Happy Valentine's Day!

I started the day with a Valentine exchange with my husband. Joel got a heart creature card that I made in afterschool, and with a design suggestion from Peyton. He loves it, also two new books. I received a very pretty card, chocolate and a lunch date, also a visit to Paper Skyscraper...always a fun place to look around. After BB class we met at the gym. I am definitely feeling the workout, got some miles in, a lot of upper body and while Joel was finishing up I grabbed a mat and got some more push-ups and sit-ups done and then some stretching. Then home to getvready and off to Optimist Hall for lunch. Pasta and dumplings with some veggies from the Ethiopian restaurant. Perfect lunch! Tomorrow is poomsae class, then meeting Joel at the gym again. He's altered his regular workout schedule to go more with me on the weekends and we are both really liking it. Have a great rest of the weekend!
