Wishing you all a very Happy St. Valentine's Day!! Sending lots of love to my sweetie today... we slept in and grabbed bagels for a morning treat {love me some cinnamon raisin walnut cream cheese from Hillel... I'm thinking that may be a how-to blog post soon}. We have a very low-key day planned, with some sweet treats involved too!
Today's post is dedicated to Valentines... you know the cheesy paper kind! Well, last night while scrolling through Facebook, I enjoyed seeing all my momma friends late-night posts with their kids Valentines {that they spent all night on... or just finished... or had friends over to help finish}. I must say, even the crafty do-it-yourself girl here was impressed. These mommas go all out! When I reminisce Valentines Day in grade school, I remember Care-Bear & Star Wars fold it cards - strategically picked from the mile-long aisle at Wal-Mart - bought weeks in advance, so you got the good ones... and then spending hours filling out each one by hand and writing fun notes to all my class mates {Saving that super special one for your BBFFL- haha}. I don't suppose this happens anymore? Maybe so, but I can't decide if this Pinterest-lovin, crafty do it all women wishes they were still cool... or secretly wishes I had a child so I could make these adorable Valentines for their friends? haha
Either way, I wanted to share some of my favorites from Facebook:
Mustaches seem to be hot this year! Why are babies just so darn cute in a mustache??
These two were some of my favorites... love the S'more play on words {and the heart Peeps} and who doesn't love a cute cuddly bear?
Saw lots of goldfish this year... guess they are a hot commodity around 2-5 year olds. The choo-choo quote is so flash back to high school and the Simpsons. Love it, Abby!
This was one of the most creative I saw... what a great {and economical idea}. Next year stock up on those .50 boxes of candy canes on the clearance aisle after Christmas and get to work making some hearts - precious idea, Nancy!
Hope all these lucky kiddos enjoy their special Valentines. Have a wonderful heart day with your sweeties!
XO,
Trace
