30am :)
