A big dose of L-O-V-E!!

This Valentine's day I was planning on going all out for Lee..and apparently he was going to do something pretty memorable for me as well!..Then of course we got the shocking news of the lay-off and that pretty much put all of our extra spending on holt! SO I decided since we probably wouldn't be in Roanoke but for a few more weeks..two months tops, that we could spend this weekend doing something with our families! I mean....Valentine's day is a time to celebrate Love right? Why not spend it with those wonderful people..not necessarily your honey!! I called Dad and told him Lee and I would love to come make dinner for him and my stepmother, Tina! We have the best parents in the world...my dad then in turn invited Lee and I out on HIS valentine's date with TINA!!! We had a fabulous dinner at Red Lobster and we weren't even expecting it!! That was so sweet of my dad to forego his little date and invite us along! We had a great time..and even snuck in a little wedding planning! Last nite Lee and I came home and decided to watch Fireproof! That just totally made our nite..it changed our whole outlook and I think greatly improved our relationship..within a two hour time period! I realized last night how much I truly loved Lee and how blessed I am to have such a wonderful caring man..I couldn't have asked for a better Valentine's day!!! It was perfect!!!
This evening, Lee's mom, Julie and her future husband (our future step-dad!!) came to Roanoke for a visit. Craig (or C-money as we like to call him..YES she will be JULIE MONEY!)is a pharmacist from High Point, NC. He has made Lee's mom so happy and treats her so well! They met online! They immediately hit it off and have spent every waking SECOND together! The funny thing is..Craig/C-Money's daughter, Katie lives in Roanoke! She will be 23 next week! She is such a sweetheart! The five of us had dinner tonite at the Metro and it was INCREDBILY yummy! What a perfect end to the weekend! I'm so happy to be marrying into such a welcoming loving family! AND i adore Katie..she will be helping me with my wedding plans!! She went to school for event planning/and catering..she is currently working downtown at one of my favorite stores, dandylion feet!! LOVE you, Katie! :)
I hope all of you had a fabulous v-day weekend...and remember its not about the cards, flowers, and candy (thats a bonus!) its about LOVE--the most important thing in the world!! :)



this would be Katie, my future step-sister in-law! haha! This is the window display that she designed? It's so cute! I love the little birds :)



Katie and C-money! She's a daddy's girl just like me!! Love them!

If you loved Fire Proof read the book "Love Dare"... it's what the movie is based on!
