Valentines. . . a month late



Several years ago we started a little card club in our neighborhood. You know, you bring 12 homemade cards and head home with 12 new and different cards. Super great idea, super fun to have lovely homemade cards. But then we all added a few more kids to our families. Our older kids started growing up and getting busier. Life got crazy. And slowly, our little card club turned into a dinner club. We meet once a month and either go to dinner or go to a movie.

So much better than cards!



Last month one of the girls in our card group organized the most fun Valentines day couples party. She knows the most fabulous lady who comes dressed as a Southern Belle and acts the part the whole night. She led us in the (not so) newlywed game . . . it was so funny to see a different side of people. We ended with prizes, banana splits and a photo booth.



Nights like these make me so grateful that Nate and I chose Providence as our home. We might be quickly growing out of our house but can't imagine ever living anywhere else.

haha, love the pictures! I always hope that someday my little neighborhood will be as fun and perfect as yours. It seems promising, but you have a good thing going there. :) I don't blame you for never wanting to leave.
