Hope you had a Bubbly Valentines Day!




On Friday a lovely package came in the mail for me thanks to a Valentine Gift Exchange sponsored by Becca's Blog from the Left Coast.

My gift exchange partner is a blogger previously unknown to me The Gaelic Wife.

I love the theme, Bubbles! In fact if someone wonders where I am this afternoon I think it will be safe to say I am relaxing in a tub full of bubbles drinking champagne and blowing bubbles with my wand and my gum!

I think it will be a well deserved time out, it was an insanely busy week and we were out late last night. Yesterday was the Roswell Symphony Orchestras Concert with Opera Singers performing the concert version of La Traviata. I dutifully acted as a gopher before the show in my heels, running from front to back as needed to help out my husband. I snuck up to the balcony after we were done with ticket sales and was mesmerized by the culmination of all the hard work to put the show on. It really takes a group of professionals to show up on a Thursday, rehearse and have a show on Saturday. Ben played Tuba as well this performance and managed to take care of all the little details before and play. I was so proud, and didn't mind sitting by myself at all, of course as a musicians wife one gets used to that. Afterward, we enjoyed a lovely reception, that included chocolate and strawberries, my favorite! We hit the hay at his great aunts house since the 40 minute drive home was more than we wanted to do last night, although we had to be up and ready early to get to church this morning as we both were part of the music service. All in all I would rate it as one of the best if not busiest valentines day ever!

Thanks so much to Becca and The Gaelic's Wife for making it that much sweeter!

Do not dare hang your head in shame. You did good! You have alot going on and that is to be expected! Many hugs and if you say you aren't going to do this again, I am going to come and pelt you with macadamia nuts! Maybe I will have to get Mitch to take a trip to Rio Rancho so I can come bug you!

I'm really enjoying reading your blogs. I hope you had a nice Valentine's. I got funny looks when I told the guy at the wine store what I was doing with a little bottle. Men sometimes have no imagination.

Oh how fun! I want to participate in something like that giveaway but I'm leery to provide my home address. I'm just paranoid. I shouldn't be I'm sure, but I am. Once I move in with David though we'll have a PO Box so I'll be golden :) Happy Valentine's Day--Late! Sounds like you had a great night!
