Vintage Coconuts 3 year Blogiversary!

 Happy Valentine's day! I have read I don't know how many Valentine's posts and now here I am writing my own. See that bunny above? That was my very first Valentine's card. I got it when I was 5 months old. It was from my Great Grandma & Great Grandpa on my Mom's side who are no longer with us.
(Click on photo to see larger version)
The card has been kept safely tucked away in my baby book.
 where I found this little gem of my first Birthday. I am actually loving my patchwork style highchair and Minnie Mouse shirt.
 "Give me CAKE!" (There was no calorie counting going on here.)
Okay back to the card

 Here is the inside. Which says just in case it's not clear.

"Hi there! My name's 'HAPPY' And it suits me to a 'T'
Because the chance to be YOUR Valentine Makes me 'happy' as can be!
And if you'll give my paw a shake, At least a time or two.
I'll wiggle my big funny ear and roll my eyes for you."

To Melanie
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY 
FROM HAPPY AND Grandma & Grandpa

The best part is shaking Happy's hand. He is either rolling his eyes or having a seizure..?! I can't really tell.
 Vintage Coconut is 3 years old today. What possessed me to write my first ever post on Valentine's day I will never know. I suppose Mr. Coco was busy playing Xbox. *lol*

"Message to Mr. Coco" I love you very much. More than all the crab legs in the ocean on the beaches and in the supermarket's. 
Even though you came back from the Dentist this afternoon after getting fillings and your mouth was frozen and you looked and talked silly. Pretty much reminded me of Napoleon Dynamite.... I still loved you not a crab leg less.
 This was the first picture I ever posted to this blog.
(Me and my best buddy Jersey)


I appreciated all your comments on my last post. You know.... The toilet cleaning one!
I enjoyed your stories & feedback
and the GROSS "Looking at you Gem" *hehe*
All of you are the reason I even made it to year 3 and I just wanted to let you guys know.....


Thanks for following my blog.
And following my endeavours.
