Lunch for my Valentine and a Card..

Here's how I made hubby's lunch a little special for tomorrow. (You could always do this for your kids' lunches, too!)

I set out to make little heart sandwiches, but my husband would probably be wondering where the rest the sandwich went, lol, and I would have to make a ton. So, using a heart cookie cutter, I just barely pressed it into both sides of the bread.

For an added treat, I made this:

It's a coffee filter! For the life of me I cannot remember where I saw this idea, so if it's yours, please tell me, and I will gladly give you credit!

Just stamp the filter, write a little note...

Throw in some kisses..er..hugs, and tie off with a ribbon. When he opens it, he'll see the hearts, the candy, and the note. Isn't that adorable?

Here is a very simple, yet precious card that Monkey and I are giving him. I used a white crayon on black construction paper and see those little red hearts? Those are our fingerprints! Awww, I am gonna be so sad when Valentine's Day is over :(

Preserving Memories


I love keeping and showcasing things my daughter has made or given me and I want to get in the habit of making it part of each holiday's decor. This is a little something we worked on for Daddy for Valentine's Day, but I loved it so much, I decided to frame it and display it on an easel. Now, every Valentine's Day I have another piece of decor, but this one is extremely heartfelt and full of memories.

DON'T FORGET TO PUT THE DATE ON IT SOMEWHERE! :)
