I have never put that much effort into celebrating Valentine's day, but this year it seems to have come at the right time.Just as we were starting to feel the monotony of winter, along came a reason to get us moving again. With the production of 28 Valentine's cards to be given at an upcoming homeschool group party, and the fun of creating special packages for friends and family, the week suddenly became jam-packed with activities.
The girls and I worked together to produce heart-shaped cookies to give as gifts, set up a treasure hunt for Jeff using felt fortune cookie clues, participated in a Valentine's party and created special packages involving feather roses, heart shaped balloons, and heart decorated picture frames.
All of our activites sparked good conversations about giving and receiving, which seem to be good lead up to our birthday season. Almost every one of Aislinn and Tara's friends have their birthday's fall between Feb and July! (Ashlynn -Jan and Tara -Aug being the only exceptions.)

In the compose window of Blogger's Create Post page, there's a little icon that looks like an earth with two links of chain overlayed. Click and drag to highlight the text you want to link to a webpage, then click on that icon. Enter the URL in the popup dialogue box, click OK and you should have a shorter link.
Thanks so much! I knew it had to be easy, --I din't think of highlighting it first!
That looks much better!
I *loved* my cookie, and was relieved to see my name on one of the bags! Thanks.
