Valentines Festivities.

This was probably one of the best Valentines Days I've ever had.
No pressure, just fun and love between my husband and I!

The boy ran out to the store and came back with tons of surprises including:
flowers, balloons, chocolates, ice cream, and my all time favorite, gum!



Most of the day was spent preparing a special Valentines treat for the members of our small group at church.
I really wanted to make it fun for everyone so in true Jenna style I went a bit overboard!
Unfortunately I didn't get very good pictures because I was too busy trying to set everything up.

I set up a Candy Bar with little bags to fill and take home


The theme was things that are meant to be together which was perfect because I've been wanting
to make these super cute chocolates!


I also made each couple their very own mini-wedding cake


Homemade cookies. "You're the chocolate chip to my cookie"


You're the veggies to my dip

You're the cheese to my crackers

All of the work was so worth it.
Girls from another group even came over to take pictures.

Our meeting went really well too. We were separated into groups of men and women and it was so
awesome to see that there were several girls going through the same struggles that I am.
It's always nice to know you aren't alone and we all felt so much closer in the end.

My Valentine.


I've never really cared much for Valentines Day but I guess being married changes things
because all I want to do today is give my husband loves and tell him how cool he is.

Dear Tim,
Thank you for coming into my life at just the right time and changing it for the better.
Happy Valentines Day Cuddlebug!
Love,
Cuddlebug

Mundane.


Mundane.
Lately I feel my life has been just that.
Sure I have the occasional project or new symptom to spice up my life,
but I'm feeling restless.

This is usually when I start to lack motivation but I'm going to try and
keep on track.


As far as my health goes, I'm starting to feel a bit defeated.
Needless to say it's been a tough week.

Thankfully Rooted has been opening my eyes to something far greater than myself.
Because let's face it, we tend to focus on ourselves far too much.

Prayers and thoughts of encouragement and healing are appreciated.

On a much lighter note, I received an email last night offering me this amazing
opportunity to design for a June wedding.

Now that's not very mundane, is it?

That's right!
The "Forever and Ever" Boutonniere was featured in a "Yellow Wedding" List!




You have no idea how excited I was when I saw my picture labeled "Featured"!

2.2.12



Happy Groundhog Day!
Good ol' Punxsutawney Phil showed up and told us theres 6 more weeks of winter.
If it's anything like our winter has been so far, it will be 80 degrees all week.

Lately I've just been trying to stay busy and motivated. It seems to be working.
I decided on a color for the craft room and I plan to start painting soon.

Yesterday I met Emma in Temecula for a visit to Hobby Lobby, Sephora, and Williams Sonoma!
To top it all off I had my very first cupcake from
Truly Madly Sweetly Bakery and it was
AMAZING!
I had what they call the "Whiteout". A vanilla bean cupcake with Vanilla bean buttercream frosting!


Poor Emma was ready to eat her cupcake and I stopped her to take a picture. I forgot she's not used to me yet :)

Today I had to see an orthodontist for the jaw pain I've been experiencing.
The doctor decided I probably clench my teeth in my sleep and when I'm stressed
(which for me is most of the time).

But I mostly brought that up so I could show you the office.
I've never seen anything like it.
A motocross themed dental office complete with a real dirt bike and staff wearing pit crew gear!

I had to find some pictures to prove it:
