Will You Be My Valentine?

I am so in LOVE with Robert Indiana's Love sculpture in Philadelphia, at Love park. How fitting for the city of brotherly love. Did you know that this sculpture was on loan for many years until a potential New York buyer was interested (they must have offered some big bucks because the city tried to buy it severly times but was turned down). The peeps in Phili were in an uproar when they heard the news. Because they loved it so much, Eugene Dixon, a businessman and chairman of the Phili Art Commision bought it and brought it back. I wonder how much that cost. Interesting story....well, I am glad it's around for the public's viewing. If I ever go to Phili, this will be my first stop.

These photos were from New Year's Eve 2009 and 2008. I was about to laugh in this picture.
Me and my boy toy ;)......okay, well maybe not boy toy more like serious relationship boyfriend for many (many ;p) years.

I love V day, but I definatley think its more about the person you love rather than gifts (well, maybe a small gift). So if you have a signifcant other, tell them how much you care and seal it with a kiss!

Hope everyone has a Happy Valentine's Day and Wonderful weekend!
