Ahoy me "heart"ies Valentines

 

 

 Who wants to wait in line at a restaurant on Valentines day for 2 hours and then be rushed out so they can seat the masses waiting to eat when you can have a lot more fun at home and spend a lot less of that hard earned pirate gold...we had a pirate night dinner at home with the entire crew...

Valentines For Kiddos Week 1

In the past the kiddos pick their favorite "pun" valentine

to make and give to all their classmates at school. With 3-4 of them in school

we usually end up making around 100 valentines. This year I decided to let the kiddos pick

out the traditional boxed Valentines for their classmates and to spoil them, my sweet Valentines instead with little love notes each day of February leading up to Valentines Day. Here is a peak at what the received for week one....most of the fun was found at the Dollar store.

but it is fun to learn about other cultures, dress up, eat yummy food, and

watch fun movies...
