What I Wore Wednesday: Valentine's Day


How was your Valentines Day? 
Ours was very enjoyable! And my hubby was surprised by my gift, so yay for me not ruining the surprise by my blog post, Make The Perfect Valentine's Day Mugs! And he surprised me with such a sweet and meaningful card with chocolates :) 


For Valentine's Day, I decided to wear one of my husbands favorite dresses on me, my new eShakti Shirt-Dress! Out of all of the eShakti dresses I got he said this one is his favorite, so I have definitely worn it the most. 

I love how it fits SO well on me, thanks to the custom size feature! And it is a beautiful burgundy! 

Since it is still cold, I paired it with tan leggings and my brown boots. 




Our day was pretty low key, we went to brunch at our favorite local breakfast spot then went home to get ready for a friend's birthday party we were invited to at Chick Fil A.





K had an absolute BLAST playing in the play area with his little friends. His friend J was there so they sat next to each other to eat chicken and whap each other with their balloons. I was so surprised he wasn't scared of the giant cow that came out in a Princess dress and hat for the Birthday girl. He gave it TWO high fives! 




Then after we went to buy Big Boy Underwear for his potty training! Yikes! He is growing up so fast!!

Make the Perfect VALENTINE'S DAY Mugs!




Valentine's Day is this weekend! 

Yay! 

My hubby and I don't usually do much for Valentines Day, but I have decided to surprise him with these!!
 (Don't worry he hardly ever reads my blog! -- of course this may be the first time, but I thought I would risk it! haha Hubby- Just pretend you are surprised love!)

My love and I have always said to each other, forever and always my baby you'll be :) 
(Tell me what book its from in the comments!

And I thought it would be special to make matching mugs with our anniversary date and special saying on them! 

They are so easy and inexpensive to make! 

Here is How To Make The Perfect Valentine's Day Mugs! 


1. Go to the dollar store and pick up 2 ceramic coffee mugs.
(Yep! Just $2 right there!)



3. Grab some colored Sharpies. Write or Draw whatever is meaningful to your significant other and you, and let dry for a full day. (If you mess up, don't sweat! Wipe off with a Magic Eraser, wipe dry and try again!)

4. Place the mugs in the oven and turn the heat to 350 degrees. Let it bake for 30 minutes, then turn off the heat and let cool in the oven. 






5. Fill with your Loves favorite chocolate or candy and there you go! (My hubby loves the Raspberry candies but unfortunately they don't sell them in our town :( So I settled on Marshmallow Chocolate) 


Voila! The Perfect Matching Valentine's Day Mugs, 
because it reminds you both of your special moments together.



Happy Valentine's Day!
