I just love snow days. It's really nice to get them at age 25. Today was so nice. I crafted for the wedding. Attempted to put the whole guest list onto my computer in an organized fashion. I was able to do some homework and work out. I have no complaints. Well, except that JD was not here to enjoy it with me.

In other news, I'm proud to announce the ownership of two of my recent vintage purchases:



Aren't they pretty? I am getting at least one more. Actually, possibly three more for my final idea. I'm pretty pumped about them.

Today I made and ordered some new converse. I can't wear them yet, because they are for after I become a Mrs. But they are super cute, so I'll show you what they will look like:



I am not sure if I will be wearing them at the reception yet. I know I will be switching my shoes. And I know I wanted these babies. But we'll see what I decide for the day of!

So, this weekend is Valentines Day. I'm not really big on all the hype of this "holiday". But, it is nice to have a day to dedicate to being in love and be obnoxious about it. Friday I will be driving up to Mt. Pleasant to spend the weekend with JD. I'm not sure all that he has planned but I'm quite excited about it!

This is my 4th Valentine's Day celebration with him. It's weird to think it's been that long. The first one in 2007 didn't quite go as planned. There was still some ex related drama in our relationship and that put a little bit of a damper on the day. The second one in 2008 was exciting for me because it was the first Valentine's Day I was able to celebrate with someone I loved who actually loved me back haha. And I was given beautiful earrings that I still wear almost every day. The third one in 2009 was absolutely perfect. The whole night was a surprise and I loved every second of it. We girls act like we don't care about all the details and plans... But we do. And the fact that he put in the effort to plan a whole night for us almost made my heart explode. And each surprise was better than the last.

This year, Valentine's Day 2010 will be the best of all so far. Because now I know I will be cuddling, kissing, and holding hands with the man I will cuddle, kiss, and hold hands with for the rest of my life. It's beyond exciting. It's beyond comforting. Our journey is not a traditional love story by any means and I couldn't be more proud of it. I never thought I'd be lucky enough to fall in love with my best friend. If you have the opportunity to do so, I highly recommend it. He's the Chandler to my Monica, anal tendencies and all.

Needless to say, I'm sure I will have another mushy update for you after Valentine's Day about what we did. I'll try and spare you the lovey dovey details that make you want to role your eyes and/or vomit. But I can't make any guarantees.

Until Next Time.

A presto,
