Swap Stuffs!

I participated in two Valentine's Day swaps because well...it's my birthday month and I love swaps. I got a lot of awesome stuff too! The two girls I got hooked me up!

The first swap was hosted by Erin at Love, Fun and Football and Megan at Table For Three. It was the Spread the Love swap. And I got the best goodies! My partner was Ashley from High Heels & Steering Wheels and girl hooked it up! She sent me an awesome package because I mentioned that my birthday was also Valentine's Day.

Not shown are the other loofah and a cute pair of socks! The loofah is in my shower and the socks are in my laundry. They were so cute though. Again, thanks Ash, I loved loved loved my box! Oh, and a tumbler. I forgot about it because it was't with the rest of my stuff. It was actually put up where things go. Hahaha that doesn't happen here!

When I opened the package there was pink confetti/grass in it and it was awesome! She knows how to send a package. 

The second swap I joined was Will You Be My Valentine hosted by the fabulous Kailyn at Sealed With A Kiss and Eryka at abcde. Partners in this swap were secrets. I think secret swaps are the best! I got Abbigale from True Blue Abbi and getting to know this girl was fun! She's so adorable. I sent her some fruit roll ups, lip gloss, some gum because she loves it, and an adorable headband that I almost bought for myself. I didn't take a picture but here's a picture of Abbi with it on!

I got a package from Alacia at Hoodwinked. She sent me a beautiful bracelet and some really pretty tape. My mini took the tape so unfortunately I don't have a picture of it. An example of the tape is on the enevelope she sent me. Look at it! She's so crafty my heart stopped when I opened it. 

I love pink! 

So yeah, I joined some great swaps and I couldn't be happier with what I got. You're probably expecting a birthday review but that will come Monday because I'm tired. Happy weekend cupcakes!

My Sweet Valentine

It's Valentine's Week my Birthday week! Yay for me. =) My birthday week also includes the fabulous/not so fabulous holiday of Valentine's Day. Oh...and before we get on to that if you wanna send me some fabulous gifts/cards/whatever be sure to ask for my address ;).

So Valentine's Day brings up love. And I thought today was the perfect day to talk about the boy the man. The main man in my life (besides my wonderful dad and my hunnie's kitty cat!) has been by my side for 3 long wonderful years. Just so you know, it's gonna get gushy up in here.

I was sitting on the couch the other night thinking how much I love him and how far our relationship has come. It sure as hell hasn't been all rainbows, butterflies, and unicorns. We've fought. Fought for our relationship, fought each other, just plain out had some fights about everything. But we've come out stronger through it all.

I love him and he's pretty much smitten with me. He calls me out on my bullshit, when I'm acting like a brat, but he's there when I need him. He lets me cry on his shoulder and hugs me and tells me it will all be ok. And there's happiness. A lot of happiness! We laugh and play like we're teenagers who just fell in love for the first time.He's taught me to have a sense of humor, how to do things that I never thought I would. He's helped me mature. When we met, I was a typical 18 year old. Full of jealousy, irrationalness, drama, etc. And I've learned how to get over it all. It's great! And yeah, I get irritated by his manly habits like leaving the damn socks all over the floor, but I deal with it by leaving my shit on the floor too. No, not really but it would be funny.

Then there's mini. The way he accepts mini as his own makes me feel wonderful. I'm not going to lie, I was super worried about this whole thing. Every mother that dates does. And she wasn't opening up to him for a long time when we first got together. But three years later she adores him and he adores her too. They make my heart feel whole. Our little family. I'm ready for family pictures to be hung up on our walls. But we have to get a place to live first. Woof!

So I'm ready for Valentine's day. I have the most awesome valentine out there.
