Doesn't this sum up Valentine's Day? Give me some chocolate!!!!
For Katelyn's Valentine party, we had to design and decorate a shoebox to hold her valentine cards and treats. I found this cruise ship idea in Disney's Family Fun magazine and we did our best to copy it. We named it the "USS Katelyn" :-)
Katelyn selected Barbie valentines to give to her classmates (big surprise).
I'm embarrassed to admit I have no pictures of Katelyn!! She had on the cutest valentine top and black leggings, too.
On of our dear friends, Abbie, hosted her 3rd annual Valentine playdate at her home for the little ones. Katelyn was at school, so Brady and I headed over and played with his buddies Brooks, Ella, and Ryan. Abbie set up this craft table for the kids. Brady LOVES to do crafts and worked on a valentine card for his Papa (my Dad).
This was the most popular toy, Brooks' crane. Brady loved it! So did the other boys, so there were a few fights over this! I can see why...it's a fun toy no one else has. Brooks was so good about sharing it with everyone else.
Our Wednesday morning playgroup hosted a valentine playdate/valentine exchange. Each of the kids brought a decorated shoe box and valentines. I spent so much time on K's cruise ship that poor Brady didn't get as much detail. His was Lightning McQueen with his name on top written on hearts. He loved receiving Valentines and must have gone through them 5x during the day...just looking at the pictures on the valentines.
He selected Toy Story valentines and we attached a pack of Toy Story fruit snacks to each card.
Our Wed. am playgroup ready to pass out valentine cards and treats.
The night before Valentine's Day, we took the kids with us to Carrabas for dinner...one of our favorite places! Bryan gave me flowers and chocolates and we got him a scuba lesson, heart boxers, and a fun coupon book we made at my mom's group (no diaper-changing for a weekend, cheerios in bed, sleep in one morning, etc.).
A very fun Valentine's day!!
