Fancy that

They have an app for blogger??! Wow. What did we do before iPhones? I know I rely on mine for everything and I'm very glad we invested in the otter box case because my phone tends to dive off the sofa onto our tile floor frequently!

So here it goes, first blog post from my iPhone.

Yesterday was Valentines day. I love holidays, I especially loved being able to celebrate them with my kiddos when I was teaching. There are so many wonderful moments in teaching but being able to celebrate holidays and see them through a child's eyes is so wonderful. Kids often see things differently than we as adults do and so often they see it in a much simpler way and I love that. Although valentines day in Australia is not as big of a deal as in the USA my kiddos and I still had some fun talking about it and making valentines crafts.

Luckily my husband knows me well enough to know that even if they don't make a big deal out of something like valentines day here, that he married me and I love celebrating every little holiday! A few weeks ago we were watching 'Friends' where monika and chandler decided to make valentines gifts for each other. My adorable husband thought we should do that too. So one store bought gift and one homemade gift was the plan. He can be creative and crafty...me not so much. It was so much fun though! He was working away for two afternoons on my gift. When I came home from work last night he met me at the door and lead me around the house with my eyes closed to reveal my valentines surprises. Afterwards we went to a yummy dinner at our favorite Italian restaurant at Terrigal Beach. It was such a wonderful valentines day with my valentine.

My homemade...err...edible gift for him and his homemade gift for me :)
