Do you have a favorite month of the year?
Mine is October. I love the fall, and October is also the month for my birthday, and now Lex's birthday, too. Plus there is Halloween and college football (Go Bucks!) and the Circleville Pumpkin Festival. Yeay for pumpkins. Yeay for October!
But my second favorite month is February.
February is Groundhog Day. I love Punxsutawney Phil. Nevermind that it is an entire holiday based on a tiny little furry animal that isn't even printed on my calendar. I wrote it in myself. And that counts as official in my book.
February is the Superbowl. Since I like college football better, I mostly just like the excuse for a party...and the commercials.
February is Valentine's Day! Bring on the tiny little paper cards and crafts and cookies and the chocolates (mmm...devil balls). Our family tradition is to cook our own lobsters. At home. This the sole reason we own a 20 quart stock pot. This year, Kevin wants a 5 lb lobster. At least. We're watching the Charlie Brown Valentine's Day Special this very moment. I love Charlie Brown! (The little red haired girl has a special place in my heart.) And this year, Connor and I have a date to see Gnomeo and Juliet at the movie theater. We might bring Daddy and Lex with us, too.
February is my little brother's birthday. He's going to be 21 this year. Oh my heavens! Let's have a party.
February is the Oscars. Yet another good excuse to get all fancied up and have... wait for it... a party!
I'm not exactly sure, but I think we have as many parties in February as we do in December. Which is my third favorite month, by the by.
