Fun Memory

Ever since I can remember my mom always made my dad a Giant Heart Shaped Cookie for Valentines Day. We would help decorate it and then being super sneaky would place it on the front porch, knock on the door and run. My dad would always be so surprised that someone would leave him such an AMAZING cookie, and for the longest time

we never knew that he knew it was us!

 

To this day my mom still makes my dad a Giant Heart Shaped Cookie and places it somewhere for a surprise. Dad if you are reading this just pretend you didn't know about it!

 

Our Valentine Crafts

So I love to make crafts and I really try to choose something that my boys can help with. For Valentines this year I had them help with the decorations and we had a Great time. For starters the boys used all the sea shells that we collected and I glued them on hearts and then mounted them in a frame so that we have them to use every year!

Next I made lots of yarn pom-poms that I used for a garland and to hang from the light fixture. Next I Mod Podged letters with cute scrapbook paper. The boys got to help again with our Yarn Hearts that I saw in Disney’s Family Fun Magazine (Love this magazine). I used the yarn hearts in the garland and the light fixture. All in all I think our homemade Valentine decorations turned out really cute, and the boys were so proud of all the decorations that they were able to help with!

We also enjoyed a Yummy Spaghetti dinner since we were using yarn for our craft project!
