We LOVE Saturdays! The kids get to sleep in and stay in their jammies until lunch time if they so choose to and I get a chance to get caught up on my LONG list of things to do around here. Yippee!
What I had hoped to get accomplished today: clean bathrooms, decorate for Valentine's Day, kids laundry washed and put away, and food prep for meals that I plan to make next week.
The list kept getting longer as the day went on but I am happy to say that it all got accomplished and now I can reward myself with a little bit of computer time to work on my blog.
I am also THRILLED to say that I didn't spend one cent on Valentine decorations. I made my own banner for the mantel out of scrap paper, similar to the one I made for Thanksgiving. I went up into the attic and brought down red flowers and beads that I used to decorate for Christmas and repurposed them. I cut a heart out of cardboard and glued red tissue paper on it to make a pretty decoration.
I am pleased with the results!
