It’s looking pretty pink around here!
The kids helped me decorate for Valentine’s day this week and I must say that it’s just so cheery and sweet around here.
I LOVE love…probably because I have the best husband on the face of the planet…and I LOVE Valentine’s day. I’m not one of these cynical people that think it’s a Hallmark holiday and that you should love your spouse everday. To that I say, well DUH. But what’s the harm in specifically showing them that on a certain day? There’s none. Love away, friends…love away.

Sawyer took little Valentine’s to her Cubbies class on Wednesday. She’s not big into sweets but she loves marshmallows! She found some heart shaped marshmallows that she just had to have so we made little s’mores packets.
She ate her marshmallows on the way home and gave the cookies and chocolate to dad.

We tried out some heart hair yesterday and it’s sooooooo cute!
This was post-nap so you can see it held up quite well!
We took a section of hair and secured it in a ponytail. Then we sent the whole ponytail back UP through the section of hair. Divide the ponytail in half and twist the left section counter clockwise and the right section clockwise and you see a heart start to form. Secure the bottom of the heart with a rubber band and voila! Cute, easy Valentine hair!

We snapped some pics of the kids last Sunday in front of some pink and red Valentine bunting I made. I made these two little cards to send out to the grandparents and aunts and uncles. The kiss is my FAVE.
They. Are. So. CUTE. (If I do say so myself…)

I’ve had the privilege of having this guy as my valentine for 13 years! How blessed am I??
He is, hands down, the best thing that has ever happened to me (next to Jesus), though he’s a gift straight from Him, I know.
He loves me so unconditionally, so wholly…He is definitely the better half of this relationship, no doubt. He points us straight to Jesus and exudes the fruit of the Spirit more than any person I’ve ever met.
Happy Valentine’s Day, honey! YOU are why I love this day! I pray I can love you just as well as you love me; I’ll die trying, that’s for sure. I don’t even want to think about doing this life without you. Smooch. Smooch. Smooch.
Happy heart day!
