Valentines Crafts/Gifts

For Christmas my mother in law gave me a subscrption to Family Fun Magazine. This months issue has been very helpful with ideas for Valentines Day. The kids made these gifts for their teachers and classmates.


This locker is great for valentines cards and treats (made out of a cracker box).
As luck would have it the school mascot is a mountain lion..lol

These treats are a variation of the craft below.

Kaitlin combined her cards with the treats. (front and back views)





I thought this was a great idea. The hands are wrapped around a hand lotion bottle.

Poor quality photo but you get the idea. I bought the lotion at Bath and Body Works.

(on sale for $1)

* We traced Kaeleigh's hand...it was the perfect size for the miniature bottle :D

CHEAP AND CHEERFUL...I love it ;D

Poor Rosie!

Winter BBQ

Who said you can't grill out in a snow storm?!




Seasoned chicken breast wrapped in bacon and topped with butter and onions...Yum :)

Kaitlin's trying to catch snowflakes.

The Powdered Juice Bandit

This is what happens when I assume that my 10 year old is "watching" my toddler!
It looks like she had some kind of horrible accident or turned into a Vampire on a killing spree!



I wonder how long the stains will stay on her skin?
