Where did February Go?

I honestly can't believe that it's the 1st of March already.  It feels like Christmas was just yesterday.  Seeing how the month disappeared without me knowing it, I'll write a recap of the oh so exciting events that went down at the Richman residence.  It may be long so bare with me.  Here we go...

The 1st of the month started out with the 14 days of Valentines Day.  Valentines had been like any other day for me while growing up.  I actually laughed about it in High School, seeing all the cheesy couples get each other roses or ridiculous giant stuffed animals holding the famous "I love you heart." The only good thing about it was the Malta Munchies sugar cookies.  In my mind it was a cheesy day and a waste of money, so I figured I should put a little effort into it being a married woman.

Now I didn't go all crazy and buy stuff for 14 days, if that's what you're thinking.  I kept it simple and cheap.  I wrote a love letter every day, trying to pertain to the #'s 1-14.  I think it was funner for me than it was for Casey, because it really made me think about things and gain a better appreciation for him and everything he does for me.  Even if you don't do it for valentines day, I'd encourage you to try this at any time.  It was great for the both of us.

For Valentines DAY, Casey took me to Shaun Hings to eat dinner and went to "The Vow" afterwards.  Casey hates chick flicks so I was really grateful he was willing to sit through it all for me.  We went home afterwards where I found a stuffed dog with a note.  Casey knows how bad I miss my dog at my parents house, but I wont ever get one while we live in town.  If I have a dog, it's not going to be locked up in a yard, so he bought me my "town pup."  The perfect dog to have in town until we build our house in the country.

The rest of the month flew by in a flash...
Big Ivan had a Birthday party and we watched the fights.
Watched the Super Bowl at Browns
Mom had a Birthday (which went all wrong)
Browns blessed baby Zenna
Started my duet with Shaundalee

Discovered that I have EBV.  The "Epstein Barr Virus- A virus that sucks all form of energy from the body and causes depression and lack of motivation."

Spent my first night away from Casey.  It was a really weird feeling.  He flew to Arizona to pick up a truck and drive back to Declo, so I spent the night at my parents while he was gone.  Let's just say I don't like being away from my husband.

And to end the month with a big bang, I threw out my back at clogging practice yesterday morning and am praying the pain goes away before competition tomorrow.  Wonderful.


Casey surprised me one night with a long stem rose.  I called it the "Just Because" flower.
I've got an amazing guy that loves me.  It's the little things like this that make
a girl happy.
