This week at school {I am a school social worker} my groups have been making Valentines that show what love means to them.. without further ado love is....

1. Love is caring
2. Love is awesome
3. Love is cind {yes spelling is correct}
4. Love is family and kisses
5. Love is joy
6. Love is peace
7. Love is beautiful. It makes the world go round
8. Love is special
9. Love is good for everyone
10. Love is liking somebody {love this one}
11. Love is great

and to think this is what love means to amongst the little ones. See why I adore my job?




Library Love Notes

The perfect Valentine for the book lovey in your life!

{via craft pantry}- unfortunately item is sold out


Speaking of libraries I had a book on hold that I needed to pick up last night. Well, I not only picked up a book but I also managed to pick up an orange construction cone. I am a magnet when it comes to cones and garbage cans. I had seen a cone sitting in the parking spot next to me when I parked but when I backed out of my parking space I did not have much room. I didn't pay attention and when I put my car in drive I apparently took the cone with me. I didn't realize it until I started driving. I stopped my car, ran out to take a look, and sure enough there was an orange cone being dragged underneath my car. I am like "great...how I am going to get this pulled out." Along comes this handsome fellow (is that wrong for a married lady to say?Ha) and of course I am parked in front of his car so I have now blocked him in his spot. Creating quite the scene when all I wanted to do was grab a book and go! Well, this man was a gentleman and pulled the cone out from underneath my car. I was pretty embarrassed but at least I can laugh at myself as I am still giggling as I write this.

Je t'aime

Kim from the TomKat Studio has created the most adorable Valentines Day mini party notecards! For those who are new to my blog {big welcome} you will or may have realized that this past year I traveled to Paris and I essentially left a piece of my heart there. When I saw Kim's newest Paris themed collection I immediately knew I had to share the collection with all of you. If you are not familiar with Kim's work please check out her shop! Trust me...you will fall in love with it.

Parisian Love Video

I know many of you have seen this video as it was featured during the Superbowl and it was being blasted on a lot of blogs yesterday, but this video simply melted my heart.
Enjoy!

Love Letters

I spotted these lovely love letters over at hooray design via linea carta.
Not only are they perfect for Valentines Day but to receive one of these lovely cards on your wedding day, on a sentimental anniversary, or on a special birthday from the love of your life would also be ideal.


I couldn't image anything more lovely.

Decorating with Pink

After eating at this amazing restaurant this past weekend my love for pink decor has really been kicked into high gear. If only I could decorate a room with all things pink! In the meantime I will dream about these lovely pieces.
