Oh, February

February. Probably the most misunderstood and under-appreciated month of the year. I mean it does have Groundhog Day and Valentine’s Day, but we all know that both of those can end up going either way- good or bad! But the rest of February here in Indiana is cold, uneventful for the most part, and the only thing standing between me and warm weather. This week I decided to kick the February Flu and replace it with my February Favorites, and I thought I’d share it with you here just for a little fun!

  • Serendipity!! Who else cannot get enough of this?? And the second release coming next week? Will knock your socks off!
  • Voicemails from Chris at 435. In the middle of messages from customers sometimes there is a message that starts with Chris crooning our inside joke “Heeeeey!!!” and is followed by her cracking up. It sounds dorky, but I think you HAVE to hear the “Heeeeey” to really appreciate it.
  • My super awesome incredible (and a little bit crazy) friends. On Valentine’s Day I went out with a bunch of my girlfriends who didn’t have any other plans for dinner and bowling, and we had the BEST night ever!! It was so fun to just relax and have a Girl’s Night right in the middle of the week. And I won’t lie, we kinda got a huge kick out of all of the awkward-looking couples surrounding us who looked like they were having the worst night of their lives!:)

  • My very best friend from the day I was born got ENGAGED!! Hayley, the girl I named a flutter dress after, got engaged on Valentine’s Day, and I will get to be a bridesmaid in her wedding next year! This is the first of my really close friends who has gotten engaged or married, so it took a while for me to get used to the idea that we’re old enough for this to happen, but I am sooooooo excited for Hayley and Austin!!
  • Random texts from my mom. One night it was a text asking if I think Dr. Oz is cute??? And last weekend, literally out of nowhere, a text asking who my bridesmaids are going to be. When me getting married is a mirage in the very, very distant future!!! She is so funny, and I know for sure that after an hour long talk on the phone with her last night, I think I would be crazy without her.
  • And last but not least, my Gramps. I got to see him a couple of weekends ago, and he is just as spunky and precious as ever!! Just seeing him for a few hours one night made my February infinitely brighter and happier.

I hope you can find some of your favorite things to get you through the last few days of February (and to the Second Release next Thursday)! And as always,I hope you have an incredible weekend! Talk to you all in a couple of weeks!

love, desi
