valentines shmalentines..

Soooooooo Valentines Day is this week!

Don't worry, I won't bore you with all that mushy stuff like true love or kissing or holding hands or getting flowers or heart shaped chocolates or having a romantic candle lit dinner with a handsome boy. 

Who needs mushy stuff anyway?

I just wanted to post about my Valentines Package to my favorite missionary, and now District Leader! (he's been out 10 months today, btw)

I wasn't planning on going all out, but that's when I realized that since I made his Christmas package all cutesy and such, I couldn't let him down with just a plain cardboard box.  So I just put this together real quick, taped up the box and sent it off to North Carolina!

I gave him a tie (of course, he's a missionary, duh), a T-shirt for pdays, and of course Reeses (don't worry, I got the heart shaped kind.  I'm not that heartless).

I also had an abrupt realization today while complaining about not having a Valentine here.  Most people complain about not having someone to go on a cute date with on the blessed V-Day, but really, it shouldn't be a bad thing.  Once you get married, you have the rest of forever to have a special someone on Valentines Day.  But you only have a few more without one.  

I know that was quite a stretch, but desperate times call for desperate measures, right?

Anywho, I hope you all have a wonderful Valentines Day full of chocolate, chick flicks, and all that other mushy stuff that comes along with good ol' February 14th.
