Past Valentine's Day Creations

I thought you might like to see what some of our past Valentines projects looked like and where the ideas came from. We {try} to make our own Valentines every year and it's always fun to try and come up with something new, I am always grateful to websites and bloggers that provide tons of great ideas..

So as you know last year we did the Mustache Valentine's and chocolate mustache pop's.
If you like them on facebook Design Dazzle will let you print out the valentine for free.



I bought the chocolate pop mold on Amazon









Valentine's Day 2011 we did this:



S. liked the Mustache Valentines the best, but I think these were my favorite ones! I actually brought these to work and put them in mailboxes {which they all hope to receive every year now}. They are super easy to make, I think I bought everything at JoAnn Fabrics and if you use a coupon- even better!

We have done the You Rock!! Valentine's and I think I altered it to be a treat bag topper.

I am sorting through some great ideas for this year, honestly I love them all and S. and I are going to have a hard time choosing!!!

Happy Friday!

Valentine's Day Love

I love Valentine's. Not just the day, but Valentine's cards in general, if it is a good one. I really have fun every year trying to find origional ones for my boys. That they actually like. And will pass out. You see, Valentine's Day is really a girly feminine holiday and for a boy of 11- it's not that much fun. In fact if you ask S. he would tell you it's gross.

Here's a picture of what we did last year.  It was a huge hit!!! Hard to top, I know!!





I would love some ideas- so feel free to send me some!!! And will post my favorites soon!!!

Chicken Soup for the Soul

We are a house full of sickos. Literally. We all have the flu, well everyone except My Honey. So we made a batch of Chicken Soup in the crock-pot. But this isn't just any chicken soup, it's THE BEST CHICKEN SOUP.

Gluten Free Goddess: Chicken Soup for the Body and Soul recipe






This soup is just goodness in a crock-pot. I walked in the door after working {sick} all day and literally wanted to cry it smelled so good. I hadn't been able to eat anything all day, since I had been glutened the day before and my stomach still wasn't quite right, but this smelled like heaven.

I love soup when I am sick. I love soup. End of story.

XOXO
