valentines day 2015!

 valentines this year was a lovely one! 

i loved that it was on a sunday so i got to spend the whole day with my valentine and he didn't have school or work. it was the best! he was super sweet and got me a lovely red rose, a balloon ha, cupcakes and cookies...  he spoiled me! i tell him every year all i want is a little letter or card and of course he didn't let me down. even andrew scribbled in the card this year... 

i think he was saying happy valentines to the best mom! ha! 

we went to church and came home and watched footloose ha! so romantic right?! 

later on in the day we made a yummy cajun pasta and cheesecake. 

it was the perfect valentines day! 

i love you brandon grange!

BRONCOS WON! 

if you only knew how happy that made my husband.... he loves the broncos. 

right when they won he honestly looked like he was about to cry happy tears. ha! it was cute.

i on the other hand don't really care about football.. i'm all about the super bowl food ha! 

it was a good day because my husband was happy, my belly was stuffed 

and i even got a little sewing lesson in during the game. win win and win! 

^^we made some cupcakes and frosted them blue and orange for the broncos and i think hubby was to excited that he even helped frost them! {heart eyed emoji here!}^^

^^while we were baking and frosting this is what little tornado was doing!^^

^^SO FREAKING HAPPY!^^

^^i can't help but look at these pictures and laugh... 

brandon super pumped and my brothers pretending to be as pumped. ha!^^

can be found HERE. 

pss. brandon, we look young ha! and the house...eek!. ha! 

sewing! sewing! sewing!

i have started to do something i never thought i'd do.... SEW!

my mother is the best at sewing and throughout my whole life i have never really cared to do it. 

i learned a little bit when i was around the age of 10 or so and i really didn't like it then. 

annnnnd now over 10 years later i'm asking my mother to teach me to sew. 

first sewing lesson was simple just sewing a straight line and now this second sewing lesson 

was an actual project. i decided to sew a valentines banner. 

my mother showed me how to cut the triangles out and then how to sew them together and also how to sew the rick rack on and bam i was doing the rest and was on my own!

i ain't going to lie i was so dang proud of myself for practically doing the whole thing! ha

can't wait to see if i'll continue to want to sew and have an interest in it or not.

hope i do! i wanna sew cute things for my house. sorry hubby ;)

photo of the finish project below! 

^^i really was so happy and proud. ask my mom.... i think i said it about 10 times! ha!^^

happy almost weekend and happy almost valentines!
