FFF - Free 8x10 Collage at Walgreens, Pancake weekend, and a lovely massage

Happy Fun, Free, Friday!

It's been a rainy week here and possibly rainy weekend, but that won't stop us from having fun or at least organizing a few lovely, indoor activities.

If you're in the US this weekend, this is also a fun, free tidbit for you - Walgreen's has a free 8" x 10" collage print this weekend. Just use code GOBIG8X10 and pick up in your local store.  I made a cute collage of some of our wackier wedding pictures last time Walgreen's had this promotion.  It turned out well though the user interface to create the collage was clunky at times.

Otherwise, I'm...
...getting a massage tomorrow with my husband.  He sneakily bought a package of massages when I went to NYC and well we gotta use them right? ♥
  Aaaah...image from here

...making some berry pancakes with the dried berries I brought back...this recipe looks good though I'll have to make a buttermilk substitute
{speaking of pancakes, isn't this free iPhone app adorable?  A pancake flipping app?  I have terrible wrist coordination, but still what fun.}
...watching these guys (though my husband said he has to watch "Toy Story 2" first)

What are you up to this weekend?  Have a great time whatever you end up doing!

Celebrating Love Every Day: Prints and a free Walgreen's Collage print 2/12

Why should love and celebrating love be limited to one day?  Particularly when that one day causes unnecessary gift pressure, inflated prices, and a plethora of guilt-inducing marketing campaigns.  We're not sure what we're doing but don't feel pressured to have to go to a particular restaurant or exchange gifts (finding a place to live is definitely higher on the list!).  I mean, if we get each other cool things, awesome, but seriously no pressure here.

So I say celebrate love whenever you can (with some cool prints no less, can you tell I'm in a decor state of mind?)

Because we all need love
 

Remind yourself about that inner child 
 
 
 $40 here
 
$12.50 here - think this definitely needs to go on a wall somewhere in my home

Find it in nature
 
$12 here
Think about a favorite romantic city (and the one where we got engaged!)

 
 So dreamy...and only $30 here
Oh yes and for a totally free gift with your own pictures, go to photo.walgreens.com.
You can get a free 8x 10 collage (found in the "Gifts" section) on Feb. 12 by entering code "vday" at checkout. I created a collage of some fun wedding pictures and thought that would be nice in our room.

Note: The online tool is very basic and will automatically lay out your pictures.  You can only rearrange by pressing the "Shuffle" under options.  I worked with fewer pictures so each of the pictures stood out a little more.

Have fun with the pictures in your life!
