I made a special trip to a certain Starbucks to get my hands on one of these adorable Valentine's inspired Starbucks cups :) The Starbucks near my apartment didn't have them...sad!
This wasn't a Valentine's present, but Adam got me this mug last week, and I love it. It says "LOVES" on one side (that's one of our "things") and the phrase, "I love you more than coffee in the morning" is wrapped around the bottom, leading to the flower. Clever isn't he? :)
We bought the cup at Starbucks
I painted my nails a saucy red-ish color with some sparkle on my ring fingers. Hopefully I'll be getting some other kinda sparkle for that finger soon if you know what I mean ;)
The color is E-nuf is E-nuf by Essie
I even decorated my apartment a tiny bit!
This love banner was inspired by this one that Meg made :)
I made this for Adam :) I write a new note every few days and send him a
picture since we don't live together. Here is the free printable so you
can make one, too!
And then Valentine's Day arrived!
I woke up and worked out and went to class..the usual.
But when I got home from class I found this at my door...
My favorite part was his note! haha. Not normal is right :)
I'm not one to hate on roses, but I'd much prefer a bouquet of fun daises.
Looks like he knows me pretty well, huh?

Adam left work a little early and came to my apartment.
We planned to make homemade sushi...
Looks good right?! WRONG! It was awful haha. It was so much harder than we thought, especially since we didn't have a rice cooker. And it kinda grossed us out a little. But we had so much fun laughing and trying to make it work. The kitchen was covered in sticky rice and it reeked of rice vinegar! Note to self: when craving sushi, go out and BUY it ;)
So that picture up there is what should have happened and here is what actually happened...
We ordered pizza, ate some chocolate covered strawberries, drank some wine, and watched New Girl. Oh yeah, and we danced around my apartment to John Mayer. If it makes it any better, we both dressed up in cute red outfits ;)
But we had SUCH a blast just hanging out and being together. I'd say this was one of my top Valentine's Days :) . AND I know I said I was gonna rock the red pants on Valentine's Day, but there was a little issue. I tried them on and they were HUGE on me. I forgot to wash them so that they would shrink...Valentine's Day just crept up on me I guess!
So in place of posting a picture of my red pants, I figured I'd post a picture of my red lips! This is what I wore to go see The Vow this weekend. And I'm pale, but I promise I'm not THAT pale. Must have been the flash or something...yikes!
Shoes: TOMS flats courtesy of my sweet Grandma
Top/Jeans: LOFT
Necklace: Target
Jacket: Levi's
I am so stoked that I get to cross #19 "Wear red lip stick in public at least once" off of my 52 in 2012 list! . My thoughts on The Vow: Ehh. It was cute, but I expected more. The acting and story line were both great, but I feel like the movie was underdeveloped or something? Still had me crying though!
