Valentine's Day Cards

Sometimes Brad and I are not good with words. Okay, I shouldn't throw Brad under the bus.  It's mainly me that has trouble articulating my feelings. Although one time when Brad and I were first dating he did try and use an analogy about sticking his foot into the puddle of love I just threw him under the bus there, didn't I?  Then again, I may have one time tried to compare our love to Houdini...but that's not what this post is about...

What this post is actually about is VD and not the sexually transmitted kind.  I am talking about Valentine's Day, people. You know that 'Hallmark Holiday' people either love or hate.  My thoughts on the day are pretty simple.  I don't need anything over the top, but I don't mind doing something to show a little extra love and appreciation.  I know people come back with the argument that you should love and appreciate your special person every day, but it also doesn't hurt to show some extra love every now and then, even if Hallmark has to be the one giving you the extra push and chocolate.

Honestly, this is really all I ask for on Valentine's Day:

One of my favorite things about Holidays and VD in particular is picking out the perfect card whether it be for your significant other or even close girl friends. With all that being said though, I have never been one to pick a card that is super lovely-dovey and traditionally sentimental.  Not my style, nor is it Brad's either.

This brings me to my favorite type of Valentine's Day cards. The ones that are super awkward, but still show how much I care about the person :)

::Cookies and Ice Cream::

::<3 U::

::I love you more than chocolate::

::Mr Darcy::

::You are not bad:: 

Fine you caught me, there is one presh card in there, but who doesn't love a Mr. Darcy quote?!


Cheers to St. Valentine,
