Valentine's Day.
We had a very low key, but oh so fun Valentine's day. Due to the constraints of our finances at the present we had to forego our usual trip to the Melting Pot or MacKensie's or the like. Instead, Kyle made us a delicious steak dinner at home and bought me the Settlers of Catan card game (which is for two players). We had a blast playing it all night. FYI to Erin and Liz, Kyle also got me the Settlers expansion set so now we can all play and keep our marriages intact! :) All in all it was a great day. And to my sister who thinks that Valentines is too commercialized...all I have to say is it doesn't have to be. Kyle knows I don't really care for a box of chocolates, but have been craving chocolate mousse for over a year now, so he made me chocolate mousse with rasberries and whipped cream. Valentines is a day we set aside to celebrate love in all it's forms. How you celebrate it is up to and reflective of you. Even if you don't have a romantic love interest you can take time to reflect on the love of family, friends, and most especially God. We as Christians should be the biggest proponent of any day that celebrates love as Jesus said that is how the world would know that we are followers of Christ- by our love.
Thank you Grammie for my Valentine!
