Happy Belated Valentine's!!

~C~
Hey y'all!! This is out like a week late and I'm so sorry but things around my house have been crazy busy!!! So I'm putting it up today and you will be hearing from ~O~ on Friday or Saturday!

Anyway, do you have any traditions you do for Valentine's Day? I do!

It started when I was about three years old at my grandmother's house. I was up there spending a couple days with her and it was the day before Valentine's. She was going to be drinking a cup of hot tea and fixed me a teeny tiny cup since I was only three years old. It has now become a tradition! Yes, we drink hot tea through out the year and do it quite a bit but Valentine's Day is a special time I get with her fixing some of the food the night before (such as the cupcakes or jello, bread dough to make rolls with the next day, moose, etc.), decorating everything in pink and red, getting ready on the day of the tea, etc, etc. She always makes it really special time for me as she always does where Valentine Tea or any other time during the year! If time allows then I give her a foot massage the night before the tea and if we don't have time then I always go back and give her one the next time I'm there.

It has defiantly grown though! Now instead of just being me and her at the tea my aunt, my Mom and three dear friends come at three-o'clock on the Saturday before or after Valentine's (a couple of times Valentine's has landed on a Saturday and we do it the day of.)  It has also gotten more fancy! I really love this tradition and can't wait until next year's party!!!

Hope you enjoyed this post and have a wonderful day!!
