Happy Valentine's Day!

OK...2nd month...2nd tree - pretty easy!

Valentine's Day - my personal fave after Christmas aaaaand it happens to also be my birthday :)

So I already have a collection of sorts in place, stuff I've collected or been given over the years...



Also snagged a couple of boxes of ruby red ornaments on Christmas clearance at my local big box discount store - 50 cents a box, oh yeah!


So pretty much everything is inexpensive, stuff I had and ornaments that can do double duty at Christmas.



I think this might be the most expensive one I've purchased/been given: my ultra snazzy Radko delivery monkey boy. Cute w/flowers & candy!


And then there are those that are priceless:

Pictures of my sweeties:



A little box that was made for me years ago by my baby boy (the grumpy teenager who is now yelling at me from upstairs because the posting of these pics is slowing down his online video game playing - jeesh)



And a cherished card,




Written in the hand of my father, who passed away when I was 6...




My own little memory lane on a tree!


And now for a picture of yours truly decked out in my Valentine sweater. I actually really love this sweater (I know, I know - all the jokes about bad Christmas sweaters). This one is a keeper. Too bad you can't see the detail 'cause the hearts are all formed by a gazillion french knots. Very pretty...and some day when I shrink down to my desired size I will STILL wear this sweater - belted.


Hope everyone had a great day with your own sweethearts!
