A Valentine's to Remember

Valentine's Day 2012 was a couple weeks ago. And although the actual day was the most emotional and stressful day for me because of school, the weekend that followed was one of the best ever.
Brian drove all the way up to Idaho to see me for a few days and we had a wonderful time together. To celebrate, we got dressed up and went to dinner at Olive Garden (the best option for us, seeing as I live in Idaho...). We did a little shopping afterwards as well.
Brian bought me amazing purple heels for Valentine's and I wore them that night. It was quite the experience...haha!



 I wanted to give Brian something that would remind him of me, every day. I thought of the very first time we went shopping together...we were at Target around 1:00AM on Black Friday morning and I almost bought red heels that we picked out together. That was when I discovered that shoe shopping with Brian was better than with anyone else. So when I was out shopping for Valentine's, I was at Target and found red heels! There weren't the same exact ones, but they were similar enough. I then had inspiration to write a shoe poem!

The Valentine’s Shoe

Roses are red, violets are blue,

I have a thing for shoes and I’m pretty sure you do, too.

A lovely way to dress up our feet,

You have a collection that is sure not to be beat.

Comfort, fashion, or just because,

Shoes are definitely a love between us.

Shiny, smooth, leather, or suede,

Some have buckles, bows or lace.

A right and a left, each shoe has a pair,

A companion, a partner, kept together with care.

There are plenty of styles, colors, and shades,

Every person has a specific love or taste.

But even if they’re old or brand new,

Shoes can fit any day, or any year you choose.

Now, Brian, let me tell you—

If you were a shoe, I’d definitely pick you,

To be with me all day, stuck on me like glue.

This shoe is shiny, red and new,

Just like our love, just starting to bloom.

I’ll keep the left shoe, and you keep the right,

Let’s keep them around to always be in our sight.

And we’ll think of the day when the pair will meet,

To finally be put together, ready for feet.

And from this we’ll remember our first Valentine’s,

But tell me, my dear, will you be mine?

Here's a picture of my shoe:

I know it may seem a little corny and silly to other people, but the fact that Brian and I bought shoes for each other for Valentine's is just totally us. :)

While Brian was here, my roommate Becca took pictures of us and I absolutely love them.

Okay...that is one of the silly ones. Here's one of the more serious ones...

This one is my favorite. :)



Brian likes these ones a lot, too. :)

Tomorrow is our three month anniversary and I am happy to say that it has been an incredible three months of my life. Brian is so perfect for me and as my roommate just told me, we match very well. I can't wait to see what the future months bring. :)
