I {heart} Valentine's Day

Thanks to some savy ideas that I was able to lift, Valentine's Day was very sweet! We had the usual heart pancakes (which hallelujiah! is a treat for the kids. Could you ask for an easier breakfast?!?) I got to volunteer at Ash's class party, which was a blast. First graders are just such a fun age group! After school we played Valentine's bingo, that a sweet friend shared the template to so I taught myself how to digitally scrap! Thanks to her generosity, it turned out great. I just may be hooked!

Dinner, a video and smoothies topped off the night! I made some coupon books for Casey as well as the kids and they got some new Sunday clothes. I was surprised how excited they were about the gifts--maybe because they weren't really expecting it, like Christmas or a Birthday. Ty has come upstairs wanting to redeem a coupon every day we've been home. Today the request is Chuck E Cheese. We'll see if it can work!

A few days ago I asked Casey if there was anything he wanted, and he couldn't think of anything. So, I got him something very unromantic that he had mentioned that he needed a couple of weeks ago--and he still loves me despite the boring gift! He got me something sentimental from when we were dating and some beautiful flowers and a dinner date for later this week. A simple, sweet Valentine's Day with people I love the most. How lucky...
