I hope that everyone had a sweet Valentine’s Day yesterday! Mr. Awesome and I had a wonderful night. I fell asleep on the couch by 10pm. Yep, I’m THAT girl! lol Here’s the thing…. my hubby and I have an agreement. We don’t need a special day to tell each other how much we love each other. We already do that 365 days a year. I did give him a card telling him ONE MORE TIME how much he means to me. I got a GREAT guy, that’s for sure!

Have a wonderful weekend everyone! See you on Tuesday for a new Tuesday Tip. I am going to share some great ways you can use the Simply Scored Board. See you then!
