14 Days of Valentine's Day

This year we have decided to approach holidays differently and incorporate more fun into our celebrations. So part of doing this is extending holidays and celebrations. So for Valentine's day we thought it would be fun to celebrate 14 days of ooey gooey love. Since tomorrow is February 1st this will be our first day.  Almost all of our treats came from our local dollar store. A few exceptions are, I bought coupon books from Wendy's back in October and Donald and I are giving our boys their purity rings this year. The most important thing is to have fun and let your personality shine through. This will be something your children and spouse will always remember.

So stay tuned for the next 14 days as we celebrate Valentine's with flare!

examples:
Day 1: Frosty Coupon with a scratch and sniff valentine's card.
Day 2: Hot Cocoa with a small bag of heart shaped marshmallows
Day 3: Popcorn (in red and white popcorn bags) with cinnamon hearts.
Day 4: Pretzel sticks n cheese (come in one pack, with 5 packs attached) w/ mini juice boxes
Day 5: Purity Rings, Earrings and/or play rings, depending on your child's age. And a few chocolate hearts.
Day 6: Conversation Hearts w/ a coupon for an extended bedtime and a nice long chat with Dad and/or Mom....

Our Valentine's Bags all ready for tomorrow.


This should get you started and give you some inexpensive ideas to spoil your children rotten! Have fun!

*I have my garland reinforced with clothes line twine so it will support the weight of the bags and goodies.
