Happy {Early} Valentine's Day!

I skimped on the kids'  class Valentine cards this year so I could do a fun mantel project instead. 

And this morning I didn't have a single regret as I 

handed over a stack of tiny Monsters University cards 

"To: My Friend, From: Nathan"

I hope everyone has a  Happy Valentine's Day! 

Jeff and I have a standing couch date on Friday nights, 

but this week I am looking forward to it more than ever! 

We have had the world's hardest two weeks ever - 

battling every germ that has ever floated around Plano. 

Strep? Check!

Flu? Check!

Tummy Bug? Check!

Throw up in a bucket, in the car, in the toilet, in the sink, in the bed, in a towel.

EVERYWHERE!

I'm even to blame. 

At one point I took the trash to the dump because we missed trash pick up day - 

and the rancid smell made me pull over a throw up. 

Anyway, Happy Valentine's Day!

Here's hoping you and yours don't catch the tummy bug!
