Valentine’s 2024

Beaming with Love

February 14th, 2024. 

The Baylies stepped out of the town and journeyed to Carrboro, NC. The Cheese Shop hosted this very posh event in this quaint town. Peter and I indulged as we learned of new cheeses and wines. The hosts delighted us with information regarding the featured menu, and their passion for their craft was displayed beautifully. 

Peter and I celebrated five Valentine’s dates; one has a boyfriend and girlfriend. Although we try not to take for granted any time we dine together, setting aside special moments to reflect helps us stay connected. I am reminded that anything is possible when you exercise your faith. I am loved and love all the blessings I have. 

That is a tasty plate!

Valentines 2022

A quiet Date Night dinner

I desired to revisit the indoor picnic scene and settled on creating a cozy space in front of our fireplace. Celebrating love with my husband reminds me that faith never fails. I am surprised and forever grateful he came into my life to show me true love and compassion exist. I face and continue to stand up to many challenges that leave me to question my self-worth, sanity, dreams, and faith. However, the life and love that grows between us encourage me to press forward with plans and build a glorious relationship.

Pillows, petals, lights, ready!

We were taking a moment to design a pace to celebrate, and unwinding played a key role in how we marked the holiday. The setup remained a crucial point in displaying the right level of ambiance. I researched a few helpful tips from the website Pinterest to pull off a dramatic setting for us to enjoy.
