Valentine's

This year for Valentine's Day, I wanted to try out the 3D Valentine idea that was floating around last year. 

Yeah, I am a little behind the times... 

Taking the pictures for the Valentine proved to be a little more difficult than I had thought. 

We finally got one for Lucas... Millie was impossible.

Lucas picked out the specific suckers he wanted. He didn't want anything to do with the valentine-y tootsie pops. Just the regular flavors. Pink was out of the question.

I punched holes and he put the suckers in. He also organized them in colors before we took these pictures. They turned out pretty cute and Lucas was proud to share them with his friends at preschool.

This was the best I could get for Millie. I demonstrated what I wanted her to do. I had Lucas demonstrate. But, every time I asked her to put her arm out towards me she thought I wanted "bones" and would just run up to me and pound my fist. 

Needless to say... we skipped the 3D valentine this year for Millie. 

I was able to co-op in Lucas' classroom for the big day. I brought sugar cookies, frosting, and sprinkles for the kids to decorate during their art time. It was a lot of fun. 

Later that night I did a mini treasure hunt for the kids to find their gifts. Lucas loved it! I think I'll have to do that in the future.... it was a huge hit.

Happy Love Day.
