Ways to Say “I Love You”: Mantle, Books, and Cookies

February 12, 2014 by Aliesha

Our Valentine’s Day celebrations continue this week, as we decorate, read books, and bake cookies!

Here’s our Valentine’s Day mantle!

Heart printable banner found here (other color choices too).

I love my new thrifted topiary.  I painted the heart canvas.  Everything else was collected from other parts of the house!

We’ve been reading lots of “love” books!  Here are a few of our favorites.

 Vera helped me make sugar cookies on Monday.

Cordelia and Vera both helped me deliver the cookies to our neighbors that afternoon.

We’re trying to spread a little love this week!

    i think it is so sweet that you do so many special things with the kids on V-day. i am so bad at skipping it. i do fill a box for them, but other than that… i am a pretty boring mama on v-day.
