Valentines Day

It is a little past valentines day but this year was so good I just had to relive it through the blog. I can't remember if I blogged about it but summer 2008 I lost the large diamond in my wedding ring when I took the kids swimming at Allred's pond. Since then I have worn nothing or a $6.00 ring I bought at claires (but then the fake stone fell out of that too--I'm death to diamonds). Anyway I woke up early on v-day to shower and get ready for Zoe's Princess party. I found this note on my bathroom mirror.

Then I got to go on a treasure hunt, just imagine my excitement, I LOVE TREASURE HUNTS! I am always putting one together for our kids and Michael always makes fun of me for it. After finding four more not so easy clues I found my new diamond in my wedding ring. I couldn't believe that Michael did this all on his own, in fact I was pretty sure Mom or Courtney had been involved in some small way at least but they hadn't a clue about either. When all was said and done Michael discovered he didn't even have to buy me a diamond--I had so much fun on the treasure hunt he said I could have found a pixie stik and still been happy! It's true the fact he went to the jewler, did the clues and hid them and kept the secret to surprise me was worth far more than any diamonds, I felt so loved. Great valentines day honey--can't wait for Mothers day!!(j/k Michael!)
