The Season with a little "Extra" Love

Every season is filled with love, hugs and kisses but this season has a bit "extra". I LOVE Valentine's Day, so much in fact I unofficially changed my birthday to be on February 14th. I few years ago I announced to family and friends my birthday was moving from the month of November to the most lovely day of all. This idea took quite nicely and now that is when we celebrate.










There are many who despise the day, all the commercialism and claim it to be a "Hallmark" holiday. However I beg to differ, it is a day to love, be loved and be thankful for love. Everything is pink, red and oh so deliciously cute. The candy is sweet and decorations are over the top.













I generally don't decorate much for Easter, Halloween or Thanksgiving. Christmas we definitely decorate and fill the house but for Valentine's it is all out. I scatter the windows with cute clings, punch paper hearts and hang everywhere and put all my lovey dovey picture frames around the house. This week the spreading of love has begun and our house is slowly being overtaken by pink. Stay tuned though there will be much more to come...
