Love Day!

We had a fun Valentine's weekend....a nice time with family and friends. Lots of lovin'! The boys are quick learners and have begun to plead for candy or cookies on the basis of what "special" day it is. We didn't have nearly as much sweet stuff around as at Christmas or Easter but they asked their fair share of times anyway. We made some cookies, we made some valentine cards so I grabbed the opportunity to take advantage of this rare occasion to pull out a little bit of pink paper :) We exchanged some small gifts like flowers, chocolate, candy and a little game for the kids.  And, as always, I had the camera along to capture the moments.

Flowers from my one true love!

A "hugs and kisses" game for my sweet boys.  We have already gotten quite a bit of mileage out of this one! :)

My little "You are mine, Valentine's":

Chase - this is the updated version of his smashed up face - the bruise got quite a bit worse than that first day.
Reece - the strongest boy in our bunch!  

Pierce - he requested to do his own hair..."with spikey's like a dinosaur please!"


Hudson - who can be all smiles when he wants to be!

We made some valentine cookies for the boys' teachers....and we snuck a few ourselves too :)

Hope your day was full of love too!  Happy Valentine's Day 2010!!

love it!! your cards are quite creative! ours were a bit simpler, but then again, alani could run off and create them on her own, which she did MANY times and we ended up with a lot more cards than intended. . . so I decided she'd take them on Sunday, but then was sick on Sunday, so I guess everyone will get a late valentine :)

I love your cute kids.
I love the cards and cookies and their sweet handwriting on the cards.


And when did you learn Chinese???
