The night before Valentine's Day I was working madly on these treats for my Seminary class:
Note to self: Making heart-shaped rice krispie treats is NOT quicker than making cookies.
At least I don't think so. It seemed like it took FOR.EV.ER.
But I pushed through with a little help from my girl Friday, Lex. I had made extra, thinking I could run them to a few friends and neighbors, but I left Seminary that morning in a rush trying to get to the 8am session at the temple, so Bill ended up with the excess, which sat in his car for a week.
The best laid plans...
I was also madly working on my lesson/activity for Seminary --
The No Heartbreak Hotel Doctrinal Mastery Review.
It was an exhausting evening.
That morning I had one of our Seminary young women give me this beautiful rose.
So sweet.
After Seminary and a temple session, I went to work, then stopped by the store on the way home to grab a couple of treats for my Valentines {Bill, Lex, Mar, Emmett, Tay/Nae, Evie}. It was a bit of a flail this year on my part... I've been struggling getting my junk together lately, due largely, I'm sure, to taking on a part-time job, 4 hours a day Monday through Friday. One of these days it's all going to come together. At least that's what I tell myself.
That evening, since Bill was working in the temple, the girls {minus Mar, who had a Valentines date, lucky girl} and Emmett celebrated together at Chili's. Tay was working late, Jase is in Alabama, so it was just us ladies and the kids. It was a good time being together, even though we were all missing our main squeezes. Evie told me, "I like your outfit." Way to make a Gigi feel good, sweet girl!
I LOVED getting Valentines throughout the day from my favorite little people.
My Valentine had a lovely gift and card for me -- thanks, baby, you're the best!
I love you all.
