Sunday we made Valentines to give out at Bible Study on Wednesday. They will just have to be stored until next week since everything is canceled because of more snow!
Pinterest actually came in handy! You can see where all these ideas sprang from by going to my Valentines Pinterest board. Word of caution: Pinterest is a place of major time wastage. If you aren't on there already just google Valentine Ideas and be done. Lots of people blog all about everything. Some of them actually have a few good idea, others of us just tell stuff and put up some cute pictures. And sometimes say "hey!!!" to our few faithful followers. (Hey Mama, and Grandma and Aunt Juanita and my Rendla loves! Love ya'll! If you read this leave me a little comment at the end. I only get one - from my mama - every once in a blue moon so you know I read them all - I may comment back -Then you'll feel all fancy!).
So, thanks to a supply of card stock (Thanks Debra!) and our awesome printer, here are our successful and adorable valentine crafts.
Ava and Jacob made Valentine cards that ROCK!
We used part of our collection of Lake Michigan Rocks (because I haven't seen the Louisiana rocks or Ohio rocks in a while) and some cool paint pens.

Autumn kept it simple.
John 3:16 and some Smarties.

Lora's is cool!
You are a Super Star! We wanted star shaped sunglasses but Walmart didn't have those.
It still works.

Jorja gave bear hugs.
Teddy grahams (3 flavors) and gummy bears (the good ones).

Elijah's was worthy of writing about.
He thought he was getting something super easy, he complained about all the cutting out.
Josiah pick the most costly valentine.

The boy has good taste - and he may have been greatly encouraged to pick this one - Thankfully the cars were the last big box on sale.
We made the little bags from gallon size freezer bags and our food saver thing.

Alex had the most involved craft. And it may be a favorite. TOO CUTE!!!
Amazing what you can do with Hershey's Kisses!
 |
| Alex's "Mice to know you!" |
And I made some too (well, technically I helped with the majority of those above but also made something easy for my little class).
I hope the candy makes it to next week!

That's about it!
Oh! except we are trying to sale Grandma's camper (Gene's mom). More details on Craigslist. She is living in AK with her mother and needs new clothes and shoes more than she needs a camper right now. I'm in the process of cleaning it up and hope to have it moved to the front yard soon. (Did you know that, Grandma? You now have stuff in the attic - really moving up in the world!)

If it ONLY snows tomorrow, instead of just making a cold mess like I expect, we'll have some more cute snow bunny pictures. Funny how excited I am not!
One more thing! Gene sent me flowers today. Only we never heard the Fed-ex fella come up, and he left them at the front door. Why would anybody use our front door! Especially in the snow. Fed-ex has been here before and always comes on around back. Weird!
Had Gene not been expecting them and had them tracked they may have sat out there till spring! He is such a sweetie!
And Happy Birthday to Marie-Anne and Adam! WOW! Ya'll are getting old! How'd that happen so fast?
And Happy Valentines Day to the rest of ya!
Love ya!
I'm going to leave you a comment so you will filled loved this Valentine's week! I'm proud of you for doing the Pinterest thing, I signed up but really don't understand how to use it and seriously - I am so NOT crafty. I spend too much time in the kitchen to bother with crafts, the way to anyone's heart is through their stomach! Love you cousin, keep up the good work!
