feelin' the LOVE

It's been a lovey-dovey month around here!
Here is Adelle sharing her homemade Valentine's cookie with Chelsey (someone we really love)

Here are the kids thrilled with their Valentine's package from Gramy and Grampy in Arizona! It was beautifully wrapped in red tissue paper and filled with "choc-lick" as my kids pronounce it.
Yum! We each got our own special little box of chocolates.

Here are some of the beautifully decorated cookies the kids and I spent Saturday creating to share.

These two licked this beater clean and then asked for the bowl. (Notice the hair-net on Adelle:)

I went a little non-traditional this year and we did Valentine Cream-puffs. Super easy and really yummy. We filled them with a whip cream and lemon curd concoction. That hit the spot!
We did cookies too!

These two could have done this all day. They loved helping with every little part, which is what it's about.

Have you ever made cream puffs with a 5 year old and a 2 year old?
Super easy you just need a few freezer bags.
I used this recipe.

We had this special friend over for dinner with his momma and made heart shaped biscuits.

Braxton secretly went into his room one night last week and made sure that none of us came with him. It was a surprise! He came out with these most beautiful Valentine's.
All by himself he did this. No help with spelling, no help with hearts, no-one put the idea into his head....(I was really proud and a little shocked at his ability on this one)
Such a little sweetheart! I also love how Dad's is in blue "boy color" I guess?

This is where it all started. My friend brought these flowers to me on my birthday and I had the perfect spot for them. Right on my table to go with the Valentine's scene.
LOVE IT ALL!
