Happy Monday and Our Valentine's Day and Table

Good Morning Sweet Friends,

Hope you all had a lovely Valentine's

day and weekend, and hope most of

you were able to get out some since

I know some of yall are having cabin

 fever for sure..............

I had a really lovely Valentine's Day I have to say, 

 since hubby works we do most of our celebrating at 

night, but my SIL Susan surprised me by bringing me 

a lovely topiary tree of Azaleas,  and we had a nice 

visit over coffee and dessert.  Got to talk to Dee for

 awhile, then I spent part of the day doing a nice table

 for our Carrabbas take out dinner, hubby was bringing 

home.  Later in the afternoon my lil buddy from across

 the street came over to visit for awhile, his way of 

thanking me for his Valentine.

 Then my Sweetie came home and we had a really

delicious and lovely dinner..............

We also watched his Valentines present the "

Duck Dynasty video" of The parents wedding Vow

 renewal,  it was funny but sweet and then watched

 "you've got mail".........I have to admit I did fall asleep 

during part of the movie cause Dee's nurse friend told

 her that antihistamines can sometimes help with the

inflamation of a stye problem, so took some  Benadryl

 hoping it would help and it did but as soon as I sat down

 and got still for a bit I fell off to sleep, but then I woke 

up and watched what I think are the best parts of the

 movie at least.............lol

Am happy to report my eye is just about normal

again.......yeah!!  So happy about that and never

did have to take the antiobiotics......very very

happy about that!! 

Saturday we got to watch our real Valentine's

present.....Brooklyn,  so her Mommy and Daddy

could go do something fun to celebrate as well.

They came back in the late afternoon and then

 stayed and had dinner with us,  so we had a 

homemade Olive Garden dinner since I had 

made some Pasta Fagioli soup, so threw to-

gether a salad with Olive garden dressing

and made some garlic bread and we were

good to go...................

We swung the baby in her new swing and hubby

and them played some wii and had a nice time 

as always.

Then Sunday all our couples showed up, and 

our class is pretty much maxed out so they

 are gonna need to move us to a new classroom 

hopefully next week or the week after.  The

 last few weeks we have had some really great

 discussions in there too. So we are all having

 a lot of fun.........and really enjoying the kids,

as we call them,  they are young adults!!  lol

The rest of our Sunday was our usual.

Thought I would show you our Valentine's

Table,  since I haven't done any Tablescapes

 in awhile.

Hadn't  really planned anything since I

 had the eye trouble all week,  but just

 threw together things I had around the

 house and was happy with the outcome.

I used our wedding champagne glasses
since we had a bottle of sparkling cider
left from Dee's wedding celebration
over 2 years ago.  I suspected it might
not taste good, but decided to try it and
it was even better than before I think.

The salad plates in the center are for bread
and dipping spices..............

and used my wedding silverware too.................

Posterized affect

This was just a table for two..................

The tan tablecloth was already on the table
 so kept it so it didn't look quite as girly........
if that is possible........lol

Did you notice the topiary???  I had one a few
years ago but kept it in the house too long and
it died,  want make the same mistake with this
one for sure.........................

Full of blooms,  can't wait for some to open up!!  
Know they will be very pretty...............

Thanks for coming by..................
Looking forward to hearing from you!
