Oh, It Is Love

Valentines day in a nutshell.

Oh gosh, it was a really long day.

 Between a choir performance, craft club, work, picking up Valentines dinner, and a Valentines date...

I was dang exhausted by the end of the night! 

But had an amazing time :)

{Craft Club}

This is a Valentine we made in Craftin' Just Bee-Cuzzz today.

For all you new followers, I volunteer at an elementary nearby and run a crafting club for kids between 1st and 3rd grade, once a week.

This week the kids were on a complete sugar high and thus, were especially rowdy.

Lots of count downs and threatening of no candy next week did the trick.

But how cute are these "Bee Mine" Valentines?!

You can't go wrong with paper hearts, pipe cleaner bees, googly eyes and candy.

One of my girls made a Valentine for me and for Ryan, aka Rios and Mr. Rios.

{Wrapping}

Ryan's adorably wrapped present!

{Which I'll have him model for you guys later}

After we swapped gifts, Ryan surprised me with tickets to The Vow! 

Total tearjerker.

{Dinner}

After the movie we came home and made up our quick 'lil homemade dinner.

SO GOOD.

Our Valentines dinner:

Butter & Herb Salmon

Spinach salad w/ craisens, poppyseed dressing, cheese, bacon bits

Fresh fruit

Dessert:

Candy {Reeses}

Cream Puffs

{Love}

One of my presents from Ryan.

This "love" necklace, so adorable and simple :)

Hope you all had an awesome Valentines day, cause I sure did!
