Smell the Roses

Mr. Heart surprised me us with a special Valentines Day.
Dinner at my favorite restaurant,
the kind of restaurant we only go to on very special occasions.
This Valentine’s Day was extra special because not only did he surprise me
but also
my mom, our daughter and her husband.
We had a FAMILY Valentine’s Day and it was the BEST!
When we arrived at the restaurant, these beauties were waiting for me…


Valentines Day Roses


So today, I’m taking time to smell the roses!


Valentines Day


What did you do for Valentine’s Day?

Hope it was full of love!

Blessings,

  2. What lovely photos Cindy! And what a special husband you must have!! I had to smile when you said you went to dinner with your family. There was a time when I thought Valentine's Day was a 'couple's only' holiday, but now that I'm a bit older and wiser, I think it's a day to share with those we love. Plain and simple. Thank you so much for stopping by today. I so appreciate it and hearing your thoughts has been really helpful! Have a wonderful weekend!

  4. We dont go out on Valentines Day too crowded. We go out a week later.
    My husband bought me the most biggest bunch of roses ever. 42 Roses for 42 years of marriage! I wish he hadnt because they dont last. But they did come with a pretty vase I can keep. I think he spent some of his bonus pay, AWWW

  10. What a wonderful surprise. I dearly love roses. When I got home my son had a dozen beautiful white roses waiting for me to welcome me home after my long week away. I love that your family was able to celebrate together- xo Diana

  14. Hi Cindy,
    Sounds like you had a super sweet Valentines day........so nice to get to spend it with your family, and your roses are gorgeous, I just love roses, course, I never met too many flowers I don't love really.......lol
    Loved all your pretty pictures too, and so glad you had such a special day.
    Smelling the roses is definitely a great thing to do, cause when we slow down we see so many neat delights the
    Lord has in store for us, like leaves blowing off a tree, as we are just driving along. That was my one of my delightful sightings this morning. lol

    Have a great Sunday hon,
    Blessings, Nellie
