Valentine's Day

We had a great Valentine's Day here in the Zinn household. Grant's client filed that day so we finally got him back that evening after a really tough busy season. It's so nice getting to see him again and Emily loves having her daddy back! He was really tired after working 100+ hours each week for the past few weeks so he actually came home and crashed. Even though we didn't go out or anything, Emily still loved her Valentine's Day!

This year, I decided to make Emily a bucket to put her goodies in. She ended up liking the bucket itself more than any of the gifts inside, but that works too, I guess. She likes to turn it over and sit on it, collect things in it, put it on her head (or my head), stick her face in it and make noises. It's pretty much just a great all around toy that has lots of uses. She loves it!

Emily got a new Valentine's shirt in her bucket, but unfortunately, I didn't get any very good pictures of it.  Here's what we have to go off of...



I don't think I have any new Valentine's decor from last year, but I still like showing off my festive house :)







I hosted Bunco this month so these were all of the themed gifts

And in case you're wondering, this is what Emily likes to do with conversation hearts (after it's already been in her mouth so it's nice and sticky):



it's extra hilarious if you spread it around your whole head so your hair sticks up!

We hope everyone else had a fun Valentine's Day as well... full of love and chocolate!!
