Happy Valentine's Day!

Kamden's Nursery teacher brought him this giant, yummy Valentine cookie and he couldn't wait to get it open before he wanted to eat it!

Ethan has been so excited for Valentine's Day this year, he made cards and helped make cupcakes for friends and family and every morning for the last week he's come downstairs and the first thing he said was "Happy Valentine's, Mom." Then during the day he'd ask at least three times how many more days until Valentine's.

We celebrated with a yummy lunch at my parent's house where my brother Ryan made delicious pasta. (He spent 2 years in Italy, so just imagine how good it was!) I made these, this, and these to go with the meal.
We also had heart-shaped jell-o jigglers, a tradition for Valentine's Day while we were growing up. The boys got jell-o all over their clothes when they sat on the table eating a plate of it before lunch, so they enjoyed their meal in their undies.



We went to a birthday party that afternoon and my parents watched the boys that evening while Jeff and I went out. We had a great Valentine's Day and hope you did too!
