February 14th.

Oh, Valentines Day.

What a treat this holiday is. I always love the extra reminders that I am single.

However, it’s not so bad when you know you aren’t the ONLY one who is single, so why not celebrate this joyous holiday with all your single friends? It makes it a great day.

My Sister put on a little celebration that night at her apartment. We had many yummy treats that were colored red and pink for the Valentines Day spirit.

We also had a friendly competition and made Love Cottages (aka- Gingerbread Houses). My group consisted of Callie, Steven, and Mike.

We had the clever idea to make ours in the shape of a heart and called it the ‘Love Shack’

It was the best Love Cottage/ Gingerbread House I have ever made! It didn’t tumble down, and it was cutely decorated! We even made a Love Mobile with a Garage, an M&M garden, and the Love Fountain. It was top notch.

We knew everyone was secretly envious of our Love Cottage and wished they had thought of that idea first. We had someone come over to judge the cottages- and we got 2nd. We totally got robbed on that because we didn’t suck up and this unnamed judge didn’t even walk around our cottage to see all the exciting features. I’m not bitter. We know, deep down, that we got 1stplace.

Which leads me to believe why everyone wanted to destroy ours. I was heading to the back of the apartment to save our cottage when everyone else was destroying the other cottages and an unnamed friend knocked the pan right out of my hand and our house was broken into pieces. It was a sad moment for our team. We just wanted it up for a little while longer to enjoy it because we were proud builders.

However, Valentines Day turned out to be not so bad of a day. This one will make it onto the list of good ones.
Happy Valentines Day Everyone :)
