Since Valentine's Day fell on Sunday, I had the girls wear red. And while they were looking so festive, I had them grab the boys for a picture. Less than cooperative.
The kids thought it was fun when they were behind the camera.
Grandma Hillman had invited us over for dinner, so we made some chocolate covered strawberries. I don't know if I like looking at the or eating them more, it's a toss up. They are so pretty.
The kids get to gather around the table in the kitchen where clean up is much easier. Over the years, things around the table have continued to get louder. They sure to enjoy being around each other.
We grabbed the box of supplies that were still gathered from Hudson's class party. The cupid arrow shoot was a hit. You use a q-tip and straw to create a blow dart that you try to get through the suspended hearts.
Next up, unwrap a chocolate kiss while wearing oven mitts. I'm pretty sure every single kid cheated on this, but it was fun to watch.
We had heart-shaped notebooks for everyone. We all took turns writing something nice about each person. It was fun to watch people read through them and smile. We're not a very expressive family, so it was fun to hear what people had to say.
Uncle Tracy and Aunt NiCole were swinging people and throwing them onto the couch. You had to get in line and only the manageable sized kids got a turn.
I found these warm, fuzzy, heart sweatshirts and thought they made the perfect Valentine's gift. I like to get everyone a little surprise to show how much I love them.
