Post Valentines

Happy post Valentines Day to you!  I was so busy this weekend getting ready for yesterday. Making my valentines for the kids and figuring out what Joe and I wanted to make for our V-Day dinner.  We were both excited to make this recipe from Real Simple and its officially now my favorite meal!! Are you a lover or hater of this holiday? I'm kinda in between.  Although I don't need a day on the calender to tell me when or how to share my affection, I also don't need a reason not to. I think Joe and I do a good job of showing how much we care and appreciate each other in small everyday ways. And that's as much and all I could ask for.  How did you spend your special day yesterday?

Loving: Hand drawn Valentines

Today I'm loving these super cute and personal hand drawn Valentines by Two Brunettes.  Aren't they so adorable! How great would it be to send these out!  But if it's not in the budget they also have a printable download that you can print for free!  To download click here.  Ahhh love...it's in the air and soon to be on paper :)

L O V E is in the Air

This time of year usually brings the inner grade schooler out of me. I have fond memories of going to the store to pick out valentines to hand out to my friends in class. Fast forward a few years with a big box of craft paper, paints, markers, and stickers and I've got everything I need to create my own. I got started on these the other day for my nieces and nephews and turned my apartment upside down! These days there is nothing like the feeling of sending a little love in the mail!
