Happy Valentine's Day!!


Welp, here it is. The big V.

It's raining here in Savannah. How appropriate. BUT! I will wear my pink dress and I will put on my red lipstick. And I will celebrate the most frustrating holiday with full gusto and excitement.

Tonight, we in the Fantasy Suite are celebrating with a "Galentine's Day" with all my favorite gals-- single, unofficial, or long distanced, at least we've got each other!

By the way, you want to read something that will surely make you go "Awwww...."?

I found these pictures a couple week ago taken by photographer, Lauren Fleischman, who is working on a project called "Love Ever After" that documents couple that have been married for over 50 years. The pictures are beautiful and the stories are incredibly sweet.

I am honored to be able to be surrounded by couples in my family who have shown me what real love is and what it means to truly love someone. My mother's parents are celebrating their 60th anniversary this month, and my dad's parents were able to make it 50 years to the day before my grandpa passed away in 2000. And even my parents have clocked 27! Wowee!

Happy Valentines Day, everybody!!

  1. Happy Valentine's Day to you too. Spread the love, enjoy a nice red velvet cupcake or chocolat lave cake and don't worry about the commercialism.
    We love you.

  2. I love to see you getting in the V-day mood(: I, too, am having a Galentine's Day with my housemates once we all get out of class at 9 freaking 30 tonight. I requested that my housemate Danielle make some kind of festive dessert (I do believe I saw VAlentine's Day funfetti on her shelf!) and we will all go see The Vow together at 9:45 tonight in our pajamas. Nothing quite beats cupcakes, a lovey dovey movie featuring my celebrity crush and one of my favorite actresses, rain (it is raining here too!), and comfy pink pjs. AHHHH...how I love this day!
