Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope you all have a wonderful day filled with love!   Not only is this Valentine's Day, but this is the day that 18 years ago my sweet husband asked me to marry him.  He had worked at the bowling alley all night, and I was in a nightgown with a cow on it that said Love Me Tender watching an I Love Lucy marathon.  He came by to bring me my present.  He told me to close my eyes and when I opened them he was on one knee with the ring box opened in his hand.  He said, "I didn't even get you a card, but if I did, it would say, "I love you Kathryn Anne.  Will you marry me?"  I was so shocked I couldn't speak!  He looked at me and said, "Are you going to say "yes"?"  I then said yes about 1,000 times!  I have never regretted saying YES.  I love you BHW with all my heart.  Thank you for everything!  Happy Valentine's Day!

This was Jemma's Valentine to pass out at school.  Beth from Home Stories A2Z did these last year and I knew I wanted to do them!  They turned out so cute and all the other moms were very impressed!  Thank you Beth!

I hope you all have a wonderful day!!!

  8. You know I told you already how much I love these and I really do so I'll tell ya again! That is such a sweet story about your proposal. I'd say that's all the more reason for you two to celebrate Valentines. Don't worry, I think he's got the gist of it all right! :) I know things are most likely pretty hectic for you right now so I am glad to hear you all had a happy Valentines Day too!

  12. I can see BOTH of our Valentines Days were filled with lots of love. How funny that you can still remember what you were wearing when he asked you to marry him. LOL

    Jemma's treats are just darling! Cute idea that I will pass on to Ms. C's Mommy.
    for next year.

    Hugs,
    Rett
