Valentine's Stuff (after the fact)



Grace really wanted to make a Valentine craft and we decided on making a Valentine thumbprint family (similar to our reindeer family).  I framed mine and we turned Grace's into Valentine cards for all the grandparents and one for me of course.


The 14 days before Valentine's, I left Grace and Carter love notes in their mailboxes.  Grace LOVED getting her mail every morning...it was pretty special to her.  Carter LOVED ripping the notes in half and saying "I broke"...it was pretty un-special to him.


Grace saved each and every one of hers on the chalkboard.  (I had every intention of adding some valentine-sy paper medallions to my chalkboard, but as you can see that never happened.  boo.)


Grace made these Valentine's for her friends.  She said that the treat banner looks cuter when it is a little bit slanted.  Love her!
(printable found here)



She brought this "Cupid's Crunch" to school...m&m's, marshmallows, Quaker Heart cereal, and the only "x" and "o" in the entire box of alphabet crackers.


And, Carter was actually able to give his Valentine's that we made for him last year.


I couldn't stay away from those Target mugs!  So, they became teacher and Mimi Valentine gifts.
