Showing Some Love

Happy Valentine's Day, my blogging buddies! Whether you love this day or can't wait for it to be over, I want you to know that I love it that you share life with me. And I hope you feel a little bit more loved when you leave here today!

Each year I approach Valentine's Day a little differently. This year I have been preoccupied with my 30 day journey and work and house stuff...so I took the easy route.

I work with some of the greatest girls. I really do. They listen to endless stories and give hugs and check on me - even off the clock. I'm pretty blessed to have such fun people to share with each day. So as a very VERY small token of my gratitude (and with the nudge of your BFF and mine, Pinterest)...

I picked these up at the store. (I paid for them, too.)
This was the "cooking" portion of the event. Stirring together the flavors. HEY. Stop judging me. It required a bowl and a spoon. Therefore it was cooking.

OOH! And a measuring cup too! I scooped the Teddy Grahams into the little Valentine bags.

(With a little bit of nourishment for the artist. But I digress.)

The little baggies of bears. (The store only had one kind of bag, so I chose it by default, and when I got home, I realized it had junior high text speak on it: URCool, etc. Grrrrrreeat.)

Perfect little portions for a snack.

I also had these cards made on Shutterfly. This is the whole card:

The message. It's still a little small in the picture, but it says "Thanks for loving me! Hope this day is filled with many hugs from God...I asked Him to send them your way! Much love to you, Bekah."

Rather than using a picture of me (because I doubt the work girls really want that) I used this picture I took in a B&B I stayed in a couple of years ago. (I happened to stay in the honeymoon suite. LOL.) I changed the picture into black and white because the colors clashed with the card.

The completed gift.

Get it? "Beary glad?"

I'm beary glad you're part of my blog....HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO YOU!!!!
