Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day with kids is a whole different ball game. Less romantic, more fun. Less date-night out (at least for us this year!), more quiet night in. But pure joy to see the kiddos' excitement about any holiday!

Ours started with planning and making Valentine's for their friends...

Dax gave glow sticks to his friends and personally addressed each of his cards.

Adelaide gave her friends bubbles. She was not overly interested in them, but helped by choosing which color tube to give each friend.

And they both worked on creating Valentine's for some close family (with some help ;) ).

They had a party at daycare and Dax also celebrated at preschool. Both kids were super pumped to check out the Valentine's they received from their friends.

They also got some cards in the mail, which is always special and exciting.

On Valentine's Day we gave them each a card and box of chocolates, which they were THRILLED about. Grandpa Mick and Grandma Mary stopped by to give Dax and Addy Valentine's and it was lots of fun to play with them! We ended our love day celebrating by cheering Jake on at his basketball game.

It was a fun, low-key, special family weekend.
