{treats for my sweet}

I can't say we had the most exciting Valentine's Day in the world...but we made the most of the little time we actually had to spend together. Zach went to work in the morning. I dropped off Lucy at 12:30 and went to work after that. He picked her up at 5:30 and brought her home. Then I was home by 8:30pm. This is how it works every Tuesday through Thursday for us.

Before leaving for work yesterday, though, I did manage to finish and put up Zach's little Valentine surprise. I got my inspiration on Pinterest (three cheers for actually making something I pinned!) and I love how it turned out.

I already had a pack of these cute little brown craft bags, so I embellished them and gave each one a number (1-10). Each one contained a little piece of cardstock with a reason that I love and adore the mister. Of course...I could have come up with a million reasons, but who has time to embellish that many bags?! :) So anyhoo...when I was finally finished putting it all together, I strung it up on the fireplace for him to find when he came home from work.

 It's safe to say...he absolutely LOVED it! Woo!

I should mention that I came home last night to my favorite meal, a bottle of my favorite wine, and my all time favorite candy bar (twix baby!) for dessert. There was also a sweet little card that he and Lucy made together. {swoon}

The day before V-day, I had also whipped up some of these delicious chocolate ganache truffles (with a touch of Bailey's Irish Cream)....sooo yummy (if I do say so myself!)...

My sweet mama also came to visit the day before yesterday. Have I mentioned how much she rocks?! She came to spend the day with baby and I and helped me out by babysitting while I went to get my hair chopped off (picture to come soon). Of course, Mom never comes empty handed and had these beautiful and delicious homemade heart marshmallow's for us (her baking talents are endless!)...

Is your mouth watering yet?!

It sure is a good thing that Zach and I decided it was time to start exercising again!! 

Hope you all enjoyed a day full of love and sweet treats!
