"valenties" day

yeah, that's right...i said "valenties", but we will get to that in a minute. this morning i awoke to a very sweet gift from cliffy.

a heart shaped cake made by a local baker in park hill, complete with chocolate covered strawberries. yummy.

miss v enjoyed a nice breakfast of bacon (yes the kid ate six pieces! she is mine, it is official.) and a big strawberry.

but upon further inspection i noticed we had something extra EXTRA special....our own personal cake wreck!! BONUS!!! (if your not familiar with the site...do yourself a favor, check it out here.)

and so as we enjoyed a yummy nontraditional breakfast of bacon and cake (yeah, that's what i wanted...what of it?!) AND the extra giggles of now officially OWNING a cakewreck...i had an idea. what if this isn't a mistake? let's do a little research and break it down....
VALEN or VALENT are derivatives of the word valency. which by definition means either, a. Psychology The degree of attraction or aversion that an individual feels toward a specific object or event. OR b. the capacity of one person or thing to react with or affect another in some special way, as by attraction or the facilitation of a function or activity. SOOOO, combined with later half "TIES" it sound to me like the perfect sentiment for a lovey-dovey-cake! who wouldn't want their husband of nearly eight years to be "attracted and connected" to them....who knew? ;)

and in case you were wondering...the monsters were a hit. and apparently created a modern day miracle....all three people looking AND smiling at the camera (in only one shot!). so far the day is looking GOOOOOOOD!!

I'm so jealous of your very own cakewreck! And possibly of the cake-and-bacon breakfast, too! ;)

Really - you MUST send that in!
