saturday night we got decked out to go to the annual ValenTIMES party . i got this dress from beck's shop  specially for this night. (by the way she's in labor right now !!! can't wait to hear the news!!!) it wasn't until later that i noticed i had tiny bows everywhere: on my stockings, on my skirt, and on my sweater. what can i say, i really know how to go overboard. :) my date looked quite dapper, i might add. addie came along with us, in a red-light femme fatale get up. i knew i'd get distracted at the party so we snapped these photos before we left home. and distracted i was... here's what greeted me as i walked in the door! homemade goodies for the sweetest of the sweets! and a bunch of cuties gathered round tasting cheese and wearing pretty clothes.... mmmmmm....dreamland. ....suzanne snuggles and carolann giggles. pure romance. me and my fellow etsyer are automatic posers. i have to admit, i felt so f...
