The girl who hated Valentine's Day...

This is a story of the girl who hated Valentine's Day... well maybe hate is a strong world, but I hated had a strong dislike for Valentine's Day.  Holidays are tough as a single as it is, but for me New Years Eve, and Valentine's Day were always the worst.  Just a worldly reminder that I'm walking through this life unattached.

That is until this year.... this year I have my dining room hutch looking like Cupid threw up.IMGP2177

The difference this year is I have a little pumpkin that I can lavish love on, and create traditions with.  I know it's cliche, and sappy but she has filled my heart with overflowing love.

We began a new tradition this year of going to my parents house for a Valentine breakfast with the rest of the family.  It was a great day.  I made some fun cupcakes which I didn't get a pic of... next year.
