Valentine's Day/Josh's Birthday

This year for Valentine's Day, I made these for the boys' classes.  We thought it would be fun to do something non candy for the Valentine's they pass out to their friends.  The bouncy balls glowed in the dark.
 My mom always put Whoppers on the door step and ran on Valentine's Day.  She would do it for each of us one at a time without fail.  I have such happy memories of how fun she made Valentine's Day, and Whoppers.  Josh and I always change up what we do for our boys, but this year I thought it would be fun to give them Whoppers like my mom always did.


 As Josh's birthday is on Valentine's Day, it is always a busy day for us.  This year we decided to give him breakfast in bed.  They boys made some great notes to give to him.

 Growing up we always had to make our own Valentine's boxes, Palmer is the only one of our boys who has ever had to do it.  He has only made two.  Click here to see the first one and the picture above is he second one.  He wanted a soccer field and we weren't sure how to do the goal.  I spent a few hours hot gluing yarn and Popsicle sticks together and I really do expect an upgrade on my old folks home for my efforts :)
 I helped this year with Hunter's Valentine's party.  I made 3-D Valentine's day cards with the kids.
 Josh is always so sweet to me on Valentine's Day.  I am a sucker for pink roses.  They smelled so heavenly.
Josh loves brownies so that is what he had for his birthday treat.
Later Josh and I headed to a movie and were pleased as punch that these were the seats.  Best way to see a movie!  It was a fun holiday.
