I really love to make Valentines with the kids- this year though, I was tempted to buy the box of pre-made ones, but I'm glad I decided to stick with tradition. We stayed up late and made them together, setting up an assembly line of sorts. We turn up the music and it's so fun! And we definitely eat a bunch of candy - "one for the Valentine, one for me!"
Jake's Valentines had monsters and said "I've got my EYE on you!"
The girls cards were covered with a ridiculous amount of hearts and said "Happy Heart Day" :)
Valentines Day morning heart pancakes... (my breakfast was all the pancake 'scraps' leftover from the heart cookie cutter)
The kids had a fun and full day of sugar... ha! And for dessert that night, Ben brought them home ridiculously huge chocolate cupcakes - they were soooo excited...
My Valentines flowers from my sweet Ben...
Ben and I celebrated our Valentines the day after- I had a whole day of pampering - getting my hair done, manicure, and facial - and then Ben and I went to dinner at our most favorite restaurant - Quiessence. I'm lucky to have such a thoughtful and romantic Ben :)
Busy kids are happy kids.
ReplyDeleteImpressed by how well Ben treats you.
Jake, you are a charmer!
