Little Valentines
February 14, 2018
Typically, I’m not a Valentine’s Day kind-of-girl, but something about having little girls and celebrating “love” is very needed this year. With my mom’s diagnosis of breast cancer and recent double mastectomy, and my older and younger sister also testing positive for a genetic mutation that causes breast cancer, everyday love is something I’m choosing to celebrate.
*Side Note: I love wine, hot tea, chocolate, and FLOWERS. I think I just wasn’t on board with a set arbitrary date. But why not set a date? And then make it a point in life to show the ones around you that you love them more often than not.
In addition to showering my littles with special gifts and cards and some one-on-one time, I received some beautiful PINK items in the mail!
I have been rug searching for over six months and it’s finally over! I love the farmhouse look, but I don’t necessarily want everything in my house to fit inside one box. I wanted something soft and with a touch of femininity. My husband had reservations about me wanting a pink rug. This rug has the perfect touch of pink, with blues, and yellows, grey, and hints of brown. It also has the floral pattern AND branches. Swoon. I originally fell in love with this Anthropologie rug, but not the price tag.
I also ordered these pillows from Etsy, and they arrived just in time for Valentine’s Day. Handmade and from the United Kingdom. Brilliant quality and colors. I will be ordering more shortly! I’ve already passed the site along to my mother-in-law, who is busy decorating their new lake house!
Lastly, my husband surprised me with a bouquet from The Bouq’s Co. While I love flowers from anywhere for the everyday (that I routinely buy for myself), it’s always nice to have flowers delivered. I especially love flora that is not the average bouquet.

Happy Valentine's Day, my friends! XOXO
